Window shutters have been a familiar part of architecture for centuries. While they once served primarily as protection from the weather, today they are popular for both practical and aesthetic reasons. Shutters Inc. manufactures window shutters in all shapes, sizes and materials. Under the guise of "convenience serves man," window shutters are even available with electric operation.
More and more technology is being used in buildings, Jelmer Flipse of Shutters Inc. rightly states. "Everything goes with the push of a button these days. We go along with that with our electrically operated window shutters. We combine aesthetics and functionality with the practical advantages of electric operation." Shutters Inc. provides both pivoting and sliding shutters with automatic controls, where the shutters open or close with a simple push of a button - via remote or wall control.
One of the most valued features of window shutters is their ability to block sunlight. "On hot summer days, closed shutters keep the inside pleasantly cool. In winter, they can actually help keep the heat in, especially on older windows that do not insulate as well," Flipse explains. "This makes window shutters an energy-saving solution that contributes to a building's comfort. With electric operation, we take that comfort to an even higher level, because it hardly requires any effort to open or close the shutters." Window shutters up to 80 centimeters wide can be automated perfectly, according to Flipse. "That means we can 'fill' a 160-centimeter-wide window frame just fine with an electric window shutter."
The convenience of electric operation is especially popular with aluminum window shutters, according to Flipse. "A building user does not have to worry about window shutters in this durable material. They are low maintenance and virtually settlement-free. That makes it a very rewarding product. Those who choose aluminum window shutters benefit not only from the strength and durability of the material, but also from its versatility in finishing. It is particularly suitable for different styles and applications, because of a paint finish in virtually any color, also available in matte, gloss or textured. A wood look is also possible for those who want to combine the charm of wood with the convenience of aluminum."
Shutters Inc. manufactures window shutters in wood, plastic and aluminum. "We have an extensive standard assortment, but our dealers are happy to think along with us in specific solutions or deviating situations." In fact, Shutters Inc. works with a selected dealer network because of the high quality they strive for. "After all, our product is an eye-catcher on the facade." Shutters Inc. encourages companies interested in a dealership to get in touch. "We are still looking for fine partners to further expand our network in the Netherlands and Belgium and promote the convenience of (power-operated) window shutters."
