How perforated & punched shutters work, and what to ask for
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.
Some councils still refuse perforated external shutters in sensitive areas, so planning is checked before ordering. Window displays stay on view to passers-by, so a closed shop can still advertise what it sells.
What's included
- Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift blocks
- Perforated, punched or micro-perforated laths
- Optional solid bottom section for kick protection
- Window display visible after hours

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.

Your questions answered
Do you cover Cookstown?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Cookstown. We also cover nearby Dungannon, Portadown and Craigavon.
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.
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.
Will you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
What warranty do I get?
Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
