Protect your home, your loved ones, and your prized possessions.
You deserve to feel safe in your own home. Rolling shutters will keep out criminals, extreme weather, and prying eyes — while increasing your energy efficiency. Since 1979 we’ve designed, manufactured, and installed thousands of residential rolling shutters for houses, vacation homes, patios, and outdoor TV enclosures.
Your home is your castle. Whether you’re moving into a new home, or you settled into your current house many years ago, it’s your right to feel comfortable where you live. That’s why you need a proven solution that stops criminal intrusions, protects against extreme weather, and keeps out unwanted sunlight, heat, and cold.Â
Unfortunately, you don’t have many options to solve these problems. Nobody wants to put bars over their windows, security systems do nothing to stop intrusions, and simple products like blackout blinds and insulated curtains never really work.
Our rolling shutters solve these problems. They are reinforced metal barriers that roll down and perfectly seal your house, vacation home, or outdoor space at a moment’s notice, and roll up and disappear when you don’t need them. They will:
At Roll-A-Shield we offer rolling shutters that are custom-built for residential use — not heavy-duty commercial systems — that are attractive, convenient, and easy to operate.
Secure your home — and everyone and everything in it. Our shutters create a physical barrier that stops criminals from targeting you, your loved ones, and your belongings. Roll down your shutters anytime you want peace of mind — when you leave the house, when you go to bed at night, or when you go on vacation — and apply fast, effective, and convenient physical security to your home when you need it most.Â
Protect your property during the off-season. Alarms and surveillance systems just raise an alert when someone enters your property — our shutters keep them out. Stop lugging away and storing your patio furniture, golf carts, and other belongings at the end of each season. Get custom shutters that fit your vacation home’s windows, patio, carport, or other entrances, and leave for months at a time without worry.
Shrink your energy bills, keep heat out of your home, and create perfect darkness at the push of a button. Our solid, insulated shutters block 100% of direct sunlight from entering your home, and stop up to 70% of ambient heat from filling a room. The result? Cooler homes, easier temperature control, less damage to furniture, and a level of darkness that even the best blackout curtains could never give you.
Deploy a time-tested solution that defends your property against extreme weather. Driving rain and snow can cause water damage. Extreme winds can scatter patio furniture and hurl objects into windows. Violent waves can batter your property and coat it in sea foam. Forest fires can incinerate your home if you let a single ember in. Our rolling shutters can stop all of these worst-case-scenarios created by the weather.
Keep dust, rain, snow, and sun off your outdoor TV — and keep it from getting stolen when you’re inside or away from the house. Our shutters can cover just your TV, or your entire TV enclosure, letting you create a private, secluded, and intimate outdoor environment for you and your loved ones. Customize the look, feel, and operation of your shutters to ensure they fit seamlessly into your outdoor entertainment center.
Protect your investments in outdoor living. Our rolling shutters seal off your entire patio or outdoor living space and secure it from criminals, extreme weather, and other threats — and secure them while you sleep, when you leave the house, or when you go on an extended vacation. Design and install custom shutters that perfectly fit your unique outdoor space and enclose it with a seamless physical barrier that nothing can get in.
The solution you’ve been looking for. Blackout curtains and blinds never work as advertised, and always let in some light. Our rolling shutters provide perfect darkness by blocking 100% of the light trying to get in. They create this complete seal by sitting inside a closed track that keeps every sliver of light out. At the same time, they create total privacy and make it impossible for prying eyes to see inside your space.
Keep outside noise outside. Cut ambient sound in half. Our rolling shutters reduce the noise entering your home by up to 50%. They give you a solid, insulated physical barrier to outside sound anytime you need to sleep, give your child a nap, focus on work, or just enjoy some peace and quiet. These are essential for anyone who lives on a busy street, or near loud neighbors, yardwork, or ongoing construction projects.
Roll-A-Shield residential shutters are commonly installed on home windows, entry and sliding doors, garages, patios, outdoor kitchens, and outdoor TV enclosures. They are custom-built to fit any opening on your property.
Rolling shutters create a solid physical barrier over your windows and doors that prevents break-ins. Unlike alarms that only alert you after an intrusion has begun, shutters physically stop criminals before they can gain entry. See how homeowners use them in our residential security overview.
Yes. When closed, insulated slats and the air gap behind them slow heat coming through your windows, which helps reduce the load on your AC during Arizona summers.
Yes. Roll-A-Shield custom-builds every shutter to fit the specific dimensions of your existing windows and doors. No standard sizing is used, so nearly any opening can be accommodated, and very large or unusual openings get a site review first. Learn how to measure your openings.
Yes. Closed shutters with insulated slats tested at up to 10 dB of added noise insulation, which helps homes near busy roads or airports. See the test details.
Yes. Roll-A-Shield motorized shutters can be operated remotely using wall switches, remote controls, keypads, key fobs, or a smartphone app. You can open and close your shutters from anywhere in your home or even remotely.
No. Roll-A-Shield shutters require minimal maintenance. Periodic cleaning of the slats and tracks, along with a light dry-silicone spray on the tracks if they feel stiff, is generally all that is needed to keep your shutters operating smoothly for years. If something does go wrong, our repair team can help.
Most residential rolling shutter projects are completed within approximately four weeks from the time your order is confirmed. The actual on-site installation is typically completed in a single day, depending on the number of openings, by our in-house installers.
Each shutter is priced to its exact size, plus the slat type and whether it’s manual or motorized, so a small window costs much less than a wide patio door. We give you an exact quote for your home after measuring, with installation listed separately; see our window security shutters for options.
The price per window depends on its width and height, the slat style and how you operate it (strap, crank, electric or solar). Since every shutter is custom-made, the best way to get a per-window price is a free quote for your windows.
Exterior rolling shutters roll down over your windows to block intruders, the Arizona sun and monsoon dust storms. When you don’t need them, they roll up into a compact box above the window.
Yes. Unlike decorative shutters, rolling shutters close all the way and seal off the window with a solid aluminum curtain that runs in side guide rails. You can lower them partway for shade or close them fully for security and privacy.
In most cases, yes. Bay windows aren’t a standard shape, so we review photos or measure on site first to plan the mounting and any build-outs needed.
Measure the width and height of the opening at several points and write down both the largest and smallest numbers; our measuring guide walks through surface and recessed mounts. Local customers don’t need to measure at all, because our team takes exact measurements during the estimate.
Yes. Customers outside the Phoenix area can install shutters themselves using our specs, or go through our dealer and installer network. In metro Phoenix, our own licensed crews do the installation.
Our standard shutters are extruded aluminum, which balances strength, durability and smooth operation. For homes that need the maximum physical security, we can also source steel security shutters.
Yes. You can choose manual strap or crank, electric, or solar-powered shutters. An optional manual override lets you still operate a motorized shutter if the motor or power fails.
Yes. Rolling shutters have a clean, low-profile look and come in several colors to match your home’s exterior. If your HOA restricts exterior changes, you can mount them inside the window opening instead.
