External Roller Shutters. Protection That Sits Outside the Glass.

External roller shutters mount on the outside of your window or door and block heat, noise, and weather before they reach the glass. Internal blinds sit behind the glass and only manage what’s already entered the room. For heat reduction alone, external shutters are dramatically more effective because they intercept sunlight before it passes through.

Yes. The headbox and guide rails mount directly onto the external wall using masonry anchors (for brick and render) or through-bolts with packers (for weatherboard). No structural changes are needed. You keep your current glass, frames, and window hardware. See our installation process for the four steps from measure to install.

Reveal fit (in-reveal) means the headbox and guide rails sit inside the window opening for a flush finish from the street. It requires enough reveal depth and works best on newer homes. Face fit (on-wall) means the headbox and guide rails mount on the wall surface outside the window opening. It works on any window regardless of reveal depth and is the most common option for existing Melbourne homes. Our team assesses every window during the free measure.
