Our window roller shutters service in Kilburn
Kilburn sits some 4 miles to the north-west of central London.
Where a window in Kilburn has no power nearby, a solar shutter avoids running a cable; where there is a socket or spur, a wired motor is simpler.
If you let out a property in Kilburn, window roller shutters can protect it between tenancies or bookings, and solar or remote control avoids extra wiring.
If your address has an NW6 postcode, it falls within our Greater London coverage. Cricklewood, Chalk Farm and Camden Town are covered too, which helps when several properties need doing.

Planning and safety in Kilburn
As an English town, Kilburn follows the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 and the permitted development rules in England.
- Ventilation: A closed shutter reduces airflow round trickle vents, so on rooms with gas appliances or poor ventilation we specify slotted laths or a part-open setting.
- Electrics: Motors are wired to BS 7671. Some electrical work in homes, such as a new circuit, is notifiable under Part P in England and Wales (the lists of notifiable work differ slightly between the two). It is either self-certified by an electrician registered with a competent person scheme or notified to building control.
- Escape windows: If a shutter covers a window you would use to get out in a fire, it must open from inside without a key. We fit a manual override or battery backup on those openings.
- Planning: Whether external shutters on a house need permission depends on the property and the council. Listed buildings need consent for external alterations, and conservation areas often bring tighter rules, so check before ordering. We provide drawings and product details for an application.
