What to look for while buying Roller Shutters?

When making the decision to purchase roller shutters it is important to consider the quality of the product and service that will be offered throughout the lifespan of your roller shutter as roller shutters are permanently fixed once installed and, being custom made cannot be used elsewhere. The first thing to consider should be how responsive the company is to your calls, emails & chats and how fast you can get your quote as this will give you a good indication of how the business operates, if they are slow to react it will generally mean that they don’t have the right systems in place or they don’t care.

More and more people have started using roller shutters for their homes and shopfronts as shutters add that ‘WOW’ factor to the property with all their hues.

One can easily satisfy their aesthetic senses by installing sleek and colourful roller shutters on their property.

But does the right colour really matter?

Choosing the roller shutters with the right colour plays an important role in adding to the overall aesthetics of the property.

When it comes to your home, colours give your home a unique charm by enhancing its appeal and modernizing the overall look. Similarly, the right colour is the perfect way to beautify a shopfront and make your business stand out in the crowd. Ultimate Shutter manufactures and installs the best Commercial Roller Shutters in Sydney and across Australia.

So, do not underestimate the importance of selecting a roller shutter colour that complements your exterior style.

And now that you know why it really matters to have the right colour of shutters added to your property, there’s one important question to be answered…

How does one choose the right colour?

Ultimate Shutter, the manufacturer of the best Roller Shutters in Perth, WA and all of Australia will help you get started on choosing the right colour for your roller shutters. So take notes because we have some tips from the experts!

Complement your existing colour scheme

Once you decide to get roller shutters for your property, choose a roller shutter colour that coordinates with the colour theme of your home or Shopfront. For instance, pure white works well with navy blue, while beige looks lovely with olive green. You can match the roller shutter colour with the colour of the window frame, façade of the property or even the wider surroundings than just the property itself, so that it creates a more cohesive scheme across the facade. Remember it doesn’t have to match the colour of the walls and window frames, rather work with the colours of these other parts.

If you would rather play safe with white, black or beige colour, try choosing a roller shutter with one or two slats in a contrasting or complementary colour, for just that little bit of oomph. This two-tone approach, with one base and one dramatic colour, can also help liven up your décor. In the end, it’s all about your taste and your aesthetic.

Look at your neighbours

While choosing the colour for your roller shutters, you need to be able to visualize how the property will look from the outside, with shutters of that colour. And one way to do is by keeping your eyes open and looking at how other properties with roller shutters in that colour look.

If your home or shopfront is located in an area where other properties are designed in a similar architectural style, take a hike! Walk down the lane and see which roller shutter colours have been selected for which kind of property. Take note of what works and what doesn’t. Prepare to be surprised, as on this short excursion, you might even spot a colour that you never imagined would work well for your property.

If you are someone who is more screen-friendly, give our roller shutter colour selector a go! This tool will let you pick your wall construction type and choose different colours for all the different parts of the roller shutter such as the pelmet, slats, guides and bottom.
