Somfy Motors

Rolling Shutters can be installed on the outside or inside surface of the building or can be 'built-in". Be sure to provide the right measurements. Caribbean Awning Production Company Ltd cannot be held responsible for the incorrect measurements.

For recess Installation

Measure your width of the opening
Measure the height of the opening

When mounting shutters on the inside opening (recess) this is your Finished Size

For Surface Installation

Measure your width of the opening and add 8" to the opening width
Measure your height of the opening and add 13" to the height for a door or large opening and 10" for a window opening

When mounting on the outside of the opening (surface) this is your Finished Size

Note:
We must determine your Finished Size to avoid shutter size confusion.
In hurricane zones you may need a storm bar which is the width of the shutter. Ask for pricing.
Indicate type of opening (window or door) type of surface (wood or concrete)

Considerations

No custom shapes such as arches and angles
Require flat leveled surfaces for installation
Requires additional head space above opening for the hood
Exterior lights, plumbing pipes, air condition pipes, decorative banding around windows and doors, protruding door knobs should be considered when evaluating installations
Architects should include these shutters as a “built-in”
What side you require the motor installed – consider the side closest to your electrical outlet
Roll Up shutters have the highest initial cost but is practical, effective and easy to handle
