Case Study: Roller Shutter Installation – Albany House, Birmingham
 

Case Study: High-Security Roller Shutter Installation – Albany House, Birmingham

Project Overview

Albany House is a prominent, multi-storey office and commercial building located in the heart of Birmingham’s business district. With a steady flow of staff, visitors, and tenants, the property required a robust, low-maintenance security solution to safeguard assets, restrict unauthorised access, and enhance both safety and visual appeal in a modern urban environment.

Solution: Bespoke Solid Lath Roller Shutters for Commercial Security
Following a detailed site survey and close consultation with the property management team, our experts specified and installed custom-made solid lath roller shutters. These shutters were selected for their proven reliability, high strength, and ability to integrate seamlessly with Albany House’s contemporary façade.
