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. Window displays stay on view to passers-by, so a closed shop can still advertise what it sells.

Perforated laths let shop lighting show through at night, which keeps a high street looking open and lived-in. Airflow through a perforated curtain helps ventilate a closed unit and reduces condensation behind the glass.

Features to choose from

  • Perforated, punched or micro-perforated laths
  • Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift blocks
  • Ventilation through the curtain
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Window display visible after hours
  • Electric or manual operation

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.

How it works

  1. Tell us about the opening

    Send the postcode, a rough size and a photo if you have one, using the form or a call.

  2. Free survey

    We measure, check the structure, power supply and planning position, and talk through options.

  3. Written fixed price

    You get a written quote with the product, finish, controls and price before anything is ordered.

  4. Made, fitted and handed over

    The shutter is made to measure, fitted, commissioned and handed over with its documents.

Your questions answered

Do you cover Northampton?

Yes. Northampton (NN1) is within our Northamptonshire coverage, along with nearby Wellingborough, Daventry and Rushden.

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.

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.

What warranty do I get?

Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.

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.
