What to know about perforated & punched shutters in Falmouth

Many council design guides prefer see-through shutters to solid ones because they avoid a blank frontage after hours. 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. Micro-perforated laths have holes so fine that the curtain reads as solid from a distance but glows when lit from inside.

Features to choose from

  • Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift blocks
  • Perforated, punched or micro-perforated laths
  • Electric or manual operation
  • Optional solid bottom section for kick protection
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Ventilation through the curtain

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.

  3. You approve a fixed price

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

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

Questions about perforated & punched shutters in Falmouth

Do you cover Falmouth?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair perforated & punched shutters in Falmouth and the TR11 district, as part of our coverage across Cornwall.

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 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.

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.

What warranty do I get?

Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.

How long does it take from order to fitting?

Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.
