When Security Becomes Part of Design – Rethinking the Display Case
November 25, 2025
The targeted theft of valuable artefacts within minutes shows that even renowned institutions are facing new challenges.
Where cultural heritage meets material value, the display case must ideally be conceived from the very beginning as part of a well‑designed security concept — precisely planned, technically integrated, and equipped with multi‑layered protective mechanisms.
Sehner has always focused on the intersection of presentation and protection.
Sehner display cases meet the highest standards of preventive conservation, technical integration, and aesthetic restraint.
Tailored solutions for heritage collections, private archives, and premium retail.
Each case is individually developed — featuring refined optics, anti‑reflective laminated glass, invisible sealing systems, climate‑stable interiors, and secure locking mechanisms. Every component can be configured to the object’s specific risk profile.
Especially for high‑value objects — museum pieces, heritage collections, or luxury retail displays — Sehner’s expertise becomes particularly relevant.
Sehner security cases offer protection on multiple levels: laminated safety glass with increased resistance to tool attack exceeds common museum standards. The constructions are prepared for seamless integration with alarm and monitoring systems. Precision manufacturing ensures no visible gaps or vulnerable points. Production follows the highest German quality standards — durable, serviceable, and designed for long‑term reliability.
As security incidents continue to rise, museums, brands, and collections around the world are re‑evaluating the role of display cases. It is no longer only about visibility — but about reliable presentation with fully integrated protection.
Sehner Precision Glass Displays are the preferred choice for museums, galleries, and high‑end retail environments worldwide.
