External roller shutters are a solution that combines several functions at the same time. They protect the interior from excessive sunlight, help improve thermal comfort, increase the privacy of residents, and can also be another barrier to accessing the window.
It is no wonder that they are increasingly being installed both in new homes and during the modernization of existing buildings.
More privacy every day
One of the biggest advantages of external roller shutters is the ability to quickly cut off the interior from the environment.
This is especially important in homes close to the street, sidewalk, or adjacent property. After lowering the blind, we limit the visibility of the interior, so that we can feel more at ease even in the evening when the light is on in the rooms.
The degree of lowering of the armor can be adjusted to the situation, at the same time adjusting the amount of light entering the room.
External roller shutters and safety
Blinds can also increase the level of protection for your home.
The lowered curtain creates an additional obstacle in front of the glass and window sash, hindering direct access to the joinery. Properly selected guides, solid construction and additional protections can further increase the level of protection.
However, it is worth remembering that external blinds do not replace a properly secured window. The best result is a combination of solid carpentry, the right fittings, protective glass and roller shutters.
Protection from the sun and high temperature
In summer, blinds allow you to limit the heating of rooms, because they stop a significant amount of solar radiation even in front of the glass.
This is particularly important for large glazing on the south and west sides.
In winter, a closed roller shutter can create an additional layer between the window and the environment, helping to limit the cooling of the window zone.
