How home security shutters work, and what to ask for

Fire escape routes matter: shutters on escape windows need an easy manual override or battery backup so they can be opened quickly. Electric operation with a wall switch, remote or timer makes it easy to close every shutter in the house at once.

Whether planning permission is needed depends on the property, the council and any listing or conservation area. Closed shutters add a layer of insulation and can block nearly all daylight, which helps bedrooms and media rooms.

Features to choose from

  • Patio and bi-fold door shutters
  • Face-fixed, reveal-fixed or built-in boxes
  • Blackout and added insulation when closed
  • Manual override or battery backup on escape windows
  • Colours matched to window frames
  • Quiet operation suited to bedrooms

Rules in England

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.

Before you book in North Shields

Do you cover North Shields?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in North Shields. We also cover nearby Tynemouth, South Shields and Whitley Bay.

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.

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.

Do your guide prices include VAT?

Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.

What warranty do I get?

Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
