How perforated & punched shutters work, and what to ask for
Punched laths have larger slots, giving better visibility and more airflow, at the cost of a little privacy. 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. Some councils still refuse perforated external shutters in sensitive areas, so planning is checked before ordering.
Options we can specify
- Ventilation through the curtain
- Optional solid bottom section for kick protection
- Electric or manual operation
- Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift blocks
- Window display visible after hours
- Box external, behind fascia or internal

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.

Perforated & punched shutters: common questions
Do you cover Redcar?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair perforated & punched shutters in Redcar and the TS10 district, as part of our coverage across North Yorkshire.
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.
Will you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
Are your prices fixed?
Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.
