Door shutters for properties in Newtown
Surveys in Newtown and the surrounding area are arranged directly with you, as part of our coverage across Powys. We also cover Welshpool, Llandrindod Wells and Aberystwyth, so premises in more than one of these places can be quoted together.
For back doors, French doors and bifolds in Newtown, the shutter is sized to the full frame so the curtain closes onto a level threshold or a bottom rail.
Because a door shutter can cover an escape route, each one we fit in Newtown has an inside control that works without a key, plus a manual override or battery backup.

Planning and safety in Newtown
Newtown is in Wales, so planning decisions sit with your local planning authority (the county or county borough council, or a national park authority).
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.

Frequently asked questions
Can it be opened from outside?
With a key switch, keypad or remote, yes. Without one, it can only be opened from inside, which suits back doors.
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.
Is the survey free in Newtown?
Yes, for new installations. We tell you the cost of any repair or service visit before booking.
Do I need permission for door roller shutters in Newtown?
It depends on the property. External shutters on listed buildings need listed building consent, and conservation areas often have tighter rules. Check with your local council before ordering; we can supply drawings.
