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.
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.
Is the survey free in Aldridge?
For new shutters, yes. Repair visits in Aldridge are charged because they include diagnosis and work on the day.
