Type Of Slat

Other Features

Key Lock

Add a key lock to your shutter as an additional layer of security. This is available for all manually-operated shutters.

End Retention

Take your shutter security the extra mile by adding end retention. This makes it nearly impossible to push the shutter out of its guiderails, ensuring that nobody gets in. This is available for our extruded slat.

Storm Bars

Concerned that extreme wind could push your shutters out of their guiderails? Invest in a storm bar to provide additional strength to your shutters on windy days.

Manual Override (CMO)

For shutters on a bedroom window or a critical commercial entrance, we offer manual overrides to allow operation of the shutter independent of the motor.

Light Control via Perforated Slits

One of the less-known features of a rolling shutter is that you can still get light through the shutter while providing protection and insulation. Because of perforation of the slat at the hinge, you can have “in-between” light control in your room.

Obstacle Detection

Our motorized shutters offer obstacle detection, ensuring that even if you forget to move the patio furniture from under the shutter, it won’t damage itself or the furniture! Shutters will gently close on an obstacle, stop, and retract to a safe position.

Smartphone App

Our shutter motors can be connected to smartphone apps / “Internet of Things” technology via a separately-sold hub. This will allow you to use common smart home apps to automate the operation of your shutters.

Ship / Pickup / Installs

We offer a variety of ways to get your shutters. For customers in the Metro Phoenix area, we will install the shutters ourselves. Outside of Arizona, we ship through a national network of dealers who will manage your installation. If you are handy enough to install your own shutter, we can ship shutters nationwide or have you pick up your shutters from our facility in Tempe, AZ.

Mix and Match

We encourage customers to consider mixing and matching their operation mechanism depending on their use case. For businesses, it may make sense to have all of your shutters operated by remote but leave the shutter over your back door keypad-operated to ensure employees can close/open your facility without a key.

We’ve been helping our customers get peace of mind since ’79! We would love to talk with you about your needs.
