How perforated & punched shutters work, and what to ask for

Perforated shutters can be powder coated, though very dark colours make the display behind harder to see. Perforated laths let shop lighting show through at night, which keeps a high street looking open and lived-in.

Many council design guides prefer see-through shutters to solid ones because they avoid a blank frontage after hours. Window displays stay on view to passers-by, so a closed shop can still advertise what it sells.

What's included

  • Electric or manual operation
  • Ventilation through the curtain
  • Box external, behind fascia or internal
  • Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift blocks
  • Window display visible after hours
  • Optional solid bottom section for kick protection

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.

Before you book in Ashford (Kent)

Do you cover Ashford (Kent)?

Yes. Ashford (Kent) (TN24) is within our Kent coverage, along with nearby Faversham, Canterbury and Folkestone.

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.

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.

What details help you quote quickly?

The postcode, the approximate width and height of the opening, whether you want manual or electric operation, and a photo of the frontage.

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.
