Extruded Aluminum
Extruded Rolling Security Shutters Built for Maximum Protection
Heavy-duty rolling shutters engineered from solid extruded aluminum. Protect residences, storefronts, vacation properties, and commercial buildings from break-ins, severe weather, and everyday wear.
What Are Extruded Slats?
What Makes Extruded Slats Different?
Extruded slats are formed from solid aluminum with thick, durable walls, built to deliver maximum security and storm protection. Unlike insulated (foam-filled) shutters, extruded slats use heavy aluminum walls designed to withstand impacts, forced-entry attempts, and extreme weather.
Maximum Security
Thick extruded aluminum walls resist cutting, prying, and forced entry.
Hurricane Protection
Available in hurricane-rated configurations for high-wind zones.
Impact Resistance
Built to withstand flying debris and high-impact weather conditions.
Long-Term Durability
Corrosion-resistant aluminum built to perform for years to come.
End-Retention Available
Locks slats in the guide rails for maximum security and storm protection.
Residential & Commercial
Versatile protection for homes, storefronts, and large commercial openings.
