1. Anyone who is in retail, operates
office premises, or owns any
type of business space, knows
that the glass in your windows
and door can be susceptible
to damage in a variety of ways.
Whether it be through vandalism,
attempted break-in, or caused by
extreme weather and storms, your
glass can be left vulnerable and
unprotected. Added to this is the
risk that broken glass can pose to
health and safety, the damage it
can inflict on stock and equipment,
and the ease with which it can ruin
fixtures and fittings.
Roller shutters, however, can provide a
vital extra layer of defence against any or
all of these challenges, saving you both
money and time, as the clean-up job
from a broken display window or office
door is expensive, time consuming and
extremely inconvenient.
When roller shutters are closed, it
means that vandals are unable to cause
any damage to your valuable glass
shopfront or the windows of your office
premises. This keeps your place of
business looking professional and ready
for work, but it also means you avoid
that awful call-out in the middle of the
night to come and secure your shop or
retail outlet after the windows have been
smashed or damaged.
As an extension of this, shutters will
also make your premises a good deal
more secure. Statistics on break-ins
and burglary can sometimes make
depressing reading, and there is no
doubt that windows are one of the
main points of access for opportunistic
burglars. Therefore, it is prudent to do
all you can to minimise the risk, and
roller shutters can play an important role
in this because they provide both an
actual, physical barrier as well as a visual
deterrence.
Roller Shutters for Commercial
and Business Premises

2. Shutters are made from
high-grade aluminium and
put together as a system of
interlocking slats, and for
this reason they are able
to withstand the use of
significant force, while the
internal locking mechanism
is resistant to attempts to
prise or jemmy them open.
Therefore, the effort required
to gain access to premises
protected by roller shutters is
beyond the capabilities and
patience of most burglars.
Similarly, the costs involved
in repairing broken
windows and doors after
storm damage can also be
significant. Strong winds
frequently cause damage
to premises because debris
and broken tree branches
can easily be blown at great
speed straight through
exposed glass. This of
course not leads not only to
significant expense in having
the glass replaced, but can
also to lead to valuable
stock, fixtures and fittings
becoming water damaged
or soiled as a result of
rain and hail blowing
in through a smashed
window. In addition, the
resultant broken glass
can likewise ruin carpets,
office equipment and other
valuable assets.
However, the innate strength
of roller shutters means that
this sort of damage can be
avoided and your premises
will remain secure and
damage-free in even the
most hostile weather, with
roller shutters that conform
to CSIRO cyclone standards
now available.
Overall therefore, for any
business owner, retail
manager or anyone who
owns or operates office
space, roller shutters
represent a cost-efficient
investment that could save
you significant sums in the
long term with regards
to repairing the damage
caused by vandals,
attempted break-
ins and extreme
weather.
