The Vertical Interlocking Blade system gives stability and strength even in the worst possible weather conditions. Each Blade interlocks into the next with a sure locking design and are made from Heavy Duty Extruded Aluminum.
All hardware is Xylan coated to prevent rust and oxidation. Each Accordion shutter is made with Engineered Wheel Carriage assemblies in the top. These wheel carriages utilize silicone-impregnated wheels for easy gliding within the top mounted extruded aluminum tracks. This makes even very large shutters easy to open and close. The Accordion Shutter system also comes with a 5-point locking system that gives maximum security to the covered opening.
The key lock uses a special numbered key unique to each shutter.
Vertical Locking pins are also engaged into the tracks for security and
rigidity when the shutter is completely closed.
Accordion shutters are used to enclose entire balconies, to cover sliding
glass door and even cover all rectangular windows. The Alutech United

We offer Window Lites that allow light through the shutter and Mechanically Bent Tracks for odd shaped balconies. The Bent tracks allow the shutters to better fit your balcony layout to maximize valuable deck space or can be used to cover Bay style windows.
