What to know about perforated & punched shutters in Edinburgh

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.

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

What's included

  • Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift blocks
  • Ventilation through the curtain
  • Perforated, punched or micro-perforated laths
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Box external, behind fascia or internal
  • Window display visible after hours

Your questions answered

Do you cover Edinburgh?

Yes. Edinburgh (EH1) is within our Edinburgh & the Lothians coverage, along with nearby Musselburgh, Kirkcaldy and Dunfermline.

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.

Is the survey free?

Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.

Can I get a quote from photos?

Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.
