What to know about perforated & punched shutters in Melton Mowbray

Some councils still refuse perforated external shutters in sensitive areas, so planning is checked before ordering. Many council design guides prefer see-through shutters to solid ones because they avoid a blank frontage after hours.

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

Features to choose from

  • Perforated, punched or micro-perforated laths
  • Ventilation through the curtain
  • Box external, behind fascia or internal
  • Window display visible after hours
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Optional solid bottom section for kick protection

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.

Before you book in Melton Mowbray

Do you cover Melton Mowbray?

Yes. Melton Mowbray (LE13) is within our Leicestershire coverage, along with nearby Oakham, Loughborough and Oadby.

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.

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.

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.

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.
