Apartments and condos
59% of homes are in multi-unit buildings, where anything on the outside wall needs the building's approval. Interior shutters don't.
Darkness and privacy
Closed, a roller shutter makes a room close to dark, with no view. Wood shutters let you choose: tilt for daylight with privacy, close for more, open the panels for the full view.
Counting the openings in a Manchester home
Roller shutters are usually priced per opening. The middle apartment in a building of five or more units has 3 to 5 windows, plus a balcony door.
