Choosing perforated & punched shutters for premises in Stanley

Airflow through a perforated curtain helps ventilate a closed unit and reduces condensation behind the glass. Window displays stay on view to passers-by, so a closed shop can still advertise what it sells.

Perforations slightly reduce the weight of the curtain, which can help a motor or a push-up spring. Perforated laths let shop lighting show through at night, which keeps a high street looking open and lived-in.

Features to choose from

  • Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift blocks
  • Electric or manual operation
  • Optional solid bottom section for kick protection
  • Perforated, punched or micro-perforated laths
  • Window display visible after hours
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour

Where we work around Stanley

Jobs in Stanley are planned as part of our County Durham coverage, and visits can be combined with jobs in nearby Chester-le-Street, Consett and Gateshead. Planning rules are those of your local council in England.

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.

How it works

  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.

Your questions answered

Do you cover Stanley?

Yes. Stanley (DH9) is within our County Durham coverage, along with nearby Chester-le-Street, Consett and Gateshead.

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.

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.

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.

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.
