How perforated & punched shutters work, and what to ask for
Micro-perforated laths have holes so fine that the curtain reads as solid from a distance but glows when lit from inside. The perforated section can run the full height or start above a solid bottom section for extra kick protection.
Some councils still refuse perforated external shutters in sensitive areas, so planning is checked before ordering. Perforated shutters can be powder coated, though very dark colours make the display behind harder to see.
Features to choose from
- Optional solid bottom section for kick protection
- Powder coating to a RAL colour
- Perforated, punched or micro-perforated laths
- Ventilation through the curtain
- Window display visible after hours
- Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift blocks

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 Royton
Do you cover Royton?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Royton. We also cover nearby Chadderton, Oldham and Middleton.
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.
Are your prices fixed?
Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.
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.
