Agricultural Security & Ventilation Solutions

Agricultural buildings face a unique combination of challenges: remote locations, large openings, limited power availability, high-value equipment, and strict welfare and safety requirements. Security and access systems must be robust, practical, and reliable, not over-engineered or dependent on complex infrastructure.

We supply, install, and service security roller shutters, steel security doors, and Galebreaker ventilation systems for farms, estates, and agricultural operations across the UK. Our approach is based on matching the level of security and operation to how each building is actually used.

Typical Agricultural Applications

Farms often include a wide mix of building types, each with different security and access requirements:

• Machinery and equipment sheds
• Chemical, fuel, and controlled storage
• Grain and feed stores
• Workshops and maintenance bays
• Livestock housing and barns
• Estate and outbuilding storage
• Secure farm shops or on-site retail

Each area requires a different balance of security, ventilation, access, and resilience.

Key Challenges on Farms

• Remote sites with limited or unreliable power
• High-value machinery and tools
• Storage of chemicals and controlled materials
• Exposure to wind, rain, dust, and livestock
• Large openings and irregular structures
• Requirement for low-maintenance, long-life systems

Our solutions are selected to perform in these conditions without introducing unnecessary operational risk.

We supply a range of security roller shutters, specified by risk level, usage, and power availability.

Manual Chain Roller Shutters (No Power Required)

Ideal for agricultural stores and outbuildings where electricity is unavailable or unreliable.

Typical uses:

• General storage buildings
• Feed and equipment stores
• Remote sheds and barns

Key benefits:

• No electrical supply required
• Simple, reliable operation
• Strong physical deterrent
• Low maintenance

Electrically Operated Security Shutters

Used where regular access is required and power is available.

Typical uses:

• Workshops
• Machinery sheds
• Frequently accessed storage buildings

Options include heavy-duty motors designed for agricultural environments.

High-Security Roller Shutters

Designed for areas where a higher level of protection is required due to value, risk, or regulatory considerations.

Common applications:

• Machinery and vehicle storage
• Chemical and pesticide stores
• Fuel storage areas
• High-value tool and equipment sheds

These shutters offer enhanced resistance, reinforced construction, and increased deterrence for vulnerable or high-risk areas.

Steel security doors provide controlled access to smaller openings where shutters are not practical.

Common uses include:

• Store rooms
• Chemical and controlled substance storage
• Workshops and plant rooms
• Internal secure rooms

Our steel doors are specified for agricultural use, offering durability, secure locking, and suitability for harsh environments.

For livestock housing and agricultural buildings where airflow is critical, we supply Galebreaker ventilation systems.

Typical Applications

• Livestock sheds and barns
• Dairy units and milking parlours
• Poultry housing
• Open-fronted agricultural buildings

Benefits

• Allows controlled natural ventilation
• Reduces wind chill and driving rain
• Improves air quality and animal welfare
• Helps manage condensation and temperature
• Available in manual or automated formats

Galebreaker systems are often used alongside shutters and doors to balance security and ventilation across the site.
