Roller shutters Beeliar
Beeliar's name, approved in 1993, is the Aboriginal name for the southern metropolitan region. At the 2021 Census 90.2% of its homes were separate houses, and we make shutters and outdoor blinds for them in Wangara.

Beeliar burglaries and a growing population
Burglaries in Beeliar are lower than five years ago. WA Police recorded 52 in 2021 and 40 in 2025, a fall of 23.1%, and the count stood at 116 back in 2017. The path between has been uneven, with 34 in 2024, but over the five years the direction is down.
The 2025 rate is 4.6 per 1,000 residents, a little above the metropolitan Perth rate of 4.0. That rate is worked out on the 2021 Census count of 8,617 people, and Beeliar has grown by an estimated 23.0% between 2021 and 2025, so it overstates the real figure per resident.
Where does a roller shutter fit in? It is a physical barrier on windows and doors that makes forced entry slower and noisier. Treat it as one layer among several, next to deadlocks, an alarm and sensor lights.
Leaving a Beeliar home with the shutters down
At the 2021 Census, only 8.3% of Beeliar residents were 65 or over, about half the Greater Perth share of 15.8%, and the median age was 34. Mining employed 6.7% of working residents, just above the Greater Perth figure of 6.6%. That is a proxy at best for fly-in fly-out work, which the census does not record.
Here is what motorised shutters can do while the house is empty:
- Remote control: close every shutter from one handset on your way out.
- WiFi hub: open or close them from your phone while you are away.
- Timers: have them open and close automatically at set times each day.
- Battery drive: Ozroll's battery system does not rely on mains power, so the shutters can still be operated in a power failure.
WA Police holiday advice lists other steps: set timers for lights and electronics, store valuables and important documents in a safe, and let your local police know when you will be away.
Beeliar houses: shutters, blinds and alfrescos
Beeliar is a suburb of houses. The 2021 Census counted 90.2% separate houses among occupied dwellings, well above Greater Perth at 77.8%, with 4.8% semi-detached or townhouses and another 4.8% flats. Home ownership was 74.7%.
Residential roller shutters cover bedroom windows, living areas and glass sliding doors. The smaller number of units and townhouses in strata schemes need the strata company's written consent for anything visible from outside the lot that does not match the rest of the building.
At the back of the house, Slidetrack and Ziptrak blinds can close in an alfresco, and cafe blinds and motorised blinds are in the range as well.

Beeliar bushfire mapping and main road traffic
More than half of Beeliar, 53.3%, is designated bush fire prone on the state map in effect from 13 December 2025. A building wholly outside the mapped area does not have to meet bushfire construction requirements, so check where your lot sits first.
For homes inside it, Building and Energy's retrofit advice is that windows should be protected with metal screens or bushfire shutters. Ozroll says its roller shutters have been tested by the CSIRO against BAL-29 and BAL-40 standards, while noting that the specifics of each application need checking for compliance.
Stock Road and Rockingham Road are mapped as strategic freight or major traffic routes, Beeliar Drive and Russell Road as other significant routes, and a freight railway also crosses the area.
Approval and rebate questions for Beeliar owners
Does fitting shutters need the City of Cockburn's approval? Not where the state exemption applies. It covers alterations to a single house if the R-Codes apply, the work meets the deemed-to-comply provisions and the house is not heritage protected.
Two City policies are worth knowing. The incidental development policy does not list shutters, blinds or awnings, excludes heritage-protected places, and says a proposal it does not address needs approval; the state exemption above applies separately. The heritage design guidelines say all development affecting a place on the City's Heritage List needs approval, minor works included.
The City of Cockburn's Seniors Security Rebate, which lists roller shutters at $350, is closed for 2026 to 2027. Seniors Card members can claim up to $400 on window shutters under the state's Safety and Security Rebate.

Questions about roller shutters in Beeliar
Are burglaries in Beeliar going up or down?
Down over five years: WA Police recorded 52 in 2021 and 40 in 2025, with 34 in 2024. Beeliar has also grown by an estimated 23.0% over that time, so the 4.6 rate overstates.

Not if the state exemption applies: a single house is exempt when the R-Codes apply, the work is deemed-to-comply and the place is not heritage protected. Places on the City of Cockburn Heritage List need approval.

53.3% of the suburb is designated bush fire prone. Building and Energy advises metal screens or bushfire shutters on the windows of existing homes in mapped areas.
