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. 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. Window displays stay on view to passers-by, so a closed shop can still advertise what it sells.

Options we can specify

  • Ventilation through the curtain
  • Optional solid bottom section for kick protection
  • Perforated, punched or micro-perforated laths
  • Electric or manual operation
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • 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.

How it works

  1. Send the details

    Give us the postcode, approximate width and height, and what the shutter is protecting.

  2. We survey the opening

    An engineer measures and checks the fixings, power and any planning constraints.

  3. You approve a fixed price

    The quote lists the specification and price in writing, so there are no surprises.

  4. We fit and commission

    Your shutter is installed, tested and handed over with instructions and paperwork.

Perforated & punched shutters: common questions

Do you cover Chatham?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair perforated & punched shutters in Chatham and the ME4 district, as part of our coverage across Kent.

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 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.

What warranty do I get?

Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.

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.
