ROLLADEN ROLLING SHUTTERS - Key Persons

Linda Raymond had Rolladen Rolling Shutters installed on her Summerlin home 12 years ago and plans to have more added to her home in the near future. One of the first things Linda Raymond did when she purchased her home in Summerlin 12 years ago was have Rolladen Rolling Shutters installed on two upstairs windows and her downstairs bedroom. "I love my shutters," said Raymond, who is a coordinator for the deaf and hard of hearing program for the Clark County School District. "I had them installed because of their energy savings and the fact that they block out the light. "I can't sleep when the light is allowed in my house. I also had the one put in my bedroom for security reasons. Nothing beats rolling shutters and I wouldn't be without them. In fact, I want to have more installed in the near future." Raymond said the light issue is especially important for her in her south-facing Summerlin home. "Most deaf people cannot sleep when there is light allowed in a home," she said. "We are very visual people, so we are sensitive to the light. I have been deaf since birth, and I have been very concerned about security since I got my first home. My neighbors are not here year round, so I feel much safer with my Rolladens." Raymond, a 26-year resident of Las Vegas who moved here from Los Angeles, said the service provided by Rolladen was excellent. While her 1,800 square-foot, two-story Summerlin home is her third residence, it is her first home with Rolladens. "They treated me very well," she said. "Many people have asked me about my shutters, and I tell them they are wonderful." Raymond said the versatility of the shutters allows her to open the shutters, which can be left in a vented position while still providing security.
