Across South Glamorgan, planning follows the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 and the Welsh permitted development rules.

Perforated roller shutters in South Glamorgan: 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.
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.
Do I need permission for perforated roller shutters in South Glamorgan?
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.
