Roller shutter

A roller shutter, security shutter, coiling door, roller door or sectional overhead door is a specialized type of door or window shutter consisting of multiple horizontal slats, bars, or web systems interconnected through hinges. The mechanism involves lifting the door to open it and lowering it to close. In the case of larger doors, an automated, motorized system may be employed.

This versatile design offers comprehensive protection against various elements, including wind, rain, fire, and theft. When utilized as a shutter in front of windows, it serves as a formidable deterrent against vandalism and thwarting burglary attempts, reinforcing the security of the enclosed space.
