Shutters are all about letting the light in and opening your home to nature or blocking the light and giving you privacy within your home; however, shutters also provide security – specifically aluminium shutters. Are you curious as to how these aesthetic shutters could also act as a form of security for you and your loved ones? Read about the security provided by aluminium shutters below:

Strong

Shutters are built to be strong.  Hardwood and aluminium shutters are strong and sturdy options for window treatments; however, aluminium provides some extra security. At Blinds Mart we offer aluminium shutters that come with spring loaded bolt systems paired with sliding lock mechanisms that reinforce the security of your shutters.

Delaying

The strength of the aluminium shutters paired with the strength of the locking system is helpful in delaying outsiders from entering your home. They may be able to get through your window quickly, but the shutters will hold them back, giving you time to act by calling the police. Often, the delay of getting through the shutters will be enough to get rid of potential threats due to a fear of being caught.

Noisy

Aluminium shutters make noise. There is no way that someone would be able to get through your shutter barrier without causing a racket. This is a vital part of the security characteristics that these shutters have to offer as the noise will alert you or your family members to the threat as soon as possible.
