Custom Roll-Up Shutters in Toronto & the GTA
Security and privacy shutters — custom-built for every opening. Residential and commercial. Manual or motorized. Made in Canada.
Custom Aluminum Roll-Up Security Shutters
Roll-up shutters are the foundation of what we do at Canada Shutter Pros. Each system is custom-measured on-site and fabricated from high-grade extruded aluminum to fit your exact opening — windows, garage doors, patio doors, storefronts, cabanas, boathouses, and more.
When closed, interlocking aluminum slats form a solid, continuous panel over the opening, with insulated foam-filled slat options available. When open, the shutter rolls into a compact housing mounted above the opening — completely out of sight.
With over 500 installations across the GTA and a perfect 5.0 Google rating, we've built shutters for everything from downtown Toronto laneways to lakeside boathouses in Muskoka. Canada Shutter Pros is owner-operated — you work directly with the owners.

How Roll-Up Shutters Work
A roll-up shutter system consists of four main components: the housing box, the barrel (shaft), the slat curtain, and the side guides. Here's how they work together.
Housing Box
A compact aluminum enclosure mounted above the opening. Contains the barrel, motor (if motorized), and the rolled-up slat curtain when the shutter is open. Available in several profiles to match your building's aesthetic.
Barrel & Motor
The slat curtain wraps around a steel barrel inside the housing. Manual systems use a spring-balanced strap, crank rod, or tape winch to raise and lower the curtain. Motorized systems use a quiet tubular motor built into the barrel — operated via wall switch or remote control.
Slat Curtain
Interlocking aluminum slats travel in reinforced side guides and coil around the barrel. When fully closed, the slats interlock to form a continuous panel. Available in solid aluminum or foam-filled (insulated) profiles.
Side Guides
Extruded aluminum channels mounted on each side of the opening. The slat curtain travels within these guides, guiding the curtain as it opens and closes.
Why Roll-Up Shutters?
One custom aluminum system for security, privacy, and light control, with insulated slat options.
Custom-Built to Fit
Every shutter is measured on-site and fabricated to your exact dimensions. No adapters, no gaps, no off-the-shelf guesswork.
Motorized or Manual
Quiet tubular motors with remote or wall switch control. Manual crank, strap, and spring-loaded options also available.
Extruded Aluminum Construction
Extruded aluminum slats with a powder-coated finish. Foam-core (insulated) slat profiles are available.
Interlocking Aluminum Slats
Interlocking aluminum slats form a solid, continuous curtain over the window or door when closed.
Solid or Foam-Filled Slats
Choose solid aluminum or foam-filled slat profiles depending on the opening and how you plan to use it.
Insulated Slat Options
Foam-core slat profiles are available where you want an insulated shutter. We'll show you which profiles are insulated at your consultation.
UV & Light Control
Solid slats darken the room when fully closed. Adjust partially for filtered light.
Solid Shutters
All solid shutters are custom-fabricated from extruded aluminum. Select the duty level that fits your security and application needs — we'll recommend the right profile at your free consultation.
Standard
Consider when: Privacy, shade & insulation are the priority
Designed for residential shading and privacy where a heavier security profile is not the primary concern. Also a good fit for counter pass-through areas where a slim housing is preferred.
Medium-Duty
Consider when: You want a heavier foam-filled slat than the Standard profile
A versatile profile for residential and commercial windows, doors, and counters, with a heavier foam-filled slat than the Standard profile.
Heavy-Duty
Consider when: You want the heaviest slat profile we offer for a high-value opening
Our heaviest reinforced aluminum slat profile. Commonly chosen for cannabis dispensaries, pharmacies, electronics retailers, and medical storage.
Area Doors
Consider when: The opening is too wide or tall for a standard profile
Engineered for garages, laneway doors, and wide commercial entrances. A larger slat profile with a built-in locking mechanism and a self-adjusting rolling carriage for large spans.
