Aluminium shop fronts and shop front doors
Aluminium shop fronts and shop front doors are a key part of our business here at Secure House as we deliver both commercial and residential projects for clients across the UK and Europe. We’ve been very busy recently in both areas and wanted to share some of the details in this particular blog post.
In the last few months, for example, we have completed three separate secure aluminium shop fronts, including the design, manufacture and installation of high security doors, for customers whose retail businesses are deemed at high risk of potential burglary, theft, ram raids (via car and moped) and vandalism.
One of our most recent projects was for a luxurious Asian jewellery store in Halifax, West Yorkshire.
Highly secure aluminium shop front
Using the very strongest security doors, windows and shutters available on the market today, the shop front is now more than able to withstand a ram raid attack as well as repeated hits from a conventional sledgehammer. The objective of the project was to create a highly secure aluminium shop front that was not only strong and durable but also attractive to passers-by and potential customers.
“We specialise in high end, high security doors and windows and, having worked for brands and luxury retailers such as Louis Vuitton and Mont Blanc, we had unrivalled knowledge and experience to deliver this particular project,” explains Edmundas, managing director of Secure House.
“Following several meetings, we specified a system that will prevent and foil any attempted burglary or theft. First of all, the team created a highly secure airlock facility to enable customers and staff to safely access the shop using a proven two-door method.
Safe and secure airlock
“The addition of a safe and secure airlock ensures clear visibility for employees in the store to identify anyone who wants to enter. It ensures their complete safety as well as any customers who may also be inside the store at any moment in time. This peace of mind is invaluable in this particular type of retail environment.
“We also fitted high security interlocking shutters which are fully motorised and lock in four different ways from the top, bottom, side and inside to further protect the property from criminals.”
All round security and fire protection
Adds Edmundas: “As well as aluminium security doors, windows and shutters, we have an extensive range of commercial fire doors including one that is fire rated up to 120 minutes. These doors are specifically designed to look like any normal door, but they are far from it as they are both fire resistant and offer a high level of security for all kinds of different commercial premises.”
