How perforated & punched shutters work, and what to ask for

Perforated shutters can be powder coated, though very dark colours make the display behind harder to see. Punched laths have larger slots, giving better visibility and more airflow, at the cost of a little privacy.

Many council design guides prefer see-through shutters to solid ones because they avoid a blank frontage after hours. Some councils still refuse perforated external shutters in sensitive areas, so planning is checked before ordering.

Specification options

  • Box external, behind fascia or internal
  • Window display visible after hours
  • Electric or manual operation
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Perforated, punched or micro-perforated laths
  • Ventilation through the curtain

Rules in England

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.

Before you book in Swadlincote

Do you cover Swadlincote?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Swadlincote. We also cover nearby Burton upon Trent, Coalville and Tamworth.

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.

Will you take away my old shutter?

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

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.
