Window shutters for properties in Willenhall
Willenhall is part of our West Midlands coverage, and addresses in the WV13 postcode district are covered in the same way as the rest of West Midlands. Wednesfield, Wolverhampton and Wednesbury are covered too, which helps when several properties need doing.
Willenhall sits some 10 miles to the north-west of Birmingham.
Each window in Willenhall is measured to the real opening, including the lintel, render beads and cill, which is why the survey comes before any price is fixed.
Window shutters are usually chosen for security when a house is empty, for blackout in bedrooms or for keeping summer heat off the glass, and the survey in Willenhall starts with which of those matters most to you.

What to check in Willenhall before ordering
Willenhall 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.
- 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.
