Roller Shutters

Roller Shutters - high level of safety!

Roller shutters are a modern exterior solution, which provides a triple benefit - energy and cost savings, sound isolation, and an enhanced safety function. It is essential to not only choose a colour that matches the facade of the house - but also to pick a suitable shutter system and installation method. Our shutters are made of steel and aluminium, and will not need maintenance for a long time. Plus - if necessary, they can be easily cleaned.

Lex Blinds offers a wide assortment of innovative custom roller shutters (UK). These are considered modern and stylish alternatives to traditional iron bars. If installed correctly, external shutters for windows and doors work as safety measures and may reduce thermal losses significantly during the cold season. Not to mention they work perfectly as a sound insulation solution. Read on and learn more about our vast assortment and perks that quality electric outdoor shutters provide for homes, offices and restaurants – basically, any modern building of any purpose.

Exterior Shutters for Doors and Windows – Enhanced Security System

While many of our popular outdoor blinds offer efficient light, heat and privacy control, metal roller shutter doors or windows on top of that add an extra layer of physical security. Made-to-measure, high-quality Lex Blinds products of this sort perform 100% protective functions: they protect the windows of homes, shops, and offices against hooligans and burglars, protect the residents on the ground floor from curious looks, etc. Thus, we are confident – these window treatments of all exterior-mounted options provide one of the highest, if not the highest, levels of safety.

Other Benefits of External Roller Shutters (UK)

Beyond question, innovative external shields will complement any exterior – choose any construction colour from the RAL palette. However, it is essential to not only select a colour that matches the house's facade but also to pick a suitable system and installation method. That's the more complex part, but not to worry – our experienced specialists will help to find the best solution individually.

Besides the enhanced safety function, modern exterior shields provide other benefits when creating resource-efficient and comfortable homes. For instance:

    a) Sound isolation
    b) Temperature regulation

Our products are made of steel and aluminium and will not need maintenance for a long time. Plus – if necessary, they can be easily cleaned. These window treatments guarantee reliable thermal isolation providing the possibility to save on heating or air conditioning on hot summer days. If you are tired of noise outside – hearing car motors, barking of homeless dogs, or discussions of passers-by – Lex Blinds outdoor shields may solve this problem.

Essential Aspects When Choosing Custom Roller Shutters

Usually, exterior security shields are divided into two main categories – products for windows and doors. Obviously, products' sizes and even frequency of use differ, but qualities and selection criteria are similar. Still, there are more details to look into – shades also vary depending on the following:

• Materials
• Systems
• Operation mechanisms
• Integrated extra functions

Further, we'll discuss the subtleties of solutions for windows and doors. Also, one of the most relevant questions – how to know which control mechanism to choose?

1) Security Roller Shutters for Windows

Each Lexblinds motorised rolling shutter is durable and sturdy but, at the same time – flexible in terms of size and design choices. These shades fit various window forms and types. Our custom-made aluminium products are perfect for homes as well as offices or showcases of shops. Multiple projects we've worked on prove you can enjoy the perks of safety shades in different buildings.

Choose a design and colours that would complement the exterior design and architecture of the building. You want to maintain the same harmonious stylistic. Therefore, considering the shades, you should consider covering windows with the same products, at least on that floor. When it comes to safety shades, usually, it's the first-floor windows.

2)  Aluminium Roller Shutter Doors

Whether you consider a secure terrace or garage entrance, a quality manual or electric rolling door adds an extra physical security layer. It works as an effective deterrent against thieves. If your primary concern is security, pay attention to materials. Aluminium look good and are sturdy.

Moreover, it's wise to think of the same type and style of window and door treatments for the whole building or the relevant floor. As products for doors are bigger and are usually used more often, electric solutions turn out to be more efficient.

Manual or Electric Roller Shutters?

As we've briefly mentioned, outdoor shields could be of different systems and control mechanisms. As technologies upgrade, manually controlled systems are now considered classics. And it still works for some home or commercial building owners. The comfort of using manually operated mechanisms mostly depends on the following:

    a) Architectural solutions
    b) Frequency of use

Here at Lex Blinds, you can choose a preferred mode of operation: cord, knob or motor. Automated electric shades are by no means one of the latest and most innovative solutions. You can even control them remotely – e. g., via application or voice command using one of the most popular smart home systems. This way, you can create a desired level of privacy and remotely control the temperature at home.

One more thing – if you aren't experienced in more complex systems installation, it's better to leave this work to experts. You don't want to leave any security or efficient resource management gaps.
