Perforated & punched shutters in Market Harborough: the essentials
The perforated section can run the full height or start above a solid bottom section for extra kick protection. Micro-perforated laths have holes so fine that the curtain reads as solid from a distance but glows when lit from inside.
Window displays stay on view to passers-by, so a closed shop can still advertise what it sells. Airflow through a perforated curtain helps ventilate a closed unit and reduces condensation behind the glass.
What's included
- Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift blocks
- Ventilation through the curtain
- Optional solid bottom section for kick protection
- Perforated, punched or micro-perforated laths
- Box external, behind fascia or internal
- Powder coating to a RAL colour

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.

Before you book in Market Harborough
Do you cover Market Harborough?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Market Harborough. We also cover nearby Corby, Kettering and Wigston.
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.
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.
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.
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.
