The principle of operation of rolling shutters is simple. Plates of steel, wood, plastic or aluminum, are interconnected by a groove in the groove so that they can rotate relative to each other, wound on a round or octagonal shaft, respectively, releasing or closing access to the window or doorway. On each side of the vertical canvas, recruited from the plates, fix the rails on which the blade moves up and down. The second birth of the product has received since the Second World War with the development of modern technology. Profile for a modern roller blinds made either by a roller rolling of steel or aluminum tape, followed by filling with polyurethane, either by extrusion through a die preheated ingot of aluminum alloy (the so-obtained extruded profile ruggedized). Profiles of the roller rolling very light (belt thickness of 0.3 - 0.5 mm), it allows you to use cheaper types of control shutters, in addition, they have excellent sound and heat insulation. Extruded inferior to the insulating properties of foam-filled profiles, but far surpass them in strength characteristics and resistance to cracking. Steel sections covered with a special polymer coating that is extremely resistant to external impacts and abrasion. Aluminium profiles are anodized and then coated with several layers of powder paint and varnish. Such a method of coating also provides high resistance leaf shutters to various external factors, therefore, the main purpose of shutters is to protect against the penetration of the room. For this task they are coping better than the traditional grids in Russia or hinged shutters. Of course, you can hack and the first and second, and third, having a special tool or a simple metal scrap. And for the specialist (an attacker) would not be any difference in time.

Protective shutters are raised and lowered by a mechanical or electrical control. Mechanical control is available in four main types (tape management, gearbox, pedals and tubular spring). All types of mechanical control are not expensive, but they have weight restrictions lifted leaf shutters (usually up to 35 kg). For lifting the shutters used physical force of man, and each design is managed separately. All these minuses are missing, if you install the shutters with electric. Motors brand renowned French company «Somfy» well-proven in the Russian context.
