Our patio & bifold door roller shutters service in Hastings
Hastings is roughly 31 miles east of Brighton.
For back doors, French doors and bifolds in Hastings, 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 Hastings has an inside control that works without a key, plus a manual override or battery backup.

- Planning: Rear shutters are less visible, but listed buildings and conservation areas can still need consent.
- Escape route: If the patio doors are a way out of the house, the shutter needs an inside control and a manual override.

Frequently asked questions
Will a shutter keep my extension cooler?
Yes, an external shutter stops sun reaching the glass, which is far more effective at reducing heat than an internal blind.
How much do patio door shutters cost?
Most patio and French doors are £1,195–£1,895 including VAT, electric, supplied and fitted. Wide bifolds cost more; you get a fixed price after survey.
Do I need permission for patio & bifold door roller shutters in Hastings?
Possibly. External shutters on listed buildings need listed building consent, and conservation areas often have tighter rules. We recommend checking with your local council first.
Is the survey free in Hastings?
Yes, for new installations. We tell you the cost of any repair or service visit before booking.
