Roller shutter installation is a task for experts. Shutters provide privacy and light protection. Especially on the south side of a house, they are important everyday helpers.
So-called external roller shutters can be mounted either above the window frame on the wall or inside the frame on the window sash. To avoid mistakes, professional support is recommended. If you have some DIY experience, self-installation is possible.
