Medical Centres, UK

Type of works: supply and installation of Charter Integr8 security shutters.

Charter has been chosen to install built-in security shutters to 40 new medical centres across the UK. Many of the centres, designed to bring together a broad range of local health and community-based services, will be located in deprived areas, putting them at increased risk of vandalism and burglary. The Charter-Integr8 shutter system has been specified because it offers the highest level of security without adversely affecting the appearance of a building. Charter’s Sales Manager explains how:

“The Charter-Integr8 range of shutter solutions includes the option to house the shutter within a structural lintel. This means the shutter mechanism is completely concealed within the structural fabric of the build make-up and doesn’t impact on the building’s appearance, so when the shutter is open it can’t be seen.”
