Status
Phased programme
01 — The Brief
The community centre needed better-performing windows and new entrance and exit doors, delivered in phases so the building could keep running.
02 — The Challenge
The centre is in regular community use, so openings had to be removed, replaced and made weathertight within each working day.
03 — Our Response
We replaced windows opening by opening with white uPVC acoustic-glazed units and installed new thermally broken aluminium entrance and exit door sets.
04 — The Outcome
The completed phases have transformed the elevations and entrances. This is a phased programme; high-level winding gear was not part of the latest stage.
