Door shutters for properties in Brighton
If you are building an extension in Brighton, tell us early: the shutter box is easiest to hide when it is planned before the lintel goes in.
Because a door shutter can cover an escape route, each one we fit in Brighton has an inside control that works without a key, plus a manual override or battery backup.
We survey and install across East Sussex, and Brighton is one of the cities covered. We also cover Hove, Portslade and Burgess Hill, so premises in more than one of these places can be quoted together.

Rules that apply in Brighton
In Brighton, as elsewhere in England, planning questions go to your local planning authority (the district, borough, city or unitary council).
- Planning: Front-door shutters change how the house looks from the street, so check with your council first, especially in a conservation area or on a listed building.
- Electrics: Wired to BS 7671. Notifiable work in homes in England and Wales, such as a new circuit, is self-certified by a competent person scheme electrician or notified to building control.
- Getting out safely: A shutter over an exit door must open from inside quickly and without a key. We set the switch inside the door and add a manual override.

Door roller shutters in Brighton: questions
Are door shutters secure?
They add a strong physical layer in front of the door, especially with anti-lift locking. If you need a tested security rating, ask for a shutter certified to LPS 1175 or STS 202; the rating belongs to that tested product. PAS 24 applies to the door or window behind the shutter, not to the shutter itself.
Will it fit round my door handle?
The shutter runs in front of the door frame, so handles, letterboxes and door canopies are measured at survey and the guides are set out to clear them.
Do you cover Brighton?
Yes. Book a survey for any address in Brighton in the usual way; it is covered as part of East Sussex.
How much do door roller shutters cost in Brighton?
We use the same UK guide prices in Brighton; after the survey you get a fixed written price for your opening.
