Choosing perforated & punched shutters for premises in Dronfield

Perforations slightly reduce the weight of the curtain, which can help a motor or a push-up spring. Punched laths have larger slots, giving better visibility and more airflow, at the cost of a little privacy.

Perforated laths let shop lighting show through at night, which keeps a high street looking open and lived-in. Many council design guides prefer see-through shutters to solid ones because they avoid a blank frontage after hours.

Options we can specify

  • Electric or manual operation
  • Perforated, punched or micro-perforated laths
  • Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift blocks
  • Optional solid bottom section for kick protection
  • Ventilation through the curtain
  • Box external, behind fascia or internal

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.

  4. We fit and commission

Perforated & punched shutters: common questions

Do you cover Dronfield?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Dronfield. We also cover nearby Chesterfield, Sheffield and Staveley.

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.

Do your guide prices include VAT?

Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.

Can you fit outside trading hours?

Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
