How home security shutters work, and what to ask for
Whether planning permission is needed depends on the property, the council and any listing or conservation area. Patio and bi-fold doors can be covered by a single wide shutter, protecting the largest area of glass.
Closed shutters add a layer of insulation and can block nearly all daylight, which helps bedrooms and media rooms. Shutters protect glazing from storm debris and reduce noise from busy roads.
What's included
- Manual override or battery backup on escape windows
- Face-fixed, reveal-fixed or built-in boxes
- Blackout and added insulation when closed
- Colours matched to window frames

Rules in England
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 Washington
Do you cover Washington?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Washington. We also cover nearby Chester-le-Street, Houghton-le-Spring and Hebburn.
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 I get a quote from photos?
Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.
Who carries out the work?
Work is carried out by experienced shutter engineers working for S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with.
