	Security Shutters for Windows and Doors Security door and window shutters can be added to any exterior face of any building to provide very real physical protection from crime and vandalism. The added advantage can be to have control of the sunlight to control the temperature in the room. This office building has brown powdercoated Seceuroshield 38 extruded aluminium lath shutters on the windows all electrically operated from controls internally. The hood covers on the majority of security shutters we supply are only 205mm square and with a nice chamfered edge and the right colour choice can actually enhance a building and not make it look ugly and vulnerable. Take note - properly specified security shutters can make a building visually better not worse.
	Security Shutters for Your Home Samson offer some of the very best security shutters in aluminium for your home with either heat and insulation as the main usage or real security from potential intruders using either extruded aluminium or steel security shutters with varying slat sizes and degrees of security offered. We can provide electric or manual operated roller security shutters with options on integration into your home automation system for complete and effortless control. All shutters are made to measure for the optimum fit and maximum security. The shutters can be installed outside or inside your windows or doorways.
	Internal Security and Fire Protection Internal security shutters can be used to secure stock rooms or any room or area requiring restricted access and higher security. Samson can also provide fire rated roller shutters and fire curtains to close automatically,  either triggered by electric impulse or heat sensors and when a fire or smoke detector is activated Fire rated roller shutters are used mainly in kitchen serving hatches, high risk manufacturing plants and warehouse facilities and public buildings.
	Built In Security Shutters Security shutters can be built into the window and door apertures at design stage if required to provide a very neat finish externally. The curtain roll, and all the operating mechanism is built into the supporting lintel area and then completely hidden by the fabric of the building when the shutter is opened fully. Control of any security shutter can be manual or electric operation up to a certain size beyond which electric operation is required as standard due to weight and balancing. Many control methods can be used such as external keyswitch, digital keypads, timer units, remote control, finger readers and so on.
	Security Shutters with Style and Colours Certain security shutters can be powdercoated to any RAL or BS colour to match surrounding colour schemes as demonstrated in this school picture to the left. Careful consideration to colour schemes can actually enhance a building rather than specifying a standard galvanised finish which can look fairly shabby after a short period of weathering. Samson offers several shutters which can be powdercoated to specific  RAL or BS colours and most have a range of standard colours such as white, brown, black or cream to choose from for fast delivery times.
	Security Shutters with Vision Slats Many local authorities require security shutters to be fitted with a certain amount of vision available. This is achieved by punching sections of the shutter lath either with or without clear acrylic inserts as well as small pin holes in the lath (perforated shutters). A balance in the security and the requirement for vision either for light or in the case of shop fronts for displaying goods is a careful one and the lath should be sufficiently strong to enable a large section to be cut out without reducing the overall strength of the shutter. The Seceurovision 38, 75, 800 and 900 are all security shutters that can achieve this requirement for vision or light very successfully whilst offering great security.
	Security Shutters for Retail Shops Perforated sections of single skin galvanised steel lath are also a good way of achieving light and vision without large cut out sections. Small pin holes in the lath give very effective vision through the curtain. With light behind the shutter during the night a good level of detail is available to be seen through the closed shutter curtain. This method of vision means very little of the shutter lath strength is lost and the sizes achievable are still sufficient for larger windows and doorways.
	Bar and Servery Security Shutters The effective protection of high value stock in bars, restaurants, shops and surgeries is fairly essential. The Seceuroshield 38 and 3801 insurance approved shutters provide very high levels of security in a neat, compact, attractive product capable of a multitude of uses and sizes, manual or electrically operated. Punched slatsand perforated options are also available for maximum vision when closed with clear polycarbonate insert options if required. Suitable for internal or external applications this is one of the most popular security shutter models sold by Samson for many projects around the UK.

          Security Window Shutter Terminology



When you measure and specify a security window shutter the overall width and height measurements are the key factors for pricing and ordering. The guides at the sides and the box cover with the roll of the curtain in it will vary in size depending on the shutter model and also the sizes. Obviously a taller shutter may require a larger overall size of hood cover (headroom) as the curtian is physically larger when rolled up.
Most security shutters are fitted externaly to protect the door or window from outside completely but they can also be fitted internally and also inbetween the reveals rather than to the face of the opening.
