Safety Window Shades for All Door Types

Safety Window Shades for Classroom Doors

Shelter Shutters are lockdown window shades that completely black out views into your classroom and immediately snap back into place after the emergency is over.

Although perfect for school lockdowns, our Shelter Shutters are also used in clinics, daycares, office buildings, churches and any other facility where safety is top priority.

How it Works

Made with corrugated vinyl and embedded magnets, our Shelter Shutters easily open by pulling on any edge along the length of the shutter where the “pull here” sticker is (top, middle or bottom) and folding it over. Once the emergency is over, simply pull along the same length of the shutter (top, middle or bottom) and fold it back to its original position. The entire process takes a few seconds.

ADA Friendly

Select styles are ADA-friendly, making it easy for disabled staff or even a small child to operate. Made from fire-rated or non fire-rated materials, depending on your choice, our patented design is guaranteed to open and close effectively several times.

Safer Schools with Shelter Shutters

Here’s what others have to say about Shelter Shutters

“To say that I highly recommend Shelter Shutters, is such an understatement. I first saw the product at a safety conference and I couldn’t believe something so simple could be so effective. Shelter Shutters take very little effort and the smallest child can secure the window. They will continue to protect the children in Menifee County for years to come.”

“I would recommend the Shelter Shutter for an effective, efficient and fast way to conceal visibility into an individual room or large common area."

"Just a quick follow up on the Shelter Shutters™ that were installed at Saint Catharine School in December of 2014. A survey of the staff on the products’ ease and speed of operation received a 100% positive response. I would like to thank you for providing a well thought out solution to our problem."

"We have utilized the shutters during all of our lockdown drills. Love them. Our teachers have expressed their gratitude as well. Congratulations on the patent. Well deserved."

"The shutters have shaved off valuable seconds to our lockdown procedures."
