Why roller shutters are the best value for money window covering

Your home or business is your biggest investment. And after spending a huge chunk of your savings on your house, it’s understandable that you only want the best – whether it’s the best building materials, landscaping or even window coverings. But when it comes to window coverings, which offers the most value for your hard-earned money?

Roller shutters are robust and reliable and offer many more benefits than other window coverings. They sit external to the window and add an extra layer of protection to your windows. At CW Products, we care about your investments as though they were ours. As your trusted roller shutter expert, we consistently offer competitive pricing and deliver more added value than any other quality shutter supplier in the market.

So why are roller shutters the best value for money window covering in Australia? Read on to find out.

How much do roller shutters cost?

When it comes to the price of roller shutters, there is no one-size-fits-all. At CW Products, every roller shutter is specially and uniquely designed and manufactured for your home or business. So the cost of your shutter will depend on a few different factors.

Size

The bigger the roller shutter, the more it will cost. That’s because there’s more materials needed, heavier-duty components required and more manufacturing time. Not to mention a longer, more involved installation process. If the shutter is too big, it will require extra manpower and tools to install it – and that adds up.

Style

The type and style of shutter you choose will also impact the amount you will pay. For example, a domestic roller shutter has different requirements than a commercial shutter, which is often reflected in the final price. 

Aesthetics play a role in the cost of your shutter as well. A classic shutter for a traditional home uses different materials than a more robust commercial or specialty shutter – all of which can affect the price. 

Control

Are you considering getting a simple manual roller shutter or a motorised one with all the bells and whistles? Keep in mind that there’s a price difference between the two.

Motorised roller shutters also have a wide range of options when it comes to how you control them. You can opt for a traditional switch on the wall, remote control or even an app on your smartphone. Which option you choose will increase that price tag.

Why are roller shutters the best value for money?

Simply put, roller shutters are the best value for money window covering solutions available on the Australian market. Why? Because they provide many features and benefits that other window coverings don’t. Here’s our top benefits of roller shutters.

They give you complete light control 

Roller blinds, curtains and other window coverings all have one thing in common – they don’t completely block out the light. All of them will allow some light to leak in, whether through the gaps between the covering and the wall or through the light-filtering fabric.

When fully closed, roller shutters completely block out the light, leaving your room in total darkness. This is perfect for night shift workers or young families with fussy babies. And when you want to fill your space with light again, all you need to do is open your shutters – whether by hand or by a touch of a button.

They reduce outside noise

Whether it’s your home or business, you deserve a place of peace and quiet. Roller shutters play a significant role in reducing external noise coming into your space. Adding an aluminium barrier over your windows interrupts noise vibrations in the air caused by any outside commotion – such as road works, cars or loud neighbours. 

And while they won’t completely soundproof your home, shutters can reduce all outside sound by up to 50%, ensuring a more peaceful and comfortable experience within your home or business. 

They increase the value of your home

Manual or electric roller shutters are an easy and effective way of boosting the value of your home. That’s because they offer so much more than just a window fitting – they provide a range of benefits that inevitably puts your house into a higher price bracket. They also look great and increase your home’s curb appeal.

And here’s our hot tip: We recommend choosing roller shutter colours that complement the style of your home or building. We offer a broad collection of trendy colours to give you more choices to complement your space. Our high-quality painted finish also ensures that your roller shutters are protected from the outside elements – so you never need to worry about your shutters looking tired under the harsh Australian sun.

They insulate your home and reduce energy costs
