Solar shutters for properties in Crawley
Surveys in Crawley and the surrounding area are arranged directly with you, as part of our coverage across West Sussex. Horley, Horsham and East Grinstead are covered too, which helps when several properties need doing.
On houses in Crawley, 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.
Where a window in Crawley has no power nearby, a solar shutter avoids running a cable; where there is a socket or spur, a wired motor is simpler.

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

Questions about solar roller shutters in Crawley
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.
Can solar shutters be put on a timer?
Yes, with a compatible wireless timer or smart hub.
Do I need permission for solar roller shutters in Crawley?
It depends on the property. External shutters on listed buildings need listed building consent, and conservation areas often have tighter rules. Check with your local council before ordering; we can supply drawings.
