Sliding FlexiGlide Shutter at Ca’puccino, Canary Wharf in London

It was great working at Canary Wharf again. On this occasion we fitted our FlexiGlide Vision Glass sliding security shutter to the Ca’puccino Restaurant.

The Vision Glass shutter was perfect for the wide opening to the coffee-shop patisserie. The sliding shutter is over fourteen metres long and has a curve from one side to the other before making two turns into the stacking area. This way it's possible to secure the entire entrance to the cafe restaurant with a single sliding shutter.

Working out of hours on this job, we were grateful for coffee ...

Working outside core opening hours

Canary Wharf needed us to work out of hours to deliver and install the shutter into the Shopping Centre. This meant some tiring nights for our engineers (but thank goodness for coffee 😉). However, the restaurant now has a quality sliding shutter that is going to last for years.

About Vision Glass sliding shutters

Ca’puccino, Canary Wharf opted for a FlexiGlide Vision Glass sliding security shutter. The Vision Glass combines excellent visibility with a very good level of security. It consists of heavy duty aluminium panels with strong polycarbonate glazing, and is available in virtually any finish.

All FlexiGlide shutters operate manually without the need for electrics. They also can be made to any length and take up very little headroom because of the low top-track they run in.

The top track can be shaped to follow almost any curve, which makes FlexiGlide shutters perfect for openings in curvy or wavy walls.

A wide choice of sliding shutter types

FlexiGlide offers all kinds of styles (types) of sliding shutters. From the very open 'Classic Chainlink' to the completely closed 'Protector', and everything in between. They all have their strengths and you'll find a comparison in this FlexiGlide Model Types table.
