Aluminium windows and doors

MALLORQUINA SHUTTERS

The classic louvred shutter, with fixed or adjustable slats and 1 to 4 hinged leaves.

Mallorquina is the classic Mediterranean shutter, made in aluminium: louvred side-hung leaves, fitted outside the window. The louvres can be fixed or adjustable, which changes the way it is used completely — from permanent shading to fine control of the light.

Besides shading, a closed shutter also improves the transmittance of the assembly. CORTIZO publishes a correspondence table between the transmittance of the window alone and that of the window + shutter assembly.

The thermal transmittance values published by CORTIZO are minimum values for the system, conditional on the typology, on the dimensions of the joinery and on the glazing unit. The actual value of an assembly is established by calculation, on the configuration actually ordered.

From system to finished joinery

What we do with this system

Choosing the configuration

The system offers a range; the project asks for a value. We settle the version, the glazing unit and the typology from the actual requirements of the building, not from the maximum on the data sheet.

Calculation on the actual assembly

The transmittance of a window depends on the frame-to-glass ratio. We calculate it on the actual dimensions of the openings, not on the laboratory specimen.

Our own production

Cutting, machining, assembly and glazing in our own workshop in Baia Mare, on original CORTIZO profile and with hardware approved for the system.

Installation and handover

We install with our own teams, including abroad, and hand the job over with its documents. The warranty is the one published on our warranties page.
