Planning and safety in Rhondda
As a Welsh town, Rhondda follows the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 and the Welsh permitted development rules.
- Planning: A perforated shutter is often the type councils will accept on a shopfront, but an application is usually still needed.
- Weather: Perforations let some wind and rain through, so think about the glazing behind and draughts in exposed spots.

Frequently asked questions
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.
Can I see into the shop through a perforated shutter?
Yes, especially when the shop is lit. Punched vision laths give a clearer view.
How much do perforated roller shutters cost in Rhondda?
Typical prices are shown above. A survey at your property in Rhondda confirms the specification and fixes the price.
Do I need permission for perforated roller shutters in Rhondda?
Possibly. New external shutters on shopfronts and street-facing elevations usually need planning permission. We recommend checking with your local council first.
