Choosing between a GI single skin and double skin rolling shutter depends on your building requirements, budget and insulation needs.
GI Single Skin Rolling Shutter
A GI single skin shutter is made from a single layer of galvanized iron (GI) steel slats. It is a practical choice for warehouses, shops, industrial units and areas where basic security and economical operation are priorities.
Best for: Storage areas, industrial openings and applications where thermal insulation is not a major requirement.
GI Double Skin Rolling Shutter
A GI double skin shutter uses two metal layers, often with an insulating core depending on the design. It can provide better insulation and a more substantial shutter construction.
Best for: Commercial premises, warehouses and buildings where improved insulation or reduced heat transfer is required.
Which GI Rolling Shutter Should You Choose?
Choose a GI single skin shutter when budget and basic security are your main priorities. Consider a GI double skin shutter when insulation and the specific requirements of your building justify the additional cost.
Before deciding, consider the opening size, operating frequency, security requirements and whether insulation is necessary.
