Security Shutters in South Africa

While many homeowners think of security doors or window shutters as large metal gates or bars, our range of security shutters provide an effective yet aesthetically pleasing addition to your home.

These shutters are made from aluminium and can be custom-made to fit various window and door openings. Primarily working as a physical barrier to prevent forced entry, they also provide protection against harsh weather or loud noise.

The shutters can be operated manually, allowing you to easily adjust the slats to achieve your desired level of light, airflow, or privacy. When not needed, they can often slide closed or be neatly stacked away, providing an unobstructed view. Many security shutters also incorporate advanced locking mechanisms, such as multi-point locking systems and secure cylinder locks.

In most cases, installing security shutters involves securely fastening the shutter frame to the existing window or door frame using specialised hardware. Any locking mechanisms are then added if required, and the adjustable louvres are tested to ensure smooth operation and a secure fit.

Installing security shutters is a precise process that is best handled by experienced professionals to ensure optimal security and functionality. Professional installation guarantees that the shutters are correctly aligned, operate flawlessly, and provide the maximum level of security for your property.

Accurate measurement is crucial for custom-made security shutters to ensure a perfect fit and effective reinforcements for security. While professional installation is recommended, the process typically involves measuring the width and height of the window or door opening in several places (top, middle, bottom for width; left, middle, right for height).

Considerations are also made for the type of frame, the depth of the reveal, and any obstructions that might impact the shutter’s operation or stacking. It’s highly recommended to have a trained consultant conduct the final measurements to guarantee precision and prevent costly errors.

Cleaning security shutters is straightforward and helps maintain the shutters’ appearance and functionality. 

For routine cleaning, simply wipe down the aluminium frames and louvres with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and light grime. 

For more stubborn dirt, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by rinsing with a clean, damp cloth and drying thoroughly. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or scouring pads, as these can damage the powder coating. 

Regular cleaning will keep your security shutters looking their best and operating smoothly for years to come.
