Finding the right balance between security, environment, at home aesthetics is a challenge. We work hard to have the attractive and inviting homes that we want to come home to every day. One of the best ways to improve your home to protect your family and offer additional features for their comfort is to add motorized rolling shutters on the exterior windows or screened-in areas of your property.
What are Shutter Screens?
You have probably seen shutter screens before in beachside cabins or movies set in a desert climate. This is because quality shutters can be automatically rolled down whenever there is a sandstorm or extreme weather to help protect the windows underneath. All that wind kicks up a lot of sand.
Shutter screens contain the same basic components like a slat curtain, guide channels, and some form of top-box where the motor is concealed, and the shutter can be raised whenever you don’t want to use it.
How Do Shutter Screens Help?
The first real quality benefit of having motorized security shutters is the convenience factor. Many homeowners around the United States may be older in age or in some way physically unable to put on temporary shutters whenever there is a storm or a security concern. Having an automatic system that you can open and close with the flick of a button makes life a lot easier.
Shutter screens are also excellent for deterring potential burglars. People who want to steal from you will often try and take advantage of screened-in porches or windows that look like they may be unlocked to climb into your house. Having a motorized rolling shutters system closes off those areas. It makes it significantly harder for someone to break into your home without making a bunch of noise. The best way to deter a thief is a show them that you know they are there with noise and bright lights.
Motorized rolling shutters are helpful with temperature regulation. This is an easy way to shade your home during scorching days and keeping the interior cool. Anything to help with heating and cooling costs is beneficial to your home.
They also tend to be a bit more fire-resistant than regular drywall or window panes. That could help whenever there is a threat of fire around your home.
Finally, there is the storm factor. People living in the northeast down to the Florida panhandle experience different types of storms that kick up dirt, gravel, and other debris that can cause damage to the side of your house and window panes. Installing quality shutter screens adds a layer of protection to your home that will reduce the cost of maintenance, repairs, or insurance premiums.
