Questions about perforated roller shutters in Tiverton
Why do councils prefer perforated shutters?
They keep shopping streets looking lit and active after hours rather than lined with blank steel, which many shopfront design guides encourage.
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.
Is the survey free in Tiverton?
Yes, surveys for new installations in Tiverton are free. Repair and service visits are charged.
Do I need permission for perforated roller shutters in Tiverton?
It depends on the property. New external shutters on shopfronts and street-facing elevations usually need planning permission. Check with your local council before ordering; we can supply drawings.
