Residential Roller Shutter Doors in Springs

• Insulated aluminium, quiet running
• Battery backup for load shedding

Residential roller shutter doors in Springs go on three kinds of opening: a patio or stacking door, a garage, and a side entrance nobody watches. The housing runs from the older single-garage stock through Geduld, Bakerton, Petersfield and Strubenvale to the newer clusters in Selcourt, Casseldale and Pollak Park, and the right door is different in each.

Residential roller shutter doors we install in Springs

• Patio and stacking door shutters that close a large glass opening without blocking it during the day.
• Garage roller shutters where headroom will not take a sectional door.
• Side and service entrance shutters on the openings that actually get used to get in.
• Window shutters where a room needs closing off while the house is empty.

Roller shutters for older Springs houses

The mid-century housing through Geduld, Bakerton, Strubenvale and the streets around the CBD has narrow garages and very little headroom. A roller shutter is often the only door that fits, because it needs almost no ceiling space compared with a sectional or a tip-up door.

Openings that are no longer square

On older Springs properties the building may have settled over the years, and a reveal that measures one width at the top and another at the bottom is common. A shutter can be built to an out-of-square opening where a panelled door cannot, which is one of the practical reasons we fit so many of them here. We measure top, middle and bottom rather than once.

Roller shutters in complexes and estates

Cluster developments through Selcourt, Casseldale, Selection Park and Pollak Park usually have body corporate rules on external appearance. We work to the approved colour and profile and provide the specification in writing, so the trustees have something to approve rather than a photograph after the fact.

Storms, hail and afternoon sun

East Rand summer storms arrive hard, and a closed shutter over a west-facing patio takes both the sun before them and the hail during them. Perforated curtains let light through where a room should not go completely dark.

Motorised residential shutters

Motorised shutters get closed every night; heavy manual ones do not. We fit tube motors inside the barrel with a remote and a wall switch, and every install has a manual release for outages. Shutters can run on a timer or off the alarm system where the household wants it.

Maintenance on a home shutter

Very little, but not nothing. Guides need clearing, and an annual service costs less than the motor it protects.

What a residential roller shutter door costs in Springs

Priced on opening size, curtain type, finish and whether it is motorised. We measure on site, because reveals on older houses are rarely square and a door built from a photo does not fit.
