What is the difference between external blinds and external roller shutters?

External blinds consist of individual slats that can be tilted in various directions. You can thereby regulate the incoming light, protect against the sun´s rays while ventilating at the same time. Slats tilted to the horizontal position do not block your view of the outdoors.

External roller shutters area also made from slats, which are, however, connected to create a continuous vertical plate. When the roller shutters are pulled down they create absolute darkness in the room and they can´t be tilted. If you wish to let light into the room, you can lower them just halfway down the window.
