Sliding shutters
Tradition meets modernity
The aluminium sliding shutter has become a fixed option in modern architecture. It is the ideal solution, particularly for new constructions with large window surfaces. It occupies an expansive area in the facade making them a dominant feature of the overall look while keeping out excessive sunlight and prying eyes.
Our sliding shutter comes in a wide selection of shapes and colours and meets the highest standards when it comes to aesthetics and functionality. This makes it ideal for balconies, pergolas and loggias.
It is comfortable to use, easy to look after and virtually maintenance-free.
Variations
Movable slats
Movable slats
The sliding shutter with movable slats has at least one slat frame with free-moving slats. Irrespective of this, the other slat frames can be closed with aluminium panels (plain or with grooves running lengthwise or crosswise). Two or more slat frames are separated by a frieze running lengthwise or horizontally. The slats are moved by a visible or concealed control rod.
Fixed slats
Fixed slats
The sliding shutter with fixed slats has at least one slat frame that does not move. Irrespective of this, the other slat frames can be closed with aluminium panels (plain or with grooves running lengthwise or crosswise). Two or more slat frames are separated by a frieze running lengthwise or horizontally.
Closed slats
Closed slats
The closed model only consists of closed fillings that are made of either elements that look like slats or from aluminium panels. The way the surface area is divided up depends on how many slat frames there are. There are also cross and batten or Z bar panels as additional design elements.
Special shapes
Special shapes
If you want to customize your sliding shutters even further, opt for a special shape. Whether expanded metal, real wood slats, or fabric fillings—there are no limits to your wishes.
Unique design options for greater individuality
The sliding shutter does not just play a functional role. In addition to providing sun, glare and sight protection with its numerous design options, it also contributes significantly to creating individual aesthetics. The sliding shutter is a first-class decorative element that can be used in almost any kind of building style and can be produced in accordance with your wishes in terms of its shape, colour and even the filling.

2. Mountings for upper and lower guides
The rails can be installed either directly under the ceiling or on the wall with a support profile. The rails are made from aluminium profiles and the rollers are plastic. This combination of materials realises a quiet operation of the shutters. The shutters can be guided downwards either selectively or continuously.

3. Latches and locks
Once it is pulled shut, the sliding shutter can be locked in a variety of ways. Not only does it provide sight protection and shading, it also deters burglars.

4. Sound insulation
Silencio soundproof sliding shutters not only protect your living space from unwanted glances, but also from noise: they can reduce noise levels by over 10 dB, even when windows are tilted open. This makes Silencio a comparatively inexpensive alternative to special soundproof windows – and without the need for costly renovation work.
5. Colours
Endlessly versatile
The sliding shutter is available in a wide range of different colours, such as antique finish and wood decor, as well as matt or silk gloss finishes. The powder-coated surfaces are impact resistant and scratch-resistant, which ensure they remain colourfast for an extremely long time and do not need to be repainted. The special pre-treatment Ocean Line plus is suitable for protecting the product against filiform corrosion in extreme conditions, such as those found by the sea, in swimming pools or in the chemical industry.
6. Finishes
The finishes, which are based directly on their natural models, appear astonishingly authentic. Our finishes mirror the natural beauty of real wood, stone or rust, yet remain as durable as aluminium.
7. Types of drive
The electric folding sliding shutter can be controlled individually or in groups at the touch of a button or remotely. On request, it can also be integrated into the home automation system (Smart Home). The sliding shutter can also be motorized with solar power if desired.
