How perforated & punched shutters work, and what to ask for
Perforations slightly reduce the weight of the curtain, which can help a motor or a push-up spring. Perforated shutters can be powder coated, though very dark colours make the display behind harder to see.
Micro-perforated laths have holes so fine that the curtain reads as solid from a distance but glows when lit from inside. Many council design guides prefer see-through shutters to solid ones because they avoid a blank frontage after hours.
Specification options
- Window display visible after hours
- Perforated, punched or micro-perforated laths
- Electric or manual operation
- Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift blocks
- Ventilation through the curtain
- Box external, behind fascia or internal

Before you book in Bearsden
Do you cover Bearsden?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Bearsden. We also cover nearby Clydebank, Renfrew and Bishopbriggs.
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 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.
Can you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
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.
