Why choose the Ultra Compact Roller Shutter?

The Smallest Shutter Box on the Market — Where Space, Security & Style Matter Most

The Ultra Compact Vortex Roller Shutter is a game-changer in shutter design, delivering exceptional security in an ultra-slim, architecturally discreet form. Engineered with a patented system that allows the shutter curtain to coil tighter than any traditional model, the Vortex offers the smallest shutter box available globally—as little as 165mm for a 2.2m high opening.

This makes it the perfect choice for high-end retail, commercial, and residential environments where space is limited, and clean aesthetics are a must.


Ultra-Slim Shutter Box – Industry-Leading Design

  •    Utilising a unique vortex coiling system, this shutter achieves a box size up to 50% smaller than conventional roller shutters.
  •   Ideal for architectural integrations, shopfronts, and recessed or exposed installations where space is restricted or design is a priority.
