- Punched galvanised slat, mixed options
- Openings to 6 000mm wide
A perforated roller shutter door closes an opening while still letting light and sight through it. In Benoni that makes it the standard choice for shopfronts that want their window working after hours, and for stable, workshop and plant room openings that need airflow behind a locked door.
How a perforated roller shutter door is built
- Punched or grille-pattern slats in steel or aluminium, in a range of open areas.
- Standard guides and locking, so the security specification is unchanged from a solid door.
- Mixed curtains with a solid lower section and perforated upper where privacy and display both matter.
- Powder-coated finishes matched to the shopfront or the building.
Perforated shutters for Benoni retail
Shops at Lakeside Mall, Northmead, Lakefield Square and along the CBD trading streets use perforated curtains so the display still sells overnight. A closed shop with a lit window is a different business from a closed shop behind a solid steel sheet.
Ventilation for stables and animal buildings
This is the application that comes up most on the Benoni plots. A stable block, a feed store or a kennel run has to be closed at night and must not be sealed, because ventilation is a welfare matter. A perforated curtain gives security and airflow together, and the open area is chosen for the building and the number of animals rather than picked from a catalogue.
Ventilation in workshops and plant rooms
Compressor housings, switch rooms and forklift charging bays through Apex need to be locked and ventilated at the same time. Charging areas in particular have a genuine ventilation requirement, and a perforated shutter is usually the simplest way to meet it.
Parking and access control openings
Basement and staff parking entrances use perforated shutters so drivers and security can see through the door. Visibility at an access point is a safety feature as much as a convenience.
Security of a perforated curtain
The perforation is in the slat face; the strength is in the slat section, the end locks, the guide depth and the bottom rail. A properly specified perforated door secures an opening as well as a solid one. On high-risk street frontages we run a solid lower section and perforate above reach.
Choosing the open area
More open area means more light and airflow and a lighter door. Less means more privacy and a more solid appearance. We show samples rather than quote percentages, because the difference is obvious at a glance and impossible on paper.
