The standard windows are the most susceptible parts of the house that aid in Housebreaking. In order to make the highly susceptible windows burglary deterrent, you will have to install window roller shutters. 



What Is Window Roller Shutter?

The window roller shutters are nothing but a stable covering for the window. It generally features a frame, vertical stiles or horizontal rails. As the name roller shutter denotes the burglar deterrent cover for the windows can be rolled or louvered manually or with a remote control.

  • Bay window: The Bay window shutters are aesthetically designed to blend with the bay window design. They perfectly fit the window design but you generally have very limited choices as far as shutters for bay windows are concerned.

  • Electrical operation: The system is similar to that of manual operation roller shutters but the way of using a handle is different as they are operated with the motor. This is fairly versatile than the manual shutters. 

  • Remote control: It is the upgraded version of the electrical window roller shutters style. That is instead of operating the shutter standing next to the window, you would be able to do it from any part of the house.
