How perforated & punched shutters work, and what to ask for

Airflow through a perforated curtain helps ventilate a closed unit and reduces condensation behind the glass. Window displays stay on view to passers-by, so a closed shop can still advertise what it sells.

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.

What's included

  • Ventilation through the curtain
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift blocks
  • Box external, behind fascia or internal
  • Perforated, punched or micro-perforated laths
  • Optional solid bottom section for kick protection

Rules in England

Safety of powered shutters

Powered doors and shutters are treated as machinery. The installer commissions them with a risk assessment, safety devices where the risk calls for them and force checks to BS EN 12453, then hands over a declaration of conformity and maintenance instructions. In workplaces, the employer or whoever controls the premises must keep doors maintained and safe for staff and visitors.

Your questions answered

Do you cover Islington?

Yes. Islington (N1) is within our Greater London coverage, along with nearby Highbury, Holloway and Camden Town.

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.

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.

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.

Will you take away my old shutter?

Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.

What warranty do I get?

Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
