HVP Security Shutters at Cardiff Market

Preserving Heritage, Enhancing Security: HVP Security Shutters at Cardiff Market

Cardiff Market stands as one of the city’s most iconic landmarks—a vibrant centre of commerce and community since 1891, and a Grade II* listed building recognised for its historic and architectural significance. Protecting such a treasured site requires a careful balance of heritage sensitivity and modern security.

Solid Timber Roller Shutters

Our custom-made timber roller shutters are a unique and elegant security solution for spaces where aesthetics are as important as protection. Crafted from high-quality wood with internal steel cables for reinforced security, these shutters provide a beautiful, natural look that complements both classic and contemporary interiors. Designed for smooth, quiet, and low-maintenance manual operation, they are perfect for internal applications in prestigious locations such as bars, reception counters, hotels, and historic buildings. As they are made from timber, it's important to note that they are for indoor use only, but with our professional installation and commitment to quality, they offer a reliable and stylish security solution for any interior.

Restoring Security & Heritage: HVP Security Shutters at Cardiff Market

Cardiff Market is a cherished Grade II* listed building and a vibrant retail hub at the heart of the city's history. Its iconic Victorian structure and bustling atmosphere demand both a high level of security and a deep respect for its heritage.

Recently, HVP Security Shutters was proud to be entrusted with the replacement of eight solid timber shutters within this historic market. Our team worked closely with the market’s management to ensure that every new shutter met the stringent requirements of the Grade II* listing, respecting both the visual character and the fabric of the building.

A Heritage-Focused Approach

Our installation process involved a meticulous blend of traditional craftsmanship and modern precision:

Careful Removal: The original timber shutters were removed with great care, with a focus on preserving as much of the original material as possible.

Custom Manufacturing: New shutters were custom-manufactured in our workshop to perfectly match the original profiles and finishes, in line with all listed building regulations.

Discreet Integration: We discreetly integrated modern security features, ensuring the shutters provide robust protection without compromising the market’s unique Victorian interior.

At HVP Security Shutters, we offer a truly unique and elegant solution for premises where security must seamlessly blend with architectural beauty: our bespoke timber roller shutters. Also known as wooden roller shutters, these products are meticulously crafted from real, high-quality timber to provide a natural, rich aesthetic that is perfect for both classic and contemporary interiors. A key feature of our design is the integration of internal steel cables, which reinforce the timber to provide a robust security barrier, giving you peace of mind without compromising on style. The result is a highly functional and beautiful shutter that enhances the visual character of any space.

Our timber shutters are custom-made to measure for a perfect fit, ensuring smooth, quiet, and low-maintenance manual operation. They are an ideal security choice for a wide range of indoor applications where a professional and elegant appearance is a priority. This includes high-profile installations in prestigious locations such as bars, reception counters, hotels, historic buildings, museums, and galleries. It is important to note that due to their timber construction, these shutters are designed for internal use only and are not suitable for external or wet environments. With our professional installation and commitment to quality, you can be confident that our wooden shutters will provide both an attractive finish and reliable security for years to come.
