Frequently asked questions
Do insulated shutters reduce noise?
Yes, a closed foam-filled shutter noticeably softens traffic and street noise, especially on single-glazed or older windows.
Do roller shutters really insulate?
Insulated shutters reduce heat loss when they are closed, mainly at night, and stop solar heat in summer. They complement good windows rather than replace them.
Do I need permission for insulated roller shutters & doors in Dalkeith?
External shutters on listed buildings need listed building consent, and conservation areas often have tighter rules. If you are unsure, ask your council; we provide product details for any application.