Single-Walled (Non-Insulated)
Consider when: You need solid security without insulation, in a single-wall aluminum profile
A thicker single-wall extruded aluminum slat with no foam core. A solid aluminum curtain for applications where thermal insulation isn't needed — commercial storefronts, workshops, and interior partitions. More economical than the double-walled profile.
Double-Walled (Non-Insulated)
Consider when: You want a stiffer slat than single-wall without the cost of a foam-filled slat
A hollow double-wall extruded aluminum slat. Stiffer than single-wall while keeping weight and cost down — ideal for storefronts, workshops, and industrial openings.
Perforated & Grille Options
When airflow, natural light, or storefront visibility matters. Six curtain styles — each closes off the opening while keeping your space open or visually distinctive.
Small
Best for: Windows, storefronts, counter enclosures
Small round punched holes in solid aluminum slats. Allows airflow and a subtle degree of visibility while maintaining a near-solid appearance from the street.
Large
Best for: Commercial storefronts, parking structures
Larger punched holes for maximum airflow and clear interior visibility. Ideal where security cameras and patrol need sightlines into the space after hours.
Clear
Best for: Retail display windows, jewelry, pharmacy
Fully transparent grille links provide complete see-through visibility. Closes off the opening without blocking window displays or interior lighting.
Window
Best for: Retail facades, commercial storefronts
A decorative grille shaped to resemble window panes. Adds architectural character to a storefront while covering the full opening.
Straight
Best for: Modern storefronts, commercial applications
Clean horizontal bar links in a uniform straight pattern. A modern, minimal aesthetic suited to contemporary storefronts and commercial facades.
Brick
Best for: Heritage buildings, traditional storefronts
An offset link pattern that replicates the visual texture of brickwork. Suited to heritage buildings and facades where a traditional material finish is desired.
Operation Types
Choose the operation method that fits your needs and budget. We recommend motorized for daily-use openings and larger shutters.
Remote Control (Motorized)
Quiet tubular motor inside the barrel. Operate from anywhere in the room with a handheld remote or wall-mounted switch.
Hand Crank Rod
A detachable crank rod connects to a gearbox at the side of the shutter. Turn the crank to raise or lower the curtain. Best for windows and smaller openings used occasionally.
Strap / Tape Winch
A woven strap winds around a spring-loaded spool mounted inside the wall. Pull the strap to lower the shutter; release to let the spring retract it. Most common in European residential installations.
Spring-Loaded (Push-Up)
A torsion spring inside the barrel counterbalances the weight of the curtain. Simply push the bottom bar up to open or pull it down to close. No cranks, straps, or motors needed.
Colours & Finishes
All shutters are powder-coated for long-term durability and UV resistance. Choose a standard colour, request a custom match, or add a finish upgrade.
Standard Powder-Coat
Included at no extra charge · Powder-coated aluminum finish
Custom Colour Match
Match any RAL or Benjamin Moore colour — powder-coated to blend with your home or brand.
Additional charge applies · Ask us for details
Optional Upgrades
Available on any installation — ask to include when requesting a quote.
Anti-Graffiti Coating
A clear protective layer over the powder-coat finish. It is designed so graffiti, paint, marker, and adhesive residue are easier to clean off. Recommended for storefronts, laneways, and high-traffic or exposed installations.

Roll-Up Shutter FAQ
What Our Customers Say
5.0 Google rating across 37 verified reviews.
Roman installed my Roll Shutters in a very timely and professional manner.
The experience was excellent from start to finish. Roll-up shutters on multiple windows and doors. Over $14,000 project and worth every penny.
We added retractable privacy screens around our patio and it completely changed how we use the space. It's cooler, more private, and far more comfortable in the evenings.
Easy communication, pleasure to work with, and the product is fantastic.
Roman was very professional and my security shutter for my side door looks great.
Excellent company, quality product. Customer service was great and all my questions were answered. Great price for quality custom shutters.
