What to know about perforated & punched shutters in Thamesmead
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.
Window displays stay on view to passers-by, so a closed shop can still advertise what it sells. Some councils still refuse perforated external shutters in sensitive areas, so planning is checked before ordering.
Options we can specify
- Ventilation through the curtain
- Powder coating to a RAL colour
- Perforated, punched or micro-perforated laths
- Electric or manual operation
- Window display visible after hours
- Box external, behind fascia or internal

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.

Before you book in Thamesmead
Do you cover Thamesmead?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair perforated & punched shutters in Thamesmead and the SE28 district, as part of our coverage across Greater London.
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.
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.
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 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.
How long does it take from order to fitting?
Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.
