"When looking for a garage door, individuals initially think of a sectional or overhead door," observes CEO Thibaut Suys of BUILDING Shutter Systems. "But the roller shutter door does not have to be at all inferior to its better-known brothers!"
"While roller shutters maintain their position in the market, roller shutters are on the rise," Suys continued. "When building or remodeling, people think about how to make optimal use of the space in their homes. Rolling gates can then play an important role. After all, with a roller gate, no ceiling space is lost and enough storage space remains free to hang a surfboard, ladder or bicycle, for example."

The BP77 profile combines good coiling with extra strength and can cover up to a door area of 15 m2.
BUILDING Shutter Systems uses the BP77 slat as standard for the Gararol® rolling gates. The use of this lamella keeps the case size down. "The BP77 slat combines good coiling with extra strength and can accommodate up to 15 m2 surface," Suys said. "Because roller gates consist of individual slats, damage to the gate can be repaired easily and inexpensively by simply renewing the damaged profiles. With a sectional or a tilt gate, the cost can quickly add up if expensive panels need to be replaced."
Just like the roller shutter armors, BUILDING Shutter Systems can also powder-coat the roller shutter curtains in any desired color. This allows the end-user to choose a uniform color for their windows, shutters, screens AND roller shutter door.
"Roller shutters are still nowhere near as present as roller shutters, but individuals are slowly becoming more aware of the advantages of a roller shutter over a sectional or tilt-up door," Suys concludes. "At BUILDING Shutter Systems, we are curious to see if the upward trend will continue. We are already convinced!"
