Frequently asked questions
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.

Yes. Sutton-in-Ashfield and the NG17 postcode district are part of our coverage across Nottinghamshire.
Do I need permission for solar roller shutters in Sutton-in-Ashfield?
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.
