- Orientation: We check daylight on the panel at survey; heavily shaded openings may need a remote panel or mains power.

Solar roller shutters in Shirley: 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.
Is the survey free in Shirley?
Yes, surveys for new installations in Shirley are free. Repair and service visits are charged.
How much do solar roller shutters cost in Shirley?
We use the same UK guide prices in Shirley; after the survey you get a fixed written price for your opening.
