Common Questions
Frequently asked
Will the trickle vents still work?
Yes — the frame is set below the trickle vent line and louvres open to allow airflow. We specify a lower frame head where necessary so ventilation is unaffected. We've fitted this exact spec on new-build homes across Hale (WA15).
Can you shutter my bi-fold doors?
Yes — tracked panels run on a top and bottom rail and stack to one side when the doors open. Panel count matches the door leaf count so nothing catches. We've fitted this exact spec on new-build homes across Hale (WA15).
Is hardwood overkill in a new build?
Often yes — MDF or engineered hardwood is more dimensionally stable in dry, well-heated new-build interiors and costs less. We recommend it on any new-build package unless a bathroom is included. We've fitted this exact spec on new-build homes across Hale (WA15).
What's the ballpark cost for shutters on a Hale new-build home?
£1,800–£3,200 for a whole-ground-floor package for the elements described above. Whole-house new-build home projects sit within the £3,500 – £12,000 band.
