$17K For 22 shutters of less than acceptable quality. Which probably are worth less than $1000.
I got 2 quotes for my outdoor aluminium shutters. 1 from Guardian and the other from Franklin. My husband liked the Franklin product better where as I preferred the Gardian. So sorry I didnt go with my gut feeling. Firstly I went to great lengths to explain to the rep that I wanted a water proof outdoor room.
These shutters were to provide a barrier on 3 sides of our patio. 2 nd . A big outlay for only a 1 year . warranty.. 3 rd. Made in China. 4 th. Cheap and nasty fittings that don’t last the distance. 5. Cost the same as the 100% australian made product mentioned above
My shutters have been installed less than 5 years now and I have purposely waited to offer my review.
My husband is always having to adjust these shutters. They definately do not provide a storm proof barrier. Actually a stiff wind would blow them open. Absolutely rubbish. So do yourself a favour if you want shutters. Go to Gardian where the product is made in Australia, in their plant at Logan.

Approximate cost: $17000
