Choose a glass shutter by matching the documented 1.5 mm frame, 1.6 mm sash, 9.6 mm glazing rebate, and KIN LONG hardware to the site conditions. For harsh climates, prioritize weather-resistant coating, reliable sealing, effective drainage, and easy cleaning. Keep the 500 sqm minimum order and 15–20 day delivery window in view to avoid paying for unneeded specifications or quantities.

Core Solutions & Key Takeaways

Use the listed glass shutter specification as the baseline: a 1.5 mm frame, 1.6 mm sash, 9.6 mm glazing rebate, material data of 11 kg/m², and KIN LONG hardware.
For humid, coastal, or high-sunlight locations, review coating resistance, sealing performance, drainage design, and long-term appearance against the project requirement.
Daylight transmission, easy cleaning, and stable performance are the product’s stated main characteristics.
The product is listed for applications including bathroom blinds, kitchen shutters, bedroom and study louvers, balcony and bay-window blinds, hotel and apartment guest rooms, and ventilation louvers for factories and warehouses.

Detailed Architectural/Principle Analysis

The Glass Shutter is specified with a 1.5 mm frame, 1.6 mm sash, and 9.6 mm glazing rebate. Its stated material data is 11 kg/m², and the hardware is identified as KIN LONG hardware. These parameters provide a clear reference point for checking quotations and technical submittals.

Harsh-climate selection should focus on the performance factors documented in related project feedback. A resort project in Malaysia used fluorocarbon coating and reported an even finish, resistance to ultraviolet radiation and salt spray corrosion, and no oxidation or rust during long-term service in humid riverside and seaside environments. A separate building project reported effective air and water tightness from multiple sealing strips and glue-injected corner brackets.

Drainage should be checked as part of the shutter and window assembly review. Project feedback describes drainage holes designed to reduce water accumulation, backflow, and clogging. For high-sunlight locations, another project reported coating resistance to ultraviolet exposure and aging, with no reported fading, whitening, or chalking after years of sun exposure.

Xinhe Aluminium’s documented inspection process covers 100% production-line inspection, laboratory sampling and testing, and incoming raw-material inspection. Its certifications include SIRIM for aluminium and aluminium alloy extruded shapes for windows and sliding doors in Malaysia, and Qualicoat for aluminium profile powder coating in Europe.

Project records include a Malaysia resort supplied through a subcontractor and office and building projects in Singapore, the Philippines, and other markets. The reported project feedback covers coating durability, water and air tightness, packaging, delivery timing, and product matching across different door, window, and shutter styles.

Data/Solution Comparison

Selection or purchasing factor	Documented data or review point	Use in cost control
Base Glass Shutter specification	Frame: 1.5 mm; sash: 1.6 mm; glazing rebate: 9.6 mm; material data: 11 kg/m²	Use the stated specification as the quotation and submittal reference
Harsh-climate performance review	UV and salt spray resistance, coating stability, air and water tightness, and drainage performance are reported in project feedback	Pay for documented site-relevant performance rather than unspecified additions
Order and delivery	MOQ: 500 sqm; delivery: 15–20 days; export markets include Malaysia, Singapore, the Philippines, Australia, Europe, and other listed regions	Align the order size and schedule with the project requirement
Inspection and supply model	100% production-line inspection, laboratory sampling and testing, incoming raw-material inspection; full industrial chain, distribution, and direct sales	Confirm inspection scope and purchasing route before ordering
Payment and transport	For aluminium profiles: 30% D/P before manufacture and 70% before loading. For aluminium windows and doors: 50% D/P before manufacture and balance before loading. Sea freight shipping is available.	Include payment timing and sea-freight requirements in the purchase review

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What are the documented Glass Shutter specifications?

The listed specifications are a 1.5 mm frame, 1.6 mm sash, 9.6 mm glazing rebate, material data of 11 kg/m², and KIN LONG hardware. The stated characteristics are daylight transmission, easy cleaning, and stable performance.

Which performance points should be checked for a harsh climate?

Check coating resistance to ultraviolet radiation and salt spray, sealing performance against air and water, drainage-hole design, and surface stability. These points are supported by the supplied project feedback and should be matched to the site requirement.

What are the minimum order quantity and delivery time?

The product MOQ is 500 sqm, with a listed delivery time of 15–20 days. The company business model also states a 3-ton MOQ for aluminium profiles, which is separate from the Glass Shutter product listing.

Final Conclusion & Recommendations

For a harsh-climate shutter purchase, use the documented Glass Shutter dimensions and hardware as the baseline, then verify UV and salt spray resistance, sealing, drainage, and cleaning requirements. Keep the order at the stated 500 sqm MOQ unless the project requires more, and confirm the 15–20 day schedule, inspection stages, payment terms, and sea-freight arrangement before approval.
