Roller shutters in Plymouth
Plymouth, in Devon's SouthWest, has been an important British port city for many centuries. And to this day commercial trade, as well international ferry services to France and Spain, are key drivers for the municipality's economy.
Next to these traditionally naval based activities, Plymouth has also developed as a university city and is now the second-largest city in the South West (after Bristol).
As the SouthWest's roller shutter specialist, Plymouth is an important location for us. Just over 40 miles away and connected to Exeter by the A38, it's literally next door. And so we carry out roller shutter installations, service and repair in Plymouth on a regular basis.

We can help you with almost any type of security shutter, because we supply and install airport shutters, retail shutters, fire-resisting shutters, shopfront shutters, open-type bar grillers shutters, etc. Contact us for more information and a free security shutter quotation.

Roller shutter installation at Plymouth Argyle Football Club
We install, service and repair roller shutters across Devon, Cornwall, Somerset as well as further afield. One of our recent installations was at Plymouth Argyle Football Club.
The club needed a number of security shutters fitted for their stadium grounds, both on the club shop as well as their main stand.
At the store we fitted a viewguard shutter, powder-coated in the club's green colour. The viewguard is a strong, affordable and versatile roller shutter with a tried and tested design. We measure the shutter opening on site and then manufacture the shutter in our factory workshop.
Viewguard roller shutters use a strong, perforated lath. The multitude of small round holes in the shutter's curtain create a semi-transparent effect and allow air to pass through the roller shutter curtain.

Considerations for a roller shutter project in Plymouth
Plymouth's rich history goes back as far as the Bronze age. This means that over time many building styles have developed in the city, some more traditional and others more modern. This brings practical considerations for any roller shutter project in Plymouth.
Historic or listed buildings
For example, if there is a security shutter requirement on a historic or listed building, there will be certain regulations and considerations that need to be respected and taken into account. Of course every project is different, which is why it's usually wise to meet on site and discuss your exact requirements.
We're experienced doing listed building work, so we can assist you in taking the best route forward.
Modern or new buildings
When working on security for more modern or new buildings, you can already involve us at the design stage. We often work with designer builders and architects and can provide you with technical specifications in the format you need, as well as CAD-drawings.
We also have a wide breath of knowledge about fire-shutters and can help you during the development of a fire-exit strategy. Our rolling shutters can be fitted in new construction and integrated into walls. They can also be fit in existing structures.
Ocean climate and port or ferry installations
With Plymouth being a port and ocean city, there are sometimes additional considerations for roller shutter installations. Depending on your location, strong, salty ocean breezes can make it necessary for us to supply extra weather-proofing to a security shutter. We'll always discuss this with you in advance, so that you can take this into account.
Fun facts
Did you know that roller shutters also get installed aboard ocean-going ships? HVP have installed various roller shutters at cruise ships crossing the Earth's seas. So you could say our shutters are truly going around the world!
The port of Plymouth is the biggest Naval Base in Western Europe. Also see some more interesting facts about Plymouth.
