Case Study: Roller Shutter Installation – Brighton Shelter Hall, Sussex

HVP Security Shutters was commissioned to design, supply, and install bespoke roller shutters for Brighton Shelter Hall, a prominent hospitality and retail venue located on Brighton’s iconic seafront. The client required robust, visually appealing security shutters to protect the premises from break-ins, vandalism, and the challenging coastal weather, while maintaining the building’s welcoming and historic character.

Case Study: Armourshield Roller Grille Installation – Brighton Shelter Hall

Project Overview
After a comprehensive site survey and consultation with the project team, HVP Security Shutters specified and installed bespoke Armourshield roller grilles, designed to provide robust security and a visually open, elegant finish. Armourshield roller grilles were selected for their strength, durability, and ability to withstand the challenging, high-wind conditions of Brighton’s seafront—while complementing Shelter Hall’s unique architectural style.
