Commercial Security Shutters

Commercial roller shutters are a popular security solution for businesses of all sizes. These shutters are designed to provide a secure barrier between the interior of a commercial property and the outside world, protecting against theft, vandalism, and other forms of criminal activity. They are typically made from high-quality materials, such as aluminum or steel, and can be customized to fit the specific needs of each business. In addition to providing security, commercial roller shutters can also help to improve energy efficiency by reducing heat loss in the winter and heat gain in the summer. They are easy to operate and can be controlled manually or with the use of a remote control. Overall, commercial roller shutters are a reliable and effective solution for businesses looking to enhance their security and protect their assets.

When buying commercial roller shutters, some of the top questions that people often ask include:

1. What level of security do the shutters provide? Are they strong enough to prevent break-ins and protect against vandalism?

All roller shutters will protect against vandalism. The security level depends on the roller shutter. We have a range of commercial shutters ranging from medium security up to Security Rated LPS1175 Security Level 4. The security-rated roller shutters are independently attack tested, which are police and insurance-preferred specifications. The higher the security the longer it will take someone to break through the shutter but also more expensive the roller shutter. The security level of the roller shutter should be dependent on the risk and budget.

2. How durable are the shutters? Will they be able to withstand heavy use and exposure to the elements over time?

Roller shutters are manufactured to be durable, as they are normally used every day and exposed to the elements. Some roller shutters are more durable than others, this will depend on the usage per day and environment. Aluminium roller shutters are better suited for the elements, as they won't rust. If the roller shutter is is going to get heavy use ie; operated many times per day, then you need to look at Industrial Roller Shutters as the motors are rated based on the amount of usage per day.

3. What customization options are available? Can the shutters be tailored to fit specific openings or requirements?

Commercial roller shutters are custom-made to suit your openings and requirements. You have a large choice of solid or vision slats, controls and colours.

4. What kind of maintenance is required to keep the shutters functioning properly?

Commercial roller shutters should be serviced annually to ensure they run correctly, reduce wear and tear and maintain the warranties. It is also a legal requirement to service the roller shutters as they are classed as machinery under the H&S Act. You can read more about roller shutter servicing.

5. Are there any safety features included with the shutters?

Yes, roller shutters are fitted with safety features are they are machinery and can cause injury. Roller shutters fitted over doorways must by law have anti fall back devices fitted, in case the motor fails and prevents the shutter from dropping like a guillotine. If an electric roller shutter cannot be seen from the operating switch or the remote control is fitted, then safety devices must be fitted to stop the shutter from closing on someone.

These are just a few examples of the questions that people may have when considering purchasing commercial roller shutters. Other factors to consider may include the cost, the level of insulation provided, and the overall aesthetic appearance of the shutters. It's important to do your research and ask any questions you may have to ensure that you choose the right roller shutters for your business needs.
