How perforated & punched shutters work, and what to ask for
Window displays stay on view to passers-by, so a closed shop can still advertise what it sells. Perforated laths let shop lighting show through at night, which keeps a high street looking open and lived-in.
Airflow through a perforated curtain helps ventilate a closed unit and reduces condensation behind the glass. Punched laths have larger slots, giving better visibility and more airflow, at the cost of a little privacy.
Options we can specify
- Box external, behind fascia or internal
- Powder coating to a RAL colour
- Perforated, punched or micro-perforated laths
- Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift blocks
- Electric or manual operation
- Optional solid bottom section for kick protection

Rules in England
Planning permission for shopfront shutters
In England an external shutter on a shopfront is usually treated as development that needs planning permission from the local planning authority, and a listed building also needs listed building consent. Many councils' shopfront design guides favour internal shutters, perforated or open-grille designs and boxes hidden behind the fascia, and some refuse solid external shutters in conservation areas and on main shopping streets.

Your questions answered
Do you cover Runcorn?
Yes. Runcorn (WA7) is within our Cheshire coverage, along with nearby Widnes, Halewood and Huyton.
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.
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.
Who carries out the work?
Work is carried out by experienced shutter engineers working for S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with.
Are your prices fixed?
Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.
