External Aluminium Shutters

Simply titling the louvre blades will provide relief but not restrict air flow or when the weather is soggy, external shutters are great to close off completely to protect everything on the opposite side. Excellent addition to create an outdoor room, enclose a verandah or deck, section an area and for screening.
