Pros
- Affordable prices
- Offers shutters that can withstand bushfires
- Manufactures shutters in various colors
Cons
- Doesn’t respond on time to emails
- Sometimes delivers shutters late
Open N’ Shut’s best feature is its affordable factory-direct prices. This applies not only to their roller shutters but also to their security doors, blackout curtains, and screens.
It also helps that you can divide the payment up to 50 months interest-free.
The company manufactures their products, which explains their costs. They also guarantee that what they install is 100% Australian.
I’ve also heard great things from clients regarding the company’s installation team. They are courteous, on time, and transparent with prices.
Their shutters are durable, especially the fire-rated ones certified by The Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation. This makes them great for homes that are near areas prone to bushfires.
Their shutters come in many colors too, making them easy to match with different rooms.
If there’s anything they can improve on, one is that they’ve received complaints for not responding to clients’ emails promptly.
Also, some clients said that they received their shutters late (about 2 weeks from promised date of delivery).

Pros
- Offers many shutter variations (manual, solar-powered, battery-operated, electric, etc.)
- Repairs and provides spare parts for shutters
- Clean and well-fit installations
Cons
- Limited colors offered
- Limited slots for installation
What makes iDeal Roller Shutters especially recommendable is their wide range of shutters. They have manual, solar-powered, battery-operated, and electric shutters.
Some are also connected to a mobile application, making it easy to integrate into a smart home.
Most of their past clients agree that they’re great with custom designs. They easily follow instructions for custom material, color, length, and more.
In addition, the company offers roller shutter repairs and spare parts. For the latter, they have available parts even for units that are 10 years or older.
One client also praised their installer, Hari, for providing a clean and well-fit installation. He also arrived on time and provided the client with information about how to use the automated roller shutter he installed.
That said, one minor downside I’ve seen is that the colors of their roller shutters are limited.
Another downside is that their installation schedules are limited. Some had to wait about a couple of weeks to have their shutters installed after purchasing.

Pros
- More than 30 years of experience
- Manufactures roller shutters with various designs and mechanisms
- Has worked with many clients both commercial and residential
- Long warranty period (up to 5 years)
Cons
- Motorized roller shutters do not last long
- Takes a while to provide dates of appointment for installation
Classic Roller Shutters & Blinds is one of the longest-running roller shutters providers in Adelaide, having been around for more than 30 years. They have many regulars who are property managers, which is a good sign of their dependability.
The company’s self-manufactured shutters have various designs and mechanisms, such as bushfire roller shutters that have emergency opening mechanisms and motorized roller shutters. They also have many spare parts even for older models.
It’s great how they’ve worked with many clients both commercial and residential. Their experience shows in how quickly they finish installations (within a couple of hours).
In addition, they provide discounted rates for builder companies. This allows them to supply roller shutters at more affordable prices when obtained alongside other building services from these companies.
The length of the warranty they provide is also quite long, with up to 5 years for the motorized roller shutters.
If there’s anything they should improve, one is in making the motors for their roller shutters last longer. Some clients said it only lasted for a year.
One other downside is that they take a while to provide you with an appointment for installations.

Pros
- 28 years of experience
- Has worked with domestic, commercial, and industrial clients
- Available for repairs 24/7
- Great with handling insurance claims, provides detailed descriptions of repairs
Cons
- A bit pricey for roller shutter repairs
- Designs are mostly minimalist
Shutter Fix has more than 28 years of experience in installing and repairing roller shutters. They can work with domestic, commercial, and industrial clients.
A standout feature of theirs is their 24/7 availability. One client praised how they were able to respond in an hour.
In addition, they were great with handling the insurance claim of the client because they provided a detailed description of the repairs they made.
One of their expertise is in repairing roller shutters, as many past clients commended this service. They are fast (repairs are done within a couple of hours), can fix most issues, and are thorough in providing clients with instructions to prevent further issues.
Their roller shutters come in a great variety of colors (gray, cream, sand, red, green, etc.) and mechanisms (manual, electric, mobile-phone operated, etc.).
However, a downside I found with them is that their fees are a bit pricey for roller shutter repairs. Also, the style of their products is all minimalist, which makes it incompatible with some homes (such as ones with rustic and retro styles).

Pros
- Stylish selections
- Wide area of service, responds fast to requests for emergency repairs
- Great eye for custom designs
- Large selection of colors available
Cons
- Takes a couple of days before responding to emails
- Shop is a bit far from CBD compared to others
Shutters Plus has some of the most stylish roller shutters I’ve seen. The designs of these are compatible with many interior styles, from rustic to minimalist.
They have a wide area of service, from the CBD to Barossa Valley and the Peninsulas. They respond fast to calls for emergency repairs based on what many past clients told us.
Upon reviewing their past work, I noticed their installers have a great eye for custom design. They can easily fit different window types too, such as casement windows and awnings.
The controls of their roller shutters are easy to use, especially the manual ones. It has a winding crank that is easier to use than a strap that needs to be pulled.
They have one of the largest selections of colors, with 15 available.
Now, when it comes to downsides, one is that they took about a couple of days before responding to emails I sent.
Also, their shop in Angle Vale is a bit farther from the CBD compared to other roller shutter shops in Adelaide.
