What to know about home security shutters in Tyne and Wear
Domestic shutters use slim double-skin aluminium laths filled with foam, which keeps them light and quiet. Shutters protect glazing from storm debris and reduce noise from busy roads. Closed shutters add a layer of insulation and can block nearly all daylight, which helps bedrooms and media rooms.
Patio and bi-fold doors can be covered by a single wide shutter, protecting the largest area of glass. Electric operation with a wall switch, remote or timer makes it easy to close every shutter in the house at once.
Features to choose from
- Colours matched to window frames
- Patio and bi-fold door shutters

Covering Tyne and Wear
We cover Tyne and Wear from Newcastle upon Tyne to Sunderland, South Shields and Gateshead, with 12 towns listed below. Planning decisions for external shutters sit with your local council in England, and we check the position at survey.
Rules in England
Shutters on a house: planning
For houses in England some small external changes fall under permitted development, but flats and maisonettes do not have the same rights, and listed buildings, conservation areas and Article 4 directions restrict changes to a property's appearance. If any of these apply, check with your council before ordering.
Electrical work
Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations. In homes in England, new circuits are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations, so the work is done by a registered electrician who can self-certify it, or notified to building control.
Safety of powered shutters
Powered doors and shutters are treated as machinery. The installer commissions them with a risk assessment, safety devices where the risk calls for them and force checks to BS EN 12453, then hands over a declaration of conformity and maintenance instructions. In workplaces, the employer or whoever controls the premises must keep doors maintained and safe for staff and visitors.

Before you book in Tyne and Wear
Do home shutters help with heating bills?
Closed shutters add an insulating layer over the glass and reduce draughts, which helps keep heat in at night. The effect depends on the windows you already have.
Do I need planning permission for shutters on my house?
It depends on the property. Houses in England often have permitted development rights for minor changes, but flats do not, and listed buildings, conservation areas and Article 4 areas add restrictions. Rules differ in Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. We flag it at survey; your council has the final say.
How noisy are electric home shutters?
Domestic tube motors are quiet, and foam-filled laths reduce rattle, so shutters can be used in bedrooms without disturbing anyone.
Can you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
Do you work with landlords and managing agents?
Yes. We quote, fit and service shutters for landlords, managing agents and facilities teams, including multi-site planned maintenance.
