Perforated & punched shutters in Altrincham: the essentials

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.

Some councils still refuse perforated external shutters in sensitive areas, so planning is checked before ordering. Many council design guides prefer see-through shutters to solid ones because they avoid a blank frontage after hours.

Features to choose from

  • Optional solid bottom section for kick protection
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Electric or manual operation
  • Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift blocks
  • Box external, behind fascia or internal
  • Window display visible after hours

Rules in England

Planning permission for shopfront shutters

In England an external shutter on a shopfront is usually treated as development that needs planning permission from the local planning authority, and a listed building also needs listed building consent. Many councils' shopfront design guides favour internal shutters, perforated or open-grille designs and boxes hidden behind the fascia, and some refuse solid external shutters in conservation areas and on main shopping streets.

Questions about perforated & punched shutters in Altrincham

Do you cover Altrincham?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair perforated & punched shutters in Altrincham and the WA14 district, as part of our coverage across Greater Manchester.

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.

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.

Can you fit outside trading hours?

Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.

What warranty do I get?

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