What's the difference between the Domestic Rollershutter and the Security Rollershutter
The security rollershutter has an Extruded Aluminium Slat non-perforated that has been developed as a premium product for security conscious buyers indeed wherever superior strength is required. The AE4O1 series slat represents many technological advantages, and forms the basis for our modern security roller shutter. It's down falls are Price, no Bush Fire Rating, and has less Thermal Property than the Domestic Rollershutter.For this reason the domestic rollershutter is still the most popular rollershutter on the market.

Battery or Electric
Battery Operated Rollershutters:

Electric Operated Rollershutter:
Electrician required, when your electric Rollershutter has been installed there is no ongoing maintenance or costs.
The down side to electric Rollershutters is the cost of the electrician, and they will not work if the power goes out.
The Somfy electric motor can be supplied with a manual override system which uses a crank handle to raise or lower the curtain when the power is out.
Upgrade is $220

Hand wind rollershutters:
Sorry but we don't supply hand wind rollershutters,we have found that they are too difficult for people to install, and would cost about the same price as a battery rollershutter which is just push a button and walk away, and let the controller do the work.
To replace a broken strap on a hand wind shutter can be about $100 - $130
Is the outside concave
The rollershutter slat on the outside is concave. The curved shape of the slat provides minimal roll sizes and optimal lateral strength. Rollershutters started in Europe where they are inbuilt at the time of construction of the dwelling in which the head box is in the cavity of the wall which is opposite to installation in Australia. All Rollershutters in Australia are of European design. Ozroll's machines are from Germany and they supply 80% of the Rollershutter market

Large window
The best solution for a large window spanning up to 4200mm, is to use a Commercial Rollershutter which incorporates a 55mm curved foam filled slat profile with 76 mm x 28 mm heavy duty guide and bottom bar. This is a double walled cavity, curved 55mm profile with PU foam injected during the roll forming process. This process provides economical strength and the insulation qualities while maintaining exceptional performance of the slat. The curved shape of the slat provides minimal roll sizes and optimal lateral strength.

Cable Hole
The best way to drill the Cable Hole for an In-Reveal Rollershutters installation,
is to mark the exact position of the Cable Hole in the reveal, and drill
a 12mm hole 5mm deep.
From this starter hole you can now drill a 10mm hole at about 30-60 degree
angle, this angel determines how close or how far away the controller will
be from the window. This hole then gives you a straight cable hole, from
the reveal to the back of the wall plate. This hole is then covered by the
controller's wall plate which is 75mm wide, which will cover up most misaligned
holes. We have found this to be the best way
This hole will need a 300mm x 10mm masonry drill bit depending on wall thickness
these drill bits generally cost around $15 - $20
The height of the Rollershutters is the over all height which includes
the head box.

Fitting a rollershutter to a corner window
You will need an adjustable corner plate and one of the rollershutters must be 22mm longer (the guides are 22mm thick) this allows you to fix the face of one guide to the edge of the other guide creating a 90dergee angle in which the corner plate is riveted. The other end of the corner plate is then fastened to the window frame, the corner plate is adjustable so it can fit onwall or inreveal fixings. The corner plate comes in the colours of the box and guides the adjustable corner plate is $40How to measuring your corner window for a rollershutter
Measure the depth of the reveal, and then mark this depth on the corner of the sill, on these two points draw a line in pencil on the corner end on of the sill, do this to both sides this will give you the exact inside corner of the guides, the guides are 22mm thick so add 22mm to one rollershutter. Don't forget to add the 55mm to the other end so it can be fixed onwall (for onwall fixing only)
Can Rollershutters Operate on an Angle?
No, rollershutters need the weight of the curtain to fully close and for the curtain to move freely down the guides. If the curtain doesn't move freely the curtain will unwind in the head box.
Battery Controller
On our website go to the products tab on the left hand side, then click on info, when in info click battery shutters this will show you the battery controller and how close it is to the window and the size of the controller. When the controller is fully charged it will open and close your average size rollershutter 30 times before recharging and should last at least 5 years. One controller can operate all the shutter in your house saving you $70 per rollershutter but we suggest at least one controller per room

OZ Roll's Aluminium Axle System carries a Three (3) year Limited Warranty.

I will be mounting in reveal, I guess the guides comes a little longer so they can be cut to size and angle?
No the guides are to the exact size you order, so add 15mm for the angle cut
One window has a 12mm greater width a the top, The shutters are to be installed in reveal, is there a recommended way to pack out this difference or any solutions?
The best solution is to install the rollershutter on the wall not in the reveal or
| 2 aluminium angles 24mmx22mm or 24mmx46mmthe same colour as the box and guide can be supplied. The angle is then fixed to the wall, then fixed to the guide this will take up the 12mm | ![]() |
