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

Frequently asked questions
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 North Shields?
For new shutters, yes. Repair visits in North Shields are charged because they include diagnosis and work on the day.
Do I need permission for perforated roller shutters in North Shields?
New external shutters on shopfronts and street-facing elevations usually need planning permission. If you are unsure, ask your local council; we provide product details for any application.
