Frequently asked questions
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.

Batteries are a replaceable part and typically last several years in normal use. Replacement does not mean replacing the shutter.
Do I need permission for solar roller shutters in Nelson?
External shutters on listed buildings need listed building consent, and conservation areas often have tighter rules. If you are unsure, ask your local council; we provide product details for any application.
Is the survey free in Nelson?
Yes, for new installations. We tell you the cost of any repair or service visit before booking.
