Frequently asked questions
Can solar shutters be put on a timer?
Yes, with a compatible wireless timer or smart hub.
How long does the battery last?
Batteries are a replaceable part and typically last several years in normal use. Replacement does not mean replacing the shutter.
Do you cover Antrim?
Yes. Book a survey for any address in Antrim in the usual way; it is covered as part of County Antrim.
Do I need permission for solar roller shutters in Antrim?
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.
