Choosing perforated & punched shutters for premises in Watford
Micro-perforated laths have holes so fine that the curtain reads as solid from a distance but glows when lit from inside. Perforated laths let shop lighting show through at night, which keeps a high street looking open and lived-in.
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.
Features to choose from
- Perforated, punched or micro-perforated laths
- Box external, behind fascia or internal
- Optional solid bottom section for kick protection
- Electric or manual operation
- Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift blocks
- Window display visible after hours

Rules in England
Electrical work
Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations. In homes in England, new circuits are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations, so the work is done by a registered electrician who can self-certify it, or notified to building control.

Your questions answered
Do you cover Watford?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Watford. We also cover nearby Bushey, Rickmansworth and Borehamwood.
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 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.
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.
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.
