How perforated & punched shutters work, and what to ask for
Many council design guides prefer see-through shutters to solid ones because they avoid a blank frontage after hours. Micro-perforated laths have holes so fine that the curtain reads as solid from a distance but glows when lit from inside.
The perforated section can run the full height or start above a solid bottom section for extra kick protection. Airflow through a perforated curtain helps ventilate a closed unit and reduces condensation behind the glass.
Options we can specify
- Electric or manual operation
- Optional solid bottom section for kick protection
- Powder coating to a RAL colour
- Perforated, punched or micro-perforated laths
- Box external, behind fascia or internal
- Ventilation through the curtain

Rules in England
Safety of powered shutters
Powered doors and shutters are treated as machinery. The installer commissions them with a risk assessment, safety devices where the risk calls for them and force checks to BS EN 12453, then hands over a declaration of conformity and maintenance instructions. In workplaces, the employer or whoever controls the premises must keep doors maintained and safe for staff and visitors.

Perforated & punched shutters: common questions
Do you cover Trowbridge?
Yes. Trowbridge (BA14) is within our Wiltshire coverage, along with nearby Bath, Frome and Chippenham.
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.
Is the survey free?
Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.
Can you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
