households start using roller shutters to protect their homes
from noise and burglars. With a hot and dry climate like
Australia, especially in summer months, many households are
at risk by being in bushfire prone areas. Using bushfire roller
shutters will not only protect your privacy but also your home
from bushfires.

vulnerable. When a bushfire occurs, you have to avoid any
potential entrance for fire or embers to access your house.
Bushfire roller shutters will help to cover and protect your
windows and prevent the fire damaging your property.

During a fire event, your windows will easily break and the
most common cause is the radiant heat. A high quality bushfire
roller shutter will protect your windows from the radiant heat

households in bushfire prone areas use bushfire roller shutters
that meet the Australian Bushfire Construction Standard.
