I feel there has to be a physical lock of some sort which could not be hacked electronically, as in these times where keyless-entry cars are being stolen.
There's a keyed look at the bottom once they lock out electronically, but I feel you, there should be a manual override shutter opener/closer, and a manual lock for extreme safety
Very slick ! Obviously made of metal. Great for vacation homes and wildfire protection. Nothing can stop everything, but this can help slowdown burglars and help with wildfires. It would have been nice to see what it looks like from the outside.
Very popular in the Caribbean, myself being a fabricator. They can be manually operated or motorized. Motorized ones can be operated via a switch or remote control.
Wont do you any good if the house is one of those cardboard, stick built houses. In Florida, the newer houses are built like a fortress. concrete from all sides sometimes even layered with brick veneer. If the owner has a lot of money, they would install impact windows then have these kinds of roller blinds outside for even more protection. But its not thieves or intruders they are worried about but devastating hurricanes. Now those are the SHTF houses.
@@novajtv Nope, that's too easy. They want resistance so as to validate the need for military type gear. And let's not forget, they love to abuse you and your rights.
@@Water-ro8kp Who is hating?.. I don't hate anyone...seriously it's very energy consuming and largely pointless... What an odd thing to say. All I was doing was making an observation, as publlic forums invite one to do, based upon the posted video and the remarks made therein... Maybe I should have used a smiley face at the end to convey my true feelings on the issue? 😐.. May our Karma be proportionate and timely😎
I love that haha it's not mine just some rich person's I worked on but good point... If it was 1/8" though it may be, 1/4" would be .50 proof and think if they thought about that the owner would think about fire too maybe?
The shutters are not meant to be bullet proof, they keep out heat from the sun, storm damage from stuff being blown around and criminals from getting in anytime soon. My house has them, but they are manual crank operated, I can opt later to have them motorized, but I usually find out about bad things ahead of time through a couple of contacts with the local PD. I am retired Sheriff's Office and armed in my house!
@@tray22 your not the only one to have weappons in your houses. We can also have hunting rifles with a license but we dont have so much crazy people and gangs etc... Also here in Croatia since i was born i dont remember a single school shooting. And we are one of the safest countries in the world and the safest to walk alone at night
@@LOVRO.O When I was a kid we didn't have school shootings either. It seems closing mental institutions and encouraging people's delusions causes mass casualty events. When it isn't with a firearm it is with a vehicle or a knife. Crazies will be crazy no matter your country of residence. In the US our right to own firearms isn't just about self defense or hunting. It is our duty as citizens to protect our way of life and constitution even if it is against our own government.
First of all they are probably made out of plastic because most of these are. There are wooden models too. Only really expensive ones are mads of aluminium. I dont know how it is in the states but I'm from germany and over here these shutters are as normal to us as Windows themselves so. I dont know why is is going so crazy about that sure not every shutter is electric here but almost every house thats build in the last 20 to 30 years has these in germany. If someone knows anything. I'd love to hear if thats not common in the US or if it is.
Up until now, I believe america wasn't a violent place such as germany, so there's not much to brag about german houses. Plus americans usually are more about the security alarms, aka noise makers, or using self protection devices such as fire arms versus barricading themselves inside. I guess it's the feeling of claustrophobia plagues them something fierce.
@@allenreeder2021im from Eu too and most of our shutters are made from plastic like the windows and its rare to find some of these made from metal here in Eu in general. Btw im from Croatia
You seriously need to learn how to hold the camera. Got headache just watching this. Thanks for sharing though - I got here right after watching Season 1 of The Purge. Daimn
You might, mine has block walls, 6 shutters, 3 Crimsafe Screens, 3 heavy duty security doors, then if you manage to get in a Springfield 45 ACP with hollow points will be greeting you. However it will take you longer than it will for the Police to be here, they are not far away especially when I mention that I have a firearm to protect myself!!
