Perforated & punched shutters in Barnstaple: the essentials
Perforated shutters can be powder coated, though very dark colours make the display behind harder to see. Many council design guides prefer see-through shutters to solid ones because they avoid a blank frontage after hours.
Airflow through a perforated curtain helps ventilate a closed unit and reduces condensation behind the glass. Micro-perforated laths have holes so fine that the curtain reads as solid from a distance but glows when lit from inside.
Specification options
- Window display visible after hours
- Perforated, punched or micro-perforated laths
- Optional solid bottom section for kick protection
- Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift blocks
- Powder coating to a RAL colour
- Electric or manual operation

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.

Questions about perforated & punched shutters in Barnstaple
Do you cover Barnstaple?
Yes. Barnstaple (EX31) is within our Devon coverage, along with nearby Bideford.
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.
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.
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.
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.
