Roller shutters – indispensable in the home, underestimated everyday wonder
Shutters for inside or outside - in plastic, aluminium or stainless steel. You see them everywhere: roller shutters. Admittedly, we also like window shutters or roller shutters made of wood. But as beautiful as wood is, when it comes to durability, efficiency and functionality, aluminium is unbeaten. The precision and longevity of Alulux brand-name roller shutters can simply not be achieved with wood and certainly not for a reasonable price. In the 130 years since roller shutters were invented, they have changed often. But one thing has remained the same - the roller shutter serves so many useful functions for windows and doors, that it is impossible to imagine life without them.
However, roller shutters are not actually customary. In particular, roller shutters are not well-known outside of Central Europe and even less used. Roller shutters serve seven very useful purposes for buildings: they block curious looks from outside (screening from view), insulate to prevent energy losses in winter (cold protection) and keep the summer heat outside (thermal insulation). They provide a shield against loud, everyday sounds (noise protection), thunderstorms (storm protection) and make work difficult for pilferers (burglary protection). It is important that the installed model qualitatively performs all these functions and fits with the "building closure" (window or door). Inexpensive products for self installation are not recommended, it is better to go with a specialist.
The professional service company (from the roller shutters and sun protection technicians association) provides individualised consulting, recommends the most suitable product and ensures proper working order, including following installation. Furthermore, they only install roller shutters which meet today's demands, completely with motor and an automatic control unit. The roller shutter moves easily at the push of a button and, when residents are absent, ensures burglary protection all on its own - the roller shutters close as soon as it is dark, making break-ins difficult.
