- Aluminium shafts: a light and strong option, perfect for medium to large shutters. In addition, their material does not rust, which ensures greater durability and minimal maintenance.
- PVC shafts: These are an economical and versatile option, especially for small and lightweight blinds. They are easy to install but we do not generally work with them as they are less durable.

Frequently asked questions
Which roller blind shaft is right for me?
The choice of the most suitable roller shutter shaft depends on the size, weight and type of roller shutter you have, as well as your personal preferences in terms of material and budget. For small and lightweight blinds, PVC shafts can be an economical and versatile option. For medium to large shutters, aluminium shafts offer lightness and strength. For large and heavy shutters, steel shafts are the sturdiest and most durable option.
How can I measure the size of the shaft I need?
To measure the size of the axle you need, follow these steps:
- Raise the blind to the fully open position.
- Raise the blind to the fully open position.
- Measure the length of the current axis from one end to the other.
- Be sure to take into account the space needed for brackets and fittings at both ends of the shaft. Note that if you cannot access the actual shaft, you can measure the width of the window and add a few extra centimetres to ensure a proper fit.
Which roller shutter shaft material is best in terms of durability and strength?
In terms of durability and strength, steel shafts are generally the best choice, as they offer greater resistance to wear and deformation. However, aluminium shafts are also an excellent choice, as they are lightweight and corrosion resistant. PVC shafts may be suitable for small, lightweight shutters, but may not offer the same durability and strength as steel or aluminium shafts.
