What to know about perforated & punched shutters in St Albans

Perforated shutters can be powder coated, though very dark colours make the display behind harder to see. Many council design guides prefer see-through shutters to solid ones because they avoid a blank frontage after hours.

Some councils still refuse perforated external shutters in sensitive areas, so planning is checked before ordering. Punched laths have larger slots, giving better visibility and more airflow, at the cost of a little privacy.

Options we can specify

  • Ventilation through the curtain
  • 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

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 St Albans

Do you cover St Albans?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in St Albans. We also cover nearby Harpenden, Hatfield and Hemel Hempstead.

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.

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.

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.

Do you work with landlords and managing agents?

Yes. We quote, fit and service shutters for landlords, managing agents and facilities teams, including multi-site planned maintenance.

Do you repair shutters fitted by other companies?

Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.
