At-window-head mounted roller shutters

Window head mounted roller shutters are a highly aesthetic and modern solution ideal for new builds and comprehensive renovations. They guarantee an excellent appearance, provide outstanding thermal and acoustic insulation, and offer exceptional functionality for daily use. Discover how these advanced systems can enhance the comfort and safety of your home.

Why choose built-in roller shutters?

Built-in roller shutters can be seamlessly installed during the construction phase, when modernizing a building (prior to applying exterior insulation), or when replacing windows. It is important to note that they require a specially prepared recess in the lintel for the roller shutter cassette.

This structural approach ensures the highest level of aesthetics, as the cassette becomes completely invisible from the outside, perfectly blending with the building's facade. Only the lower cassette wall remains accessible from the outside, allowing for easy and non-invasive maintenance. Thanks to the robust concealed cassette and strong guides, this system significantly enhances home security, making it a highly desirable choice for modern architecture.

Types of slats in roller shutters above window

When configuring roller shutters above window, you have the flexibility to choose between two main types of slats: durable aluminium or lightweight PVC.

Aluminium roller shutter slats

Aluminium slats are renowned as ecologically clean products. The insulating polyurethane foam filling is entirely free of CFC compounds, and the high-quality paints used during production contain no cadmium. They are characterized by excellent colour fastness and superior abrasion resistance. Furthermore, they withstand harsh weathering over decades without losing their structural integrity.

PVC slats in an integrated roller shutter system

A distinguishing feature of high-grade plastic slats is their remarkably slim profile, reduced height, and low overall weight. The premium materials used in their manufacturing ensure high resistance to daily wear and mechanical abrasion.

An integrated roller shutter system offers a multitude of benefits for any modern property:

• outstanding thermal insulation that significantly lowers heating and cooling costs
• enhanced acoustic protection against bothersome external noise
• increased privacy and a solid physical barrier against break-ins
• seamless visual integration with the building's exterior

These core advantages make top-mounted models one of the most frequently selected and reliable sun protection systems on the market today.

Colours, control, and automation

A comprehensive range of colours and premium veneers featuring various finish structures, alongside the option for customized RAL powder coating, allows you to perfectly match the colour of your concealed roller shutter to your architectural vision.

When it comes to operation, window head mounted roller shutters can be controlled manually, via remote control, a wall-mounted switch, or directly from a smartphone app. While basic manual operation (using a tape, cord, or crank) is available, automatic control is far more convenient—especially when managing multiple modern roller shutters throughout the house.

The most significant advantage of electric control is the ability to connect intelligent weather sensors. These sensors will automatically raise or lower the blinds in response to strong wind or intense sunshine. Moreover, by incorporating them into a smart home system, your shutters can operate automatically according to personalized usage scenarios.
