Rollershutters for Bushfires from Rollashield


Australian Standards (AS 3959-1999), The Rural Fire Services and local Fire Authorities have 3 building levels that require Aluminium Shutters. Rollashield recommends using either Slimline, Forceshield or Aero90 Shutters for Level 1 (16kW) and Level 2 (21kW). For Level 3 (31kW) we recommend the heavier gauged extruded Forceshield and Aero90 shutters.

Apart from unsealed eaves, the most common way that a house is lost to bushfire is that heat causes the windows to explode or that enough heat is radiated and magnified through the glass to cause curtains to burst into flames. Radiant heat can be reduced by 90% by fitting Aero90 Plantation Louvre Shutters and Forceshield Roller Shutters helping to ensure that windows and other glass areas do not shatter and therefore preventing flames from entering the building. Also by reducing the heat gain through the glass, curtains and other flammable internal fittings are protected against ignition from the external heat.

Wind turbulence will often carry debris that will shatter windows long before a fire arrives. Rollashield's Aero90 Plantation Shutters and Forceshield Roller Shutters prevent the debris from damaging the glass and therefore the flames entering the building.
