Is a roller shutter appropriate for large glazing? Surely, yes. However, before ordering and installing them, there are a few aspects to consider: the type of roller shutter, what kind of frame is in the windows it will be installed on. And above all, it is crucial to take into account the technical specifications and possibilities of the roller shutter of a given manufacturer. Two main parameters to be considered - the maximum width of the roller shutter and the maximum surface area of the roller shutter - determine the installation options of the roller shutter for the given profile.
Protection against overheating
The purpose of large glazings is to connect the interior with the outside in order to bring lightness and freshness into the house. Regrettably, in summer, rooms are prone to overheating - especially those with XXL glazing and those on the south side of buildings. Controlling the heat and light entering the home affects living comfort. A correctly selected window blind should help to regulate the flow of daylight into rooms and have an impact on the temperature inside the building. And when the heat is oppressive, external accessories that stop the sun's rays from shining through the glass are the best choice.
