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. The perforated section can run the full height or start above a solid bottom section for extra kick protection.
Many council design guides prefer see-through shutters to solid ones because they avoid a blank frontage after hours. Perforations slightly reduce the weight of the curtain, which can help a motor or a push-up spring.
Specification options
- Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift blocks
- Box external, behind fascia or internal
- Electric or manual operation
- Ventilation through the curtain
- Powder coating to a RAL colour
- Window display visible after hours

Questions about perforated & punched shutters in Clacton-on-Sea
Do you cover Clacton-on-Sea?
Yes. Clacton-on-Sea (CO15) is within our Essex coverage, along with nearby Harwich, Colchester and Felixstowe.
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.
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.
What warranty do I get?
Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
Are your prices fixed?
Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.
