apertured

Containing a hole

Apertured describes something that has an aperture—an opening, hole, or gap.

The term appears most often in technical contexts: an apertured disk in optics, an apertured mask in electronics, or apertured packaging that allows visibility of contents.

It functions as the adjectival form of aperture, indicating that the thing modified has been designed or constructed with one or more deliberate openings.
