Roller Shutter Installation at Holiday Inn – Gatwick Airport

HVP Shutters has a longstanding relationship with Holiday Inn and Gatwick Airport, having supplied and installed numerous shutters for them at various locations over the years.

This project required the installation of a K25 Roller Shutter for the bar area at the Holiday Inn – Gatwick Airport. The client's specific requirements included:

• Ensuring the bar area remains completely open and obstruction-free when the shutters are in the up position.
• Installing a system that allows easy access and security for the bar area.
• Using removable posts to maintain the aesthetic and functional integrity of the space.

Solution

To meet the client's needs, we installed the K25 Solid Aluminium Roller Shutter. This shutter is ideal for commercial settings, offering durability, security, and ease of use. Key features of the K25 Roller Shutter include:

• Material: Constructed from high-quality, solid aluminum, ensuring longevity and robust security.
• Operation: Smooth and quiet operation, suitable for high-traffic areas like hotels and airports.
• Design: A sleek design that complements the bar's aesthetic, with the shutters blending seamlessly into the environment when not in use.

To address the requirement for an obstruction-free bar area, we installed a removable post. This post can be easily inserted when the shutters are down and removed when they are up, providing a clear and open space.

Installation Process

We manufacture, supply and install a complete range of roller security shutters and grilles. The installation process for these K25 shutters was executed by our experienced engineers, who ensured minimal disruption to the hotel operations. The steps included:

1. Planning: Detailed assessment of the bar area to customise the installation plan.
2. Installation of Shutter and Post: Installing the K25 roller shutter and the removable post.
3. Testing and Handover: Testing of the shutter operation and handover for use.

All our shutters come with Operations and Maintenance manuals, which detail operational procedures and guidelines, safety instructions, and maintenance schedules to ensure optimal performance and shutter longevity.

Result

The installation was completed successfully, meeting all the client's requirements. The Holiday Inn – Gatwick Airport now benefits from:

• Enhanced security for the bar area.
• An unobstructed, open space when the shutters are not in use.
• A visually appealing and functional shutter system that complements the hotel's modern design.
