Perforated & punched shutters in County Armagh: the essentials

Perforated shutters can be powder coated, though very dark colours make the display behind harder to see. Window displays stay on view to passers-by, so a closed shop can still advertise what it sells. Some councils still refuse perforated external shutters in sensitive areas, so planning is checked before ordering.

Many council design guides prefer see-through shutters to solid ones because they avoid a blank frontage after hours. Perforations slightly reduce the weight of the curtain, which can help a motor or a push-up spring.

Features to choose from

  • Optional solid bottom section for kick protection
  • Perforated, punched or micro-perforated laths
  • Box external, behind fascia or internal
  • Electric or manual operation
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Ventilation through the curtain

Covering County Armagh

We cover County Armagh from Craigavon to Portadown, Lurgan and Armagh, with 4 towns listed below. Planning decisions for external shutters sit with your local council in Northern Ireland, and we check the position at survey.

Rules in Northern Ireland

Planning permission for shopfront shutters

In Northern Ireland planning permission for an external shopfront shutter is decided by your local council, which took over most planning decisions in 2015, and a listed building also needs listed building consent. Design guidance generally favours shutters that keep the frontage visible.

Safety of powered shutters

Powered doors and shutters are treated as machinery. The installer commissions them with a risk assessment, safety devices where the risk calls for them and force checks to BS EN 12453, then hands over a declaration of conformity and maintenance instructions. In workplaces, the employer or whoever controls the premises must keep doors maintained and safe for staff and visitors.

Electrical work

Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations, by a qualified electrician. Northern Ireland has its own building regulations, and any building control requirement for the work is confirmed with your council.

Perforated & punched shutters: common questions

Do perforated shutters let rain in?

A little water can pass through the perforations in driving rain, which is why they are normally fitted in front of glazing rather than as the only weather barrier.

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.

What details help you quote quickly?

The postcode, the approximate width and height of the opening, whether you want manual or electric operation, and a photo of the frontage.

Will you take away my old shutter?

Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
