How perforated & punched shutters work, and what to ask for
Punched laths have larger slots, giving better visibility and more airflow, at the cost of a little privacy. 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.
Features to choose from
- Electric or manual operation
- Perforated, punched or micro-perforated laths
- Ventilation through the curtain
- Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift blocks
- Box external, behind fascia or internal
- Window display visible after hours

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.

Perforated & punched shutters: common questions
Do you cover Cheadle Hulme?
Yes. Cheadle Hulme (SK8) is within our Greater Manchester coverage, along with nearby Stockport, Hazel Grove and Wilmslow.
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.
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.
