What to know about perforated & punched shutters in Barking
Micro-perforated laths have holes so fine that the curtain reads as solid from a distance but glows when lit from inside. Airflow through a perforated curtain helps ventilate a closed unit and reduces condensation behind the glass.
Perforations slightly reduce the weight of the curtain, which can help a motor or a push-up spring. Perforated laths let shop lighting show through at night, which keeps a high street looking open and lived-in.
Options we can specify
- Ventilation through the curtain
- Window display visible after hours
- Powder coating to a RAL colour
- Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift blocks
- Perforated, punched or micro-perforated laths
- Box external, behind fascia or internal

Questions about perforated & punched shutters in Barking
Do you cover Barking?
Yes. Barking (IG11) is within our Greater London coverage, along with nearby Ilford, Becontree and Thamesmead.
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.
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.
What warranty do I get?
Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
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.
