Frequently asked questions
Do solar shutters work in winter?
Yes. The panel charges in daylight, not just sunshine, and a full battery runs the shutter for many cycles. Very shaded spots are assessed at survey.
Are solar shutters more expensive?
The shutter costs more than a mains version, but you save on electrical work, which often makes the total similar.
How much do solar roller shutters cost in Workington?
We use the same UK guide prices in Workington; after the survey you get a fixed written price for your opening.
Do I need permission for solar roller shutters in Workington?
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.
