What to know about perforated & punched shutters in Houghton-le-Spring

Perforated laths let shop lighting show through at night, which keeps a high street looking open and lived-in. Window displays stay on view to passers-by, so a closed shop can still advertise what it sells.

Micro-perforated laths have holes so fine that the curtain reads as solid from a distance but glows when lit from inside. Airflow through a perforated curtain helps ventilate a closed unit and reduces condensation behind the glass.

Features to choose from

  • Optional solid bottom section for kick protection
  • Perforated, punched or micro-perforated laths
  • Box external, behind fascia or internal
  • Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift blocks
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Electric or manual operation

Rules in England

Electrical work

Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations. In homes in England, new circuits are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations, so the work is done by a registered electrician who can self-certify it, or notified to building control.

Before you book in Houghton-le-Spring

Do you cover Houghton-le-Spring?

Yes. Houghton-le-Spring (DH4) is within our Tyne and Wear coverage, along with nearby Chester-le-Street, Washington and Seaham.

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.

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.

What warranty do I get?

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

Will you take away my old shutter?

Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
