About Plymouth Crematorium

The Plymouth Crematorium at Merafield, an upcoming facility on the eastern edge of Plymouth, blends seamlessly into its natural surroundings. Inspired by the local landscape, its design features Plymouth Limestone construction and large windows offering scenic views. Reflective spaces for memorials and green burial options align with its commitment to modern, respectful services for the bereaved.

A roller shutter for the plant room

The plant room at Plymouth Crematorium serves as the central hub for critical mechanical and electrical equipment essential for the cremation process. Given the sensitive nature of the equipment housed within, it's very important this space is secured well. At the same time it needs to be possible to move large equipment in and out of the room, and a roller shutter was the best choice for this.

The Industrial insulated roller shutter installed in the plant room not only provides insulation and accessibility but also plays a crucial role in safeguarding the equipment from unauthorized access and external threats. With its robust construction and advanced locking mechanisms, the shutter ensures that the plant room remains secure at all times, maintaining the operational efficiency and safety standards of the crematorium.

Requirements for Industrial Insulated Roller Shutter

The requirements for the shutter were as follows:

  • Insulated roller shutter suitable for the plant room at Plymouth Crematorium.
  • Integration with a 240v tube motor for seamless operation.
  • Robust construction to ensure security and protection of critical equipment.
  • Addition of rows of vision panels at eye level to allow staff to view outside and prevent raising the shutter during services.
  • Compliance with safety standards and regulations for industrial facilities.
  • Customizable design to blend seamlessly with the architectural aesthetics of the crematorium.

Our Industrial insulated roller shutter fitted the requirement perfectly.
