Roller shutters or security shutters?

Modern security shutters are easy to use, quiet to operate, pleasing to the eye, and keep premises safe from potential attack and theft, so why do most people, when asked about security shutters Remember the image from 'Fortress Britain? 'with rows of shop windows protected by old, ugly and dirty galvanized steel roller shutters? The answer is that here in the UK we have made the mistake of installing roller blinds designed for industrial use for years in the wrong applications. Old style roller shutter doors were chain operated and made from a galvanized steel lathe that had to be well oiled and greased to prevent the 'steel on steel' action of the shutter from wearing down the components.


Everything about galvanized steel roller blinds is 'industrial' and not suitable for office buildings, shops and modern residential use as they are oversized, dirty, noisy and definitely not pretty to look at. Yes, roller blinds are now available electrically operated, but nothing else has changed for decades. It is easy to understand why many local authorities are against the use of these types of shutters on our main streets and why they refuse to grant the necessary planning permission.


Modern security shutters, with an all aluminum construction, provide the most effective and attractive solution for commercial and domestic applications. Quiet in operation, slim and visually appealing, modern continental style security shutters provide a secure and attractive security solution for both "embedded" and "embedded" applications. No oil or grease is required to keep the shutters operating and there are endless options available in louver type, control and attractive finishes. An anti-graffiti topcoat on the shutter powder paint finish completes the exterior appearance, ensuring a clean and long-lasting appearance.
