Choosing home security shutters for premises in Houghton-le-Spring
Smart controllers can link shutters to timers so the house looks occupied while you are away. Patio and bi-fold doors can be covered by a single wide shutter, protecting the largest area of glass.
The box can sit on the face of the wall, inside the window reveal, or be built in during an extension or new build. Shutters protect glazing from storm debris and reduce noise from busy roads.

- Manual override or battery backup on escape windows
- Quiet operation suited to bedrooms
- Patio and bi-fold door shutters
- Face-fixed, reveal-fixed or built-in boxes
- Colours matched to window frames
- Slim foam-filled aluminium laths

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.

Questions about home security shutters in Houghton-le-Spring
Do you cover Houghton-le-Spring?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Houghton-le-Spring. We also cover nearby Chester-le-Street, Washington and Seaham.
Will shutters stop me escaping in a fire?
They must not. Shutters on bedroom or escape windows are fitted with a manual override or battery backup so they can be opened quickly, and we discuss escape routes at survey.
Can shutters be added to an existing window?
Yes. Most domestic shutters are retrofitted with a box on the face of the wall or in the reveal, so the window does not need to be replaced.
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.
What details help you quote quickly?
The postcode, the approximate width and height of the opening, whether you want manual or electric operation, and a photo of the frontage.
Will you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
