I’m sort of thinking about going a slightly different route and getting outside rolling shutters - the kind which are controlled by a rocker switch inside - and then putting a smart switch on those. Much more expensive but then I’d get all the benefits of metal shutters and it would hopefully be less hassle for me overall.
I think they’re totally worth it but do yourself a favor and get a large level of you don’t already have one. And go overboard with the prep work. Measure twice, cut once, etc. You’ll have a hard time releveling if you mess it up the first time.
I’ve never installed the outdoor kind. I didn’t even know those existed, I’ll have to check then out!
