Perforated & punched shutters in Accrington: the essentials

Perforated laths let shop lighting show through at night, which keeps a high street looking open and lived-in. Airflow through a perforated curtain helps ventilate a closed unit and reduces condensation behind the glass.

Micro-perforated laths have holes so fine that the curtain reads as solid from a distance but glows when lit from inside. Perforations slightly reduce the weight of the curtain, which can help a motor or a push-up spring.

Specification options

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

Rules in England

Planning permission for shopfront shutters

In England an external shutter on a shopfront is usually treated as development that needs planning permission from the local planning authority, and a listed building also needs listed building consent. Many councils' shopfront design guides favour internal shutters, perforated or open-grille designs and boxes hidden behind the fascia, and some refuse solid external shutters in conservation areas and on main shopping streets.

Your questions answered

Do you cover Accrington?

Yes. Accrington (BB5) is within our Lancashire coverage, along with nearby Rawtenstall, Blackburn and Darwen.

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.

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.

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.

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.
