Perforated & punched shutters in Aberdare: the essentials

The perforated section can run the full height or start above a solid bottom section for extra kick protection. Window displays stay on view to passers-by, so a closed shop can still advertise what it sells.

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.

Features to choose from

  • Optional solid bottom section for kick protection
  • Perforated, punched or micro-perforated laths
  • Ventilation through the curtain
  • Electric or manual operation
  • Box external, behind fascia or internal
  • Window display visible after hours

Rules in Wales

Planning permission for shopfront shutters

In Wales an external shopfront shutter normally needs planning permission from your county or county borough council, or the national park authority, and a listed building also needs listed building consent. Welsh councils' design guidance often prefers internal or open-pattern grilles to solid shutters, particularly in conservation areas.

Before you book in Aberdare

Do you cover Aberdare?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair perforated & punched shutters in Aberdare and the CF44 district, as part of our coverage across Mid Glamorgan.

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.

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 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.

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.
