The Benefits of Installing Roll Shutters...

Security

Roll shutter window shutters or shutter doors offer an additional layer of security to your structure. Ideal for vacation cabins, cottages or beach houses, roll shutter security blinds offer increased burglary protection.

Alulux aluminum blinds are much sturdier and more durable than less expensive and less secure PVC blinds. Our exterior roller shutter curtains are manufactured to create an exceptionally tight fit between slats so that it is much more difficult for would-be intruders to break into your home. Just having roll shutters on your building is a deterrent to most potential housebreakers.

Our roll shutters can be retrofitted with a number of locking systems adding an extra layer of protection for your property.

Manual Controls

Manual controls are mounted on the interior next to the opening. We offer pull strap, pull cord, and winch controls.

Electric Controls

Electric operated roll shutters can be controlled by a fixed control switch or by remote.

Endbar Locks

For those needing additional security, end bars can be retrofitted with either a key lock or bolt locks.

Electric Key Lock

A switch can be installed on electric roll shutters as a means to restrict control access.

Energy Saving and Weather Protection

Not only will your home stay cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter, our energy-saving shutters help prevent energy loss through the extra layer of insulation the shutters create between your windows and the elements. Shutters for windows can improve the u-value of older windows by up to 45% and of newer windows up to 29%. This significant improvement can reduce both your energy costs and energy usage.

Sun Screen

Installing shutters for windows offers other benefits such as protecting furniture from fading due to the sun’s harmful rays, and enhancing the longevity of both your windows and window frames. Optional upgrades include protective insect screens, remote control and smartphone enabled mechanisms, and powder coating of the shutters for an even greater selection of colours.

Noise Control

The polyurethane foam used within our roll shutters is a sound absorbing material that can reduce the noise level considerably.

Privacy

Rollshutters increase the privacy of your property. Vent holes running along the top of each slat allows light to permeate a room while still maintaining a high degree of privacy.

“We purchased Rolltec shutters for our bungalow. Our main concerns with our home were temperature and light management for our bedrooms, especially for the kids and a shift worker. Al installed the blinds personally and did it in such a short time. He took the time to make sure we understood how to use and maintain the shutters and was always available for questions. After a few years we sold our home. We think the blinds were definitely a selling feature. We were so happy when we discovered our new home also has Rolltec shutters installed! There is not a day that goes by and we don’t use at least one of the shutters. They are such and economical way to make our house comfortable and safe.” Laura Hammer
