Roller shutters for your building

Roller shutters for offices, schools, and healthcare buildings

Roller shutters from De Haan Westerhoff are designed to meet the requirements of commercial buildings, where the sun has free rein on large glass facades. In an office, closed sun protection keeps the heat out. This allows your employees to continue working comfortably, even when outdoor temperatures rise. In schools, classrooms stay cooler and glare on digital boards is reduced. Healthcare institutions opt for darkening and privacy, so residents can sleep during the day while it is light outside. This provides you with exterior roller shutters that align with the daily use of your building.

What are the benefits of roller shutters for your building?

Roller shutters provide your building with three concrete benefits: less heat inside, a lower energy bill, and more tranquility in the rooms. Closed panels block the sun before it hits the glass, meaning the air conditioning doesn’t have to work as hard on summer days and your premises stay cooler. Conversely, exterior roller shutters keep the heat inside during the winter, keeping your heating costs lower. Additionally, closed panels dampen outside noise, making it noticeably quieter inside along a busy road or next to a school playground. You decide how far the screens lower, from fully closed to half open.

Which versions does De Haan Westerhoff supply?

The versions of this exterior sun protection range from insulating to fire-resistant, ensuring there is a suitable variant for every building. Insulating panels block out heat and cold. In an office building, the workspace remains cooler while the energy bill is reduced. Fire-resistant versions are available for buildings with strict safety requirements. In healthcare or along escape routes, these fire-resistant versions are particularly important, as safety is the top priority there. Would you like to automate the operation? We can link your sun protection to a weather station that automatically controls the panels during bright sunlight and strong winds. We measure and install the roller shutters to size, window by window, because no commercial property in healthcare, education, or utility construction is exactly the same.

How do you operate the sun protection automatically?

The roller shutters are operated automatically via a weather station, which controls the shutters on the outside of the window itself. The panels close automatically in bright sunlight. This prevents rooms from heating up, even when no one is there to operate the button. Does the wind pick up? Then the system raises sensitive exterior sun protection in time to prevent damage. You can also set the operation per room or per floor. In a large office building with varying users, this setting works well because not everyone has the same requirements. And if you prefer to be in control yourself? You can adjust the screens via a switch or an app whenever it suits you.
