Shutter World supplies and installs bulletresistant roller shutters across Sydney. The Ultimate Shutter is a heavy-duty, electrically operated roller shutter for homes and businesses that want added protection at windows and doors. It keeps the slimline profile of our standard roller shutters and comes in three standard colours. In a demonstration, it stopped rounds fired from 5 metres, including a 9mm handgun, a .38 Special factory round, and a .22 calibre high-velocity round. This page covers what the Ultimate Shutter is, what it stopped in testing, how it operates, and where it is used.
The Ultimate Shutter is Shutter World’s bulletresistant roller shutter, an ultra heavy-duty unit made for window and door openings. It is electrically operated, comes in three standard colours, and keeps the slimline profile of our standard roller shutters, so it adds protection without a bulky appearance.

The Ultimate Shutter works as a standard roller shutter day to day and adds security when closed. Like the rest of Shutter World’s roller shutter range, it reduces external noise and heat transfer through the glass, which helps with cooling.
It suits homes and businesses that want added protection at street-facing windows and doors. For openings that do not need this level of build, our domestic roller shutters and commercial roller shutters cover standard security and privacy. For fire-prone areas, see our bushfire shutters.
In a Shutter World demonstration, the Ultimate Shutter stopped a 9mm handgun round, a .38 Special factory round, and a .22 calibre high-velocity round, each fired from 5 metres. Resistance depends on the calibre, the ammunition type, and the firing distance, so performance against other rounds is not implied.
Yes. The Ultimate Shutter operates as a standard roller shutter when not needed for protection. Closed, it reduces noise and heat transfer through the glass and adds security at the window or door.
The Ultimate Shutter is electrically operated. Optional manual override and battery backup are available so the shutter still works during a power outage.
