No One Is HomeSafe From The Curator Of Shit When The Ugliest Of Exterior Rolling Shutters Are Employed!
Motorized HomeSafe Rolling Shutters at 3343 South Braeswood Blvd, Houston, Texas

- Even by 1912, when this image of steel rolling shutters appeared in a trades magazine, the device was used to close commercial facades. At this time the mechanism was hand operated rather than by electricity, but even by the turn of the 20th century had been long in use. IN fact, the first patton that we found was in 1818, granting Mr. Whiting of Ipswich, England the rights to design and manufacture wood and iron rolling shutters operated mechanically. However, it wasn’t until the 1830s that companies such as Barrow and Turner began actually producing and installing the rolling shutters. This invention would be improvedover time. Motorized version came later in the twenieth century.
How can we trust certain innovations in regards to openings or apertures when specific companies claim that the HomeSafe Rolling Shutters “…do not compromise aesthetics….” HomeSafe Rolling Shutters are made to cover windows and other light-related apertures and are mechanical devises that resemble the most grotesque specimens of doors that are often employed on garage or storage buildings galore. As is seen in the example house provided. Innovative openings…our royal ass, ass the problems of home security, storm protection, and weather protection are never more apparent or even minor when solutions such as this are covering your holes.

A close-up of the putrid specimens of the rolling shutters that mar the attractiveness of the place. Looks almost as attractive and equally depressing as a long line of closed storefronts.
We had come across these devices in the rear of a building in a semi-unfriendly alleyway and thought the devise rather putrid, understanding the necessity. However, when these are to be employed in an aesthetically pleasing environment, and on every conceivable aperture, we must deplore them.

A prison-like appearance of the windows, an almost soviet bleakness, within an otherwise attractive environment.
For those of you unfamiliar with Houston, Texas, the ranch house is as ubiquitous there as the row house is in Baltimore, Maryland, or the tile roof in California. Amidst an oasis of green grass and a built context of mid-to-third quarter of the twentieth century ranch houses, many built with the greatest architectural and building practices of their day, we would d like to introduce our readers to Linkwood Park, a residential subdivision south of Braeswood Blvd., just north of the South Loop West Freeway (610) in the close-in suburbs of Houston, Texas—a city defined by suburban neighborhoods, driving/traffic, and parking lots. However, S. Braeswood is its own environment of attractive dwellings and yards, some stale, but certainly a pleasant change from pavement and parking lot.

A side elevation of the garage and facade portions of the rolling shutter clad house...note the vynil siding that matches at the upper portion of the garage facade.
Among those mid-century dwellings no yet to meet the wrecking ball for McMansions, the specimen of this article is at 3343 South Braeswood Blvd. The photographs speak for themselves; however, we would like to recommend using the HomeSafe Rolling Shutters or other versions of the same style and form if you want your house to be completely devoid of natural light on a regular basis, or perhaps if you would prefer the appearance of a commercialized dwelling—or even if your goal is to denigrate the attractiveness of the neighborhood. However, for those of you who love the idea of plastering shut or rolling in this case the light possibilities and visuals quality of every single window, we assure you that some place like Innovative Openings will certainly be able to provide the most current of synthetic sidings to match.
We know it’s not the nicest thing to bash someone’s house, but just think of how the neighbors feel when they look at this prison of commercial garage door delight???
While we stand for perservation organizations on a whole, we urge Houstonians to join organizations such as the Greater Houston Preservation Alliance in their effort to preserve beauty and history in that remains as part of the built environment. Houston has already lost so many buildings in the name of progress, but what is a parking lot if there are no buildings to access? We hope that Houstonians will understand that absent a few areas most of its attrative sections ahve been denegrated, necessitating the need for an entire shift of priorities












I shutter (see what I did there?) to think of what an example that DID compromise the aesthetics looks like!
You have to admit, that is so nasty…lol…thank you for transfering your comments…
