- Planning: A perforated shutter is often the type councils will accept on a shopfront, but an application is usually still needed.

Questions about perforated roller shutters in Kendal
Are perforated shutters less secure?
They are slightly lighter than solid shutters of the same gauge, but still form a strong physical barrier. Solid bottom laths add kick resistance.
Can I see into the shop through a perforated shutter?
Yes, especially when the shop is lit. Punched vision laths give a clearer view.
Is the survey free in Kendal?
Yes, surveys for new installations in Kendal are free. Repair and service visits are charged.
Do I need permission for perforated roller shutters in Kendal?
Possibly. New external shutters on shopfronts and street-facing elevations usually need planning permission. We recommend checking with your local council first.
