The retractable security shutter of this photo was installed in the apartment’s kitchen, in order to provide for additional security and protection.
Its installation was from the inside because there was no suitable space in the jamb of the window frame. With this specific installation, even if a burglar broke the blind and the glass of the frame – which are located on the outside – the burglar would find himself in the difficult position to face an additional security system, which would definitely prevent him from finally breaking the window frame.
Its use is very easy, it locks and unlocks with a special latch, which locks the structure at two points. It collapses and “folds” on the left of the window frame and when it is fully opened, it occupies 7% of the width of the frame, on the side where the leaves of the shutters are gathered.
This particular construction when closed it does not allow any visual contact from the outside inwards and vice versa. It has a design characterized as very specific and is distinct from the conventional shutters, rolls and blinds commonly used in construction.
