I have previously talked about Roller Garage Doors and what a convenience they can bring to your life. In addition to the convenience, a Roller Garage Door can provide some of the highest security for your garage – creating an almost impenetrable barrier when closed.
Employing almost identical techniques this same level of security can now be added to windows and doors in you home offering you personal security when you are at home and peace of mind when you are out.
Security Shutters are roller blinds that roll up in the same way as the Roller Garage Doors. The only main difference is that the Security Shutters tend to be made of a smaller height slat. Generally a Roller Garage Door slat will have a height of 77mm where as a Security Shutter slat will only be 38mm in height. This allows Security Shutters to roll into much tighter roller casing to allow them to blend with your home and look almost unnoticeable when retracted.
Whilst the majority of Security Shutters are fitted on the outside of your property, the whole device can be spun round to be situated internally. The only negative here is that you lose the protection of your glass within your window though your property remains secure.
Security Shutters can be operated in many ways. Popular methods these days are for the Security Shutters to be motorised allowing convenience of use. using this technique you could operate a whole house full of Security Shutters just by the click of one button.
Manual Security Shutters are available that utilise a belt mechanism on the inside of the your home that you can lower and raise the Shutter without you having to venture outside.
Whilst the Security Shutters offer maximum security one of the great benefits of having them installed to your property is the fact they act as a huge deterrent for any wannabe intruder. Why would they attempt to break in when there is security in place when they can move on to the next property that is much easier to access.
On top of the security aspect, Security Shutters, and their foam filled aluminium slats, offer great insulation for your home against both the cold winters and the hot summers. In addition to this they act a great noise barrier – stop outside noises getting in, stop internal noises getting out!

Security shutters – and the doors and windows security electric garage door it were very good. I think everyone likes that.
One additional benefit of security shutters is that it also helps in case powerful winds of a storm is making objects fly to weak areas of your home like glass windows. As a person living in PR we use then to protect or homes from flying objects during storms.

I have always been concerned about our garage door security. Especially after I say a thief in the show “It Takes a Thief” break out a garage window and make the garage door open automatically. On one episode he simply used a crow bar and pushed the garage door up enough for him to slide under. I think garage door security seriously needs to be improved and I appreciate you pointing out the roller garage doors.

My garage door is having issues and I am finding out it is in the wiring. I have also found out that getting it repaired is going to cost almost as much as a new one. So I have decided to look around at new garage doors and just go with a fresh new install.
Security Shutters are great for all kinds of residential properties.
Do you have these Shutters on your windows all the time? – even when your home.
So you don’t get any light into your house?
This is so interesting. You really have a talent in this field. Best of luck.
I am waiting for Another one.
I think that they are so convinient!
And it gives me something to smile about, because my 5 year old daughter loves them so much. She finds them awe inspiring lol.

In today’s world it seems like everybody will need security shutters soon.
By far, the greatest advantage is that you can park right in front of the door. Roller doors require less space both inside and outside the garage.
i am always concerned about garage doors but not now as i came to know about these secure doors.thanks for posting
Next to a home alarm, these security shutters are very effective! Love them!
People often think of security shutters as being horrible looking metal shutters you sometimes see outside shops. But they can be a lot more elegant than that and look very classy.
i have had my house broken into twice whilst on holiday. while i’m home, two big dogs do a pretty good job protecting the house but when i’m away and they’re in kennels, security shutters do the barking!
I love the idea of putting security shutters on a home, not only do they prevent theft and keep noise out, they also add value to your home so down the road if you are trying to make some money off your house you will have that to your advantage. 🙂
