Galliford Try Construction
A typical sixties style building with public, staff & delivery
entrances required refurbishment in order to give greater
accessibility to their customers and therefore fulfil obligations
under the DDA .
In a phased-programme of works, new entrances have been created
for the general public, council staff and goods. The main entrance
consists of four sets of automatic sliding doors with slim-line
aluminium profiles offering high levels of acoustic and draught-proofing
performance. Two sets of exterior, double-glazed doors are set
within a structural glazed system and open into a lobby area,
and two sets of interior sliding doors lead visitors into the
reception area.
The staff entrance has had its existing two revolving doors
replaced with four automatic sliding doors incorporating slim-style
aluminium profiles. Structura also manufactured and installed
a bolted, glass-type canopy above the entrance. A pair of swing
doors with automatic operators serves the building’s loading
bay.
Works also included refurbishment of two atria, replacing cracked
glass and face-caps, and over 600 windows.
