What to know about perforated & punched shutters in Bournemouth
Many council design guides prefer see-through shutters to solid ones because they avoid a blank frontage after hours. Micro-perforated laths have holes so fine that the curtain reads as solid from a distance but glows when lit from inside.
Punched laths have larger slots, giving better visibility and more airflow, at the cost of a little privacy. Window displays stay on view to passers-by, so a closed shop can still advertise what it sells.
Options we can specify
- Optional solid bottom section for kick protection
- Window display visible after hours
- Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift blocks
- Ventilation through the curtain
- Electric or manual operation
- Perforated, punched or micro-perforated laths

Your questions answered
Do you cover Bournemouth?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Bournemouth. We also cover nearby Christchurch, Poole and New Milton.
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.
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.
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.
Do you repair shutters fitted by other companies?
Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.
