Stoneville burglary figures are small

WA Police recorded 6 burglaries in Stoneville in 2025. Against the 2,489 residents counted in 2021, that is a rate of 2.4 per 1,000, under the metropolitan figure of 4.0. The count covers homes and businesses together.

Counts this size are too small to read a trend. The yearly average from 2021 to 2025 was 4.2, and none were recorded in the first six months of 2026.

With numbers this low, the stronger reasons to fit shutters in Stoneville are usually time away and bushfire. Even so, a shutter is a physical barrier on windows and doors, and it makes forced entry slower and noisier.

10.3% of employed Stoneville residents worked in mining at the 2021 Census, against 6.6% for Greater Perth. The census does not record fly-in fly-out work, so read the mining share as a rough proxy only. Home ownership is 91.5%, far above the Greater Perth figure of 70.4%, and 39.7% of homes are owned outright. Residents aged 65 and over make up 19.1%, above the Greater Perth share of 15.8%, and the median age is 44.

Remote and WiFi control let you lower every shutter before you drive off and open or close them from your phone while you are gone. On hardwired shutters, a timer can raise and lower them on a schedule, which matches WA Police advice to set timers for lights and electronics before a trip.

Power supply is worth a thought too. Ozroll's E-Series battery drive is not reliant upon mains power and can still operate the shutters in a power failure, although its portable E-Port controller does not lend itself to timer automation. Hardwired Somfy CSI motors take a different approach, with a manual override that works even if power is not present.

Stoneville houses and the right shutter

Stoneville is almost all detached homes. Of its 872 occupied dwellings at the 2021 Census, 99.8% were separate houses, and no townhouses or flats were recorded, so strata rules seldom come into it.

Residential roller shutters suit these houses. Each one is measured on site, then made in Wangara from Ozroll aluminium slats, with the pelmet, guides and motor built and tested in the factory before the install. In summer, lowered shutters keep the afternoon sun off the glass.

For a deck or verandah, Ziptrak or Slidetrack outdoor blinds close in the sides against wind and sun, in manual or motorised versions.

Bushfire prone land across nearly all of Stoneville

On the state map in effect from 13 December 2025, 97.0% of Stoneville's land is designated bushfire prone.

Building and Energy's advice for retrofitting existing homes, for sites up to BAL-29, is that windows should be protected with metal screens or bushfire shutters. It also notes that bushfire construction requirements are generally not retrospective. Ozroll states that its roller shutters have been tested by the CSIRO against BAL-29 and BAL-40 standards, and adds that the specific details of each application should be considered for compliance.

If you have a bushfire attack level assessment for your block, bring it to the measure. A rating of BAL-40 or BAL-FZ also matters for planning, as the next section explains.

Stoneville homes and the Shire of Mundaring heritage list

Stoneville is in the Shire of Mundaring. Under the state planning rules, a single house can be altered without development approval if the R-Codes apply, the works meet their deemed-to-comply provisions and the place is not heritage protected. On bushfire prone land assessed at BAL-40 or BAL-FZ, approval can be required despite those exemptions.

The Shire's 2016 Heritage List includes places in Stoneville. If your home is on it, the Shire says modification or additions will usually require development approval and may need referral to the Heritage Council of Western Australia. Its exemptions policy, adopted in June 2026, applies only to places not on the list, and its heritage policy keeps the exemptions for listed places narrow.

With 19.1% of residents aged 65 and over, the WA Seniors Card Safety and Security Rebate is worth checking. It lists security window screens or window shutters as an eligible item, up to $400 per household on a minimum purchase of $100, and it can be claimed once during the life of the scheme.
