Falling in love with Blockhouse Shutters – Part One

Mon, 16 Mar 2020


When Lisa Raleigh, a health/fitness guru and blogger, moved into her new home she was continuously looking for new ways to improve on the décor and she was always looking for beautiful pieces of furniture that would add functionality and improve her quality of life.

Here’s her story:

Why I love Blockhouse Security Shutters.

At least I ticked a major to-do off my list recently by installing the ultimate Blockhouse Security Shutters all around my lounge and outdoor patio area. This is one of those massive steps we’re required to take in a new home, but the stage-fright is real when it comes to pulling the trigger. It’s a big investment after all, and once it’s done, it’s DONE.

The Blockhouse Security Shutters I went with are nothing short of amazing. I knew I wanted shutters rather than blinds because I love the clean look, the simple open and shut mechanism, and the durable material. But I’d previously had wooden ones in my Durban home, and wasn’t sure what to expect with these. Well, all I can say is I’m hooked! These aluminium shutters are incredible.

They’re beautiful.

Yup, I’m just going to say it: in my house, function follows form. The number ONE reason I went with this brand is because of how pretty these shutters are.

They double up as security.

Luckily for me, these shutters have a lot more going for them than just looks. Unlike blinds or shades – or even less tough shutters – the Blockhouse ones are durable too. That means my solution for managing light in my house now serves as my security measure too. These shutters are also accepted as a security barrier by most insurance companies – make sure to check with yours. They sure beat ugly burglar bars.”
