How perforated & punched shutters work, and what to ask for
Airflow through a perforated curtain helps ventilate a closed unit and reduces condensation behind the glass. Perforations slightly reduce the weight of the curtain, which can help a motor or a push-up spring.
Many council design guides prefer see-through shutters to solid ones because they avoid a blank frontage after hours. The perforated section can run the full height or start above a solid bottom section for extra kick protection.
Features to choose from
- Perforated, punched or micro-perforated laths
- Window display visible after hours
- Optional solid bottom section for kick protection
- Ventilation through the curtain
- 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.

Questions about perforated & punched shutters in Newton-le-Willows
Do you cover Newton-le-Willows?
Yes. Newton-le-Willows (WA12) is within our Merseyside coverage, along with nearby Golborne, Ashton-in-Makerfield and Warrington.
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.
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.
Can you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
What warranty do I get?
Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
