Malaga, WA -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/20/2015 -- Perth HomeGuard, one of Western Australia's leading building security specialists, published an informative new guide to the many residential uses and advantages of roller shutter systems. Available at the company's home page at www.perthhomeguard.com.au/, the eye-opening guide contains a number of important, little-known facts and will give homeowners a lot to think about. For more than twenty years, Perth Home Guard has been a leading supplier of roller shutters, security and barrier doors, and other security enhancements to customers of all kinds throughout the Perth area and elsewhere in Western Australia.

"Although they are perhaps more commonly associated with storefronts and other business facilities," Perth HomeGuard representative Mike Mukesh said, "roller shutters can be a valuable addition to any home. Our new guide to the subject shows that they can do a lot more than just dissuade burglars, as well. We think our website visitors are going to really enjoy learning more about this sometimes-overlooked home improvement option."

NRMA Insurance, Australia's largest insurer, estimates that well over half of all residential break-ins nationwide happen as burglars take advantage of unprotected windows. Even the lightest of aluminum roller shutter systems can be enough to force criminals to look elsewhere, since breaching them by normal means can be almost impossible.

In addition to providing effective protection against break-ins and burglary, residential roller shutters can offer a lot more to homeowners, though, as the new Perth HomeGuard guide shows. For example, some systems can deflect as much as 90% of the energy from the often-fierce summer sun in Western Australia, greatly cutting down on cooling bills. Roller shutters can be nearly as effective at saving energy in the wintertime, helping to hold in heat produced by a home's boiler or furnace.

In addition to covering these important facts, the new Perth HomeGuard guide to residential roller shutters will inform readers as to a number of other equally significant, and often under-appreciated, advantages of such systems. As one of Western Australia's longtime leading suppliers of such products and similar ones, Perth HomeGuard was especially well-positioned to put together this valuable, entirely unique online resource.

Operating under Australian Security Agents Licence number SA00182 and holding many other certifications, including one denoting successful completion of Safety Awareness Training with the Master Builders Association of Western Australia, Perth HomeGuard is one of the most trusted security specialists in the entire state. Customers ranging from government agencies to industrial concerns, commercial operations, and residents regularly enjoy greatly improved security and other benefits thanks to the company's products and services.
