Anti-lift bolt

An anti-lift bolt is a part anchored to the bottom slat of the shutter that locks it as it comes down, so that it cannot be raised from outside. The automatic ones work on their own, without you having to do anything.

Its great advantage is convenience: you do not have to remember to put it on every time. It is one of the best known systems for stopping shutters from being lifted.

What you need to bear in mind is that everything depends on that one part and on the slat it is fixed to holding firm. If the slat bends, the hold loses strength. We explain this in detail in T-profile reinforcement versus bolts and locking devices, alongside our shutter security system.
