What to know about perforated & punched shutters in Kilmarnock

Many council design guides prefer see-through shutters to solid ones because they avoid a blank frontage after hours. Perforated laths let shop lighting show through at night, which keeps a high street looking open and lived-in.

Perforations slightly reduce the weight of the curtain, which can help a motor or a push-up spring. The perforated section can run the full height or start above a solid bottom section for extra kick protection.

Options we can specify

  • Ventilation through the curtain
  • Box external, behind fascia or internal
  • Perforated, punched or micro-perforated laths
  • Window display visible after hours
  • Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift blocks
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour

Rules in Scotland

Planning permission for shopfront shutters

In Scotland fitting an external security shutter to a shopfront normally needs planning permission from the council, and listed building consent if the building is listed. Councils often ask for the box to be concealed and for open or perforated designs rather than solid shutters in conservation areas.

How it works

  1. Send the details

    Give us the postcode, approximate width and height, and what the shutter is protecting.

  2. We survey the opening

    An engineer measures and checks the fixings, power and any planning constraints.

  3. You approve a fixed price

    The quote lists the specification and price in writing, so there are no surprises.

  4. We fit and commission

    Your shutter is installed, tested and handed over with instructions and paperwork.

Perforated & punched shutters: common questions

Do you cover Kilmarnock?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Kilmarnock. We also cover nearby Irvine, Ayr and Newton Mearns.

Are perforated shutters easier to get planning for?

Often, because they avoid a blank frontage at night, but each council decides case by case and some refuse any external shutter in conservation areas.

Can people see into the shop?

With punched laths, yes, fairly clearly. Micro-perforated laths give a softer view that mainly shows light and shapes. We can show samples at survey.

Is a perforated shutter less secure than a solid one?

The holes are small and the laths are the same gauge, so a perforated shutter still resists forced entry. For the highest-risk premises, a rated product or solid steel may still be recommended.

Can you fit outside trading hours?

Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.

Is the survey free?

Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.
