Frequently asked questions
Can I see into the shop through a perforated shutter?
Yes, especially when the shop is lit. Punched vision laths give a clearer view.
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.
How much do perforated roller shutters cost in Loughborough?
We use the same UK guide prices in Loughborough; after the survey you get a fixed written price for your opening.
Do I need permission for perforated roller shutters in Loughborough?
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.
