What to know about perforated & punched shutters in Whitstable

Micro-perforated laths have holes so fine that the curtain reads as solid from a distance but glows when lit from inside. The perforated section can run the full height or start above a solid bottom section for extra kick protection.

Punched laths have larger slots, giving better visibility and more airflow, at the cost of a little privacy. Perforated laths let shop lighting show through at night, which keeps a high street looking open and lived-in.

Features to choose from

  • Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift blocks
  • Box external, behind fascia or internal
  • Window display visible after hours
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Perforated, punched or micro-perforated laths
  • Ventilation through the curtain

Where we work around Whitstable

Whitstable sits in Kent, roughly 23 miles from Maidstone. Whether the job is in the CT5 district or nearby Herne Bay, Canterbury and Faversham, the survey and quote work the same way.

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.

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.

Your questions answered

Do you cover Whitstable?

Yes. Whitstable (CT5) is within our Kent coverage, along with nearby Herne Bay, Canterbury and Faversham.

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.

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.

Can you fit outside trading hours?

Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.

Can I get a quote from photos?

Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.
