Perforated & punched shutters in Darwen: the essentials
Airflow through a perforated curtain helps ventilate a closed unit and reduces condensation behind the glass. The perforated section can run the full height or start above a solid bottom section for extra kick protection.
Perforations slightly reduce the weight of the curtain, which can help a motor or a push-up spring. Perforated laths let shop lighting show through at night, which keeps a high street looking open and lived-in.
What's included
- Optional solid bottom section for kick protection
- Box external, behind fascia or internal
- Perforated, punched or micro-perforated laths
- Ventilation through the curtain
- Powder coating to a RAL colour
- Window display visible after hours

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.

Your questions answered
Do you cover Darwen?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair perforated & punched shutters in Darwen and the BB3 district, as part of our coverage across Lancashire.
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.
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.
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.
Who carries out the work?
Work is carried out by experienced shutter engineers working for S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with.
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.
