How perforated & punched shutters work, and what to ask for
Many council design guides prefer see-through shutters to solid ones because they avoid a blank frontage after hours. Perforated shutters can be powder coated, though very dark colours make the display behind harder to see.
The perforated section can run the full height or start above a solid bottom section for extra kick protection. Perforations slightly reduce the weight of the curtain, which can help a motor or a push-up spring.
Features to choose from
- Electric or manual operation
- Perforated, punched or micro-perforated laths
- Powder coating to a RAL colour
- Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift blocks
- Box external, behind fascia or internal
- Window display visible after hours

Rules in Wales
Planning permission for shopfront shutters
In Wales an external shopfront shutter normally needs planning permission from your county or county borough council, or the national park authority, and a listed building also needs listed building consent. Welsh councils' design guidance often prefers internal or open-pattern grilles to solid shutters, particularly in conservation areas.

Questions about perforated & punched shutters in Newport
Do you cover Newport?
Yes. Newport (NP10) is within our Gwent coverage, along with nearby Risca, Cwmbran and Pontypool.
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.
Will you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
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.
