Our window roller shutters service in Redcar
Redcar sits some 46 miles to the north of York.
Where a window in Redcar has no power nearby, a solar shutter avoids running a cable; where there is a socket or spur, a wired motor is simpler.
You do not have to do every window at once: in Redcar we can fit the ground-floor windows first and match the colour and box on others later.
We survey and install across North Yorkshire, and Redcar is one of the towns covered. Other towns nearby that we cover include Middlesbrough, Hartlepool and Billingham.

What to check in Redcar before ordering
Redcar is in England, so planning decisions sit with your local planning authority (the district, borough, city or unitary council).
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.

Frequently asked questions
What happens in a power cut?
Mains motors stop where they are until power returns. If a window is needed for escape we fit a manual override or a battery-backed motor so it can still be opened.
Will a shutter stop me opening my window?
No. The shutter runs outside the window, so you can still open casements when it is raised. Inward-opening tilt-and-turn windows can also be opened with the shutter down.
