Rolling Shutter technology is a product of European design. Originated by a glider manufacturer in 1967 located near Frankfurt, Germany, its owners and developers, Willi and Walter Schneider, using their knowledge of aerospace engineering principles, developed the Rolling Sutters. Thereafter, this technology came to the United States and has since become the most widely recognized and used form of security against the criminal elements, while adding a layer of window protection and insulation against the weather.
Enviro Rolling Shutters, today, offer innovative solutions for window and door applications. Whether mounted on the exterior or interior, Enviro Rolling Shutters offer: Security, Insulation, Sun Control, Noise Reduction, Window Protection, and Storm Protection.

Sun-safe shutters are significantly better than traditional roll down sun screens or window screens which provide no security. Sun-safe shutters stop up to 85% of the sun's harmful rays-slashing energy bills by as much as 50% while reducing furniture and carpet fading / discoloration. Sun-safe shutters supplement burglar monitoring service by deterring break-ins and its patented "End Retention" slat technology prevents shutters from being pulled or forced out of sidetracks. Available in seven attractive colors, sun-safe shutters are perfect protection for large window walls, porches and patio doors. They can be integrated into walls or soffits in new construction, or attractive box housing can be easily attached later. |
Enviro Rolling Shutters roll up into the shutter housing which can be installed in several fashions. In addition to these installations, during construction or remodeling, installation of the Enviro Rolling Shutters into the wall provides an alternative to the soffit style mount.

ENERGY SAVINGS
We are living in a world today full of rising energy costs. While there is not much we can do to stop our energy companies from raising these costs, we can most certainly do something about how much energy we use in our homes and businesses. The reduction of energy usage is, in the end, of economic impact.
In addition to the reduction of energy consumption and thus reducing the economic impact, is the more personal desire to live more comfortably. For some people, this can be of more importance than the economic impact of rising energy costs.
Enviro Rolling Shutters can save you an estimated 50% on your year round cooling and heating costs, while making your home more climatically comfortable. Depending upon where you live, your need for comfort may range from wanting to stay cooler in the more southerly climates, to keeping warm in the northerly climates.
The United States Department of Energy reports that in HOT CLIMATES the concern is to control heat gain by keeping solar energy (the sun's ultraviolet and infrared transmission) from reaching the window and window frame. While in COLD CLIMATES it is a two-fold concern - to keep the warmth from exiting the dwelling, while also preventing the window and window frame from getting cold and allowing that cold to enter the dwelling.
This sentiment is often echoed by local State's Office of Energy, who have been reported to support the placement of Rolling Shutters on homes and businesses to reduce energy usage and costs. For instance, in Las Vegas, Nevada, not only has the Nevada Power Companies voiced it's opinion that Rolling Shutters reduces energy usage and thus customer's costs; but the Nevada Legislature has likewise seen the need for Rolling Shutters and has passed legislation to prevent Homeowners Associations from stopping homeowners from installing Rolling Shutters on their homes and businesses.
The HOT temperate climates such as Las Vegas, Nevada, solar energy radiating from the window and window frame, into the home, have been measured at 85 degrees - in the shade, to 120 degees - where the sun is reaching the window and frame. In either of these cases, that is a lot of heat entering your home or business. While in COLD climates temperatures of lower than 20 degrees have been recorded entering the dwelling through the window and window frames.
Whichever is your driving need or desire, the only common-sense solution to the problem is installing Enviro Security Rolling Shutters.

OUR SECURITY ROLLING SHUTTER PRODUCTS
Enviro Rolling Shutters offers many styles and colors of Rolling Shutters and Accessories.
Our Rolling Shutters are available in a lightweight and extremely strong high grade 40mm. or 55mm aluminum, injected with polyurethane (CVC-free) high density foam insulation. They roll up and down in a special aluminum channel that is mounted to the house frame around the window. This construction allows the Enviroblind rolling Shutters to double the efficiency of the window.
The aluminum shutters are then coated with a fade resistent, non-corosive, abrasion resistent coating offering total protection from extreme weather conditions. They are available in four colors: Brown, Beige, Cream, and White. These shutter slats are notably found in residential uses.
Enviroblind of Nevada offers a line of Rolling Shutter accessories, such as manually operated "winder" and "strap" controls; or 110 volt units with "toggle" or "paddle", "decora", or "remote" controls; or the unique "SmartDrive" control. These controls are designed to bring freedom to every home, taking security and comfort to a new level, making it easier to use your Enviroblind Rolling Shutters.
The "winder" control consists of a slender box-shaped unit that mounts to your wall and allows for the winder handle to move the shutter up and down depending upon the direction of the turn of the handle. It is easily concealable behind drapes in a home or business.
The "strap" control consists of a slender unit that mounts to your wall and swivels away from the wall approximately 5". It is also easily concealable behind drapes in a home or business.
The "toggle" and "paddle"control switchs are devices that look like a standard light switch. However, it holds a middle position which is the "off" position. When you push the switch upward, the shutter likewise moves the same direction. When you push the switch down, again, the shutter follows in the same direction. When pressure is released from the switch, it automatically springs back to its neutral "off" position.
The "decora" control is a wireless device that mounts in the wall, appearing as a wallplate-style control. This device cobines high-performance technology with tastful and practical features. This control blends naturally with any decor, and uses a battery that will last up to 25 years based on 4-6 presses a day. The "decora" control comes in a 1-channel (for controlling one shutter), or a 5-channel (to control up to 5 rolling shutters). lThis control is joined with the RTS Timer, a battery poweredwireless digital timer that will automatically deploy your Enviroblind Rolling Shutters based on a pre-set time of day or randomly to give the impression of an occupied home.
The "remote" controls are hand-held devices, which likewise come in 1-channel (for controling one shutter), or a 5-channel (for controlling up to 5 rolling shutters). This new collection of Rolling Shutter controls allows for remote response from up to 65 feet from the Shutter(s). This control also has a "my favorite" memory, allowing for you to program a favorite position where you desire your Enviroblind Rolling Shutter to move to, then with the push of a button your Enviroblind Rolling Shutter will respond to that programmed position.
The "SmartDrive" control allows you to purchase a motorized feature for your Enviroblind Rolling Shutters, at the fraction of the cost of other forms of motorized controls. This control operates using a low-voltage re-chargable battery system, which does not require the normal expensive wiring of other motorized controls. The "SmartDrive" control wallplate mounts to the interior wall next to the window that is covered by the Enviroblind Rolling Shutter that it controls. When you desire to use that Rolling Shutter, you simply place the "SmartDrive" controller into the wallplate pocket and push the button. The removability of the "SmartDrive" controller allows you to secure that window's Rolling Shutter in place, and it cannot be moved without the controller being placed back into the wallplate pocket. This device is further cost effective as you only need one "SmartDrive" controller to operate multiple Rolling Shutters that are designed with the "SmartDrive" system.
Enviroblind of Nevada offers a full line of "safety" features that are designed to open your 110 volt controlled Rolling Shutters in a case of emergency or power outtage.
