How perforated & punched shutters work, and what to ask for
Airflow through a perforated curtain helps ventilate a closed unit and reduces condensation behind the glass. Some councils still refuse perforated external shutters in sensitive areas, so planning is checked before ordering.
Punched laths have larger slots, giving better visibility and more airflow, at the cost of a little privacy. Perforated shutters can be powder coated, though very dark colours make the display behind harder to see.
Specification options
- Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift blocks

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.

Questions about perforated & punched shutters in Horsham
Do you cover Horsham?
Yes. Horsham (RH12) is within our West Sussex coverage, along with nearby Horley, Haywards Heath and Burgess Hill.
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.
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.
Who carries out the work?
Work is carried out by experienced shutter engineers working for S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with.
