How perforated & punched shutters work, and what to ask for
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.
Airflow through a perforated curtain helps ventilate a closed unit and reduces condensation behind the glass. Punched laths have larger slots, giving better visibility and more airflow, at the cost of a little privacy.
Options we can specify
- Ventilation through the curtain
- Electric or manual operation
- Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift blocks
- Optional solid bottom section for kick protection
- Perforated, punched or micro-perforated laths
- Window display visible after hours

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.

Before you book in Tynemouth
Do you cover Tynemouth?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Tynemouth. We also cover nearby North Shields, South Shields and Whitley Bay.
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.
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.
How long does it take from order to fitting?
Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it 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.
