Aluminium Roller Shutters
No other product on the market can provide all the qualities of an Aluminium Roller Shutter in one, and it is especially suitable for lock-up-and-go holiday homes.
Widely used in Europe, Aluminium Roller Shutters have become increasingly popular in South Africa, not only for the excellent security they provide but also for their other outstanding features. Well known for carefree maintenance and excellent durability, Aluminium Roller Shutters provide the aesthetic solution for people who command quality and style.
Aluminium Roller Shutters provide a number of excellent features for every season:
- Security and privacy at the push of a button
- Increased protection against break-in
- Sun protection from heat and UV radiation PLUS thermal insulation in winter
- Protection of your interior furniture, fabrics and artwork
- Protection from rain, wind and dust
- Sound insulation from traffic, neighbours and animals
- Light regulation for your home-theatre and AV equipment
Slat Types
We offer two basic slat types, namely Roll-formed or Extruded, and both are manufactured exclusively from aluminium for its light weight and excellent durability. Both slat types are supplied in a range of slat sizes (40mm, 55mm and 77mm) to suit the opening size to be covered.
Roll-formed slats are made from high quality aluminium sheeting coils that are wet-coated in stove-baked enamel and rolled into a hollow profile that is then injected with CFC-free polyurethane foam. They are very light weight yet provide good strength with excellent thermal and noise insulation properties. Roll-formed slats are an economical and quick solution suitable for most applications, but are only available in a fixed range of colours.
Extruded aluminium slats provide greater strength at the expense of higher weight and cost. They are epoxy powder coated to any of the wide range of available colours to optimally match the architectural design requirements. Extruded slats are the preferred solution where the primary application is security, where the opening sizes are too large for roll-formed slats to span, or where the standard pre-coated colours of roll-formed slats are not aesthetically suitable necessitating a custom powder coating colour.
Applications
- Windows (light & UV block-out, heat control, privacy, security)
- Doors (security, access control)
- Garages and Basements
- Serving hatches (kitchens, stores, kiosks, cashiers, reception)
- Passageways (security, partitioning, safe-haven)
- Cabinets and Toolboxes
- Delivery Vehicles and Trailers
Cassette Types
The Aluminium Roller Shutter is protected inside either a built-in galvanised steel or wooden box for new buildings, or inside a neat roll-formed aluminum cassette for retrofitting onto existing buildings. Built-in boxes are custom-designed for the specific application, while add-on cassette size is dependent on the size of the opening, the shaft diameter and the slat type.
Motorised shutters means no more tedious manual operation!
Life is so much simpler when you just need to press a button to operate your shutters. And with an RTS motor, you can have the full comfort of remote control.
