Style Meets Safety

Rami Moorosi discovers why security shutters seal the deal for homeowners

- By Rami Moorosi

Regardless of the type of home, barrier security on windows and doors is always a good idea. “But there is no need (or desire) to have multiple layers of clutter on windows and doors. Purpose-designed

security shutters do an all-in-one job, making them a neat, cost-effective investment in both safety and window treatments or door access control,” says Bronwyn Littley, marketing manager at Trellidor.

TRENDY COLOURS

White remains a firm favourite with many homeowners, but our experts have noticed that other colours are also becoming popular. “People are getting bolder in their choice of colour,” says Briggie Kirchmann, marketing director at Plantation Shutters. “By choosing a charcoal grey or bold deep blue, people are making a statement and adding a ‘wow’ factor to their homes.”

Trellidor, for example, “offers an interesting palette of options that add richness and character to home décor. Sand, aluminium, light brown, black, charcoal and bronze shutters can provide some visual fun in the home”, says Littley.
