Tips for choosing the right security roller shutters

• Material- In this case, stainless steel and aluminium are the two best options to select from. From durability point of view, stainless steel is certainly much better when compared to aluminium. However, the price of steel roller shutters is also higher. Aluminium roller shutters are also durable, and they are quite light in weight too, which in turn makes it easy for the women to lift and shut the roller shutters.
• Durability- The durability of the roller shutters depend a lot on the built quality, and thickness of the metal sheet. In case you want customized roller shutters then you will have the freedom to select the thickness of the metal sheet used for making the same. A thickness of 1.25 mm to 1.75 mm is considered as ideal. Hence, choose the metal sheet accordingly.
• Weather protection- People install the security roller shutters usually as the main gate; and therefore, the shutter remains exposed to the various elements of weather all through the year. For this reason, if the material used in the roller shutter and the coating applied on it are not good enough, the shutter will not be able to last long. Anti-corrosion paint should be applied on the sheet of the roller shutter, which in turn will prevent the formation of rust.

Hence, before you finalize any model, it would be better to take a detailed look at the specifications of the roller shutters; such as- the weight of the metal used in the shutter; the materials used; locking mechanisms; and many more. Making a comparison between the prices quoted by various suppliers can help you narrow down your option. Options like automatic roller shutters tend make its operation more convenient, but that comes with an added price. With automatic shutters, you need to ensure that you undertake routine maintenance without fail. Routine services are provided by the company as part of its annual maintenance for a nominal service charge.
