Roller Shutter Guide Adapters for MDF & Acrylic Panels

Many window solutions for mobile air conditioners fail not because of the panel itself, but because of its attachment.

Common problems:

• Panels slip
• Window guides are damaged
• Drilling or gluing to the window is necessary
• Solutions are difficult to remove

These adapters were developed precisely for this purpose.

They enable stable attachment of MDF or acrylic panels directly into the exterior roller shutter guide – without permanent changes to the window.

This allows for much cleaner and more stable implementation of window seals for mobile air conditioners, for example.

Assembly

The adapters are first inserted individually into the roller shutter guide.

Then, the MDF or acrylic panel is slid in from above between the adapters.

This fixes the panel in the guide without drilling or permanent mounting to the window.

The guide itself takes on the task of stabilizing the construction.

Advantages

• no permanent changes to the window
• removable solution
• stable panel guiding
• suitable for MDF and acrylic
• ideal for climate or sealing projects

Technical Dimensions

The adapters were designed for the following guide geometry:

• Outer width: approx. 25 mm
• Inner areas: approx. 17–18 mm
• Guide grooves: approx. 13–14 mm
• Clamping areas: approx. 2 mm
• Total height: approx. 50 mm

Please check the dimensions of your own roller shutter guide before printing, as window profiles can vary depending on the manufacturer.

Printing Instructions

Recommended Material

• PETG recommended

Note

The adapters are designed as a compatible solution for roller shutter guides and are not universally suitable for every window system.

If you use the model, I would appreciate feedback on other window or panel thicknesses.
