Solar shutters for properties in Christchurch

Christchurch is roughly 4 miles east of Bournemouth.
Where a window in Christchurch has no power nearby, a solar shutter avoids running a cable; where there is a socket or spur, a wired motor is simpler.
On houses in Christchurch, the practical questions are where the box can sit, how the shutter will be powered and whether the window is an escape route; the survey answers all three.

Planning and safety in Christchurch
Christchurch is in England, so planning decisions sit with your local planning authority (the district, borough, city or unitary council).
- Orientation: We check daylight on the panel at survey; heavily shaded openings may need a remote panel or mains power.
- Planning: Solar shutters look much the same as mains shutters from outside, so the same planning advice applies.

Questions about solar roller shutters in Christchurch
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 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.
Do you cover Christchurch?
Yes. Christchurch and the BH23 postcode district are part of our coverage across Dorset.
