Tesco Superstore

Working for high profile client Tesco, the project involved meeting strict deadlines to achieve a vital store opening date for this 58,000sq ft Tesco superstore. The project included curtain walling to one full elevation and a quantity of aluminium windows and more curtain walling to the end elevations. A significant factor in this project was the ability to meet stringent energy and air-tightness requirements. We also constructed an entrance foyer in line with Tesco’s drive for improved energy efficiency in-store.

Student Accommodation, Jordanstown

The project was based at Ulster University’s Jordanstown campus. The site consists of 620-unit accommodation blocks, with an administration building for the Ulster University. The site offers dual usage as quality student facilities during university semesters & holiday apartments through the summer break. The project involved installing PVCu windows and entrance doors to the en-suite student accommodation units.

St Benedicts College

This large-scale project involved carrying out extensive installations to this post primary school college when the school was functioning. It was vital that minimum disruption was caused to the school’s live working environment. Working for the local Education Authority, we replaced all the PVCu windows including the installation of new steel lintels. We also completed repairs to the existing roof down-stand and several concrete window cills. The property is a two-storey detached college located in Randalstown, Co. Antrim.

Office & Retail Development

Working for main contractor JH Turkington & Sons on a Belfast city centre commercial office development project. The project consisted of installing curtain walling, aluminium windows and balcony doors. The project was unique as the building’s glazed front façade leans outwards away from the building and overhangs the street. The front facade also incorporates three glass roofs which required rigorous design details to ensure the integrity of the building envelope. Access to the site was limited, however we completed the project on time and to our usual high standard. As part of the project, we also installed glazing and access to an upper exterior mezzanine area.

Group 4 Security Building

Our client for this project, G4S is a multi-national security company. The project entailed the installation of high specification glazing into a highly secure Alarm Response Centre. The building was of steel framed construction with block work skin and a significant amount of security grade glazing. We used low-e tinted glazing with aluminium windows and curtain walling to successfully complete the project.

Aldi Supermarket

This Aldi supermarket was a fast-track construction project. Strict deadlines were in place, with all installations needing to be completed within a limited time scale. All aluminium windows and curtain walling were manufactured and cut off-site, to agreed sizes from detailed plans to minimise on-site time for the main contractor.

McGinnis Construction

Working for our client McGinnis Construction, we were responsible for the supply and installation of secure high performance A rated PVCu windows and composite doors. We won this contract on our ability to deliver the specified products on time, and for our comprehensive after sales care and support.

Law Society House

Turkington Aluminium & PVC supplied and installed all the windows and structural glazing for this eye-catching building, including the centre-piece multi floor entrance foyer. The façade design incorporated Brise Soleil and tinted glazing to provide solar shading and solar control to enhance usability. The finish was anodised bronze aluminium which adds greatly to the aesthetic appearance. Of particular note were the number of flashing details which were of a bespoke design to ensure intricate interface details were accurately constructed and installed.

Government Building

Working for the Estate Services Business Unit of the Police Service of Northern Ireland on this significant commercial project. The project involved the installation of aluminium windows and curtain walling at a multi-storey, mixed use facility in downtown Belfast. The entire building is a low carbon design with the glazed units designed and installed to maximise energy efficiency and security.

Juvenile Justice Centre

A sensitive project installing high security windows to a Juvenile Justice Centre in County Durham. The project required high security windows and automated blind systems to be fitted to all the bedrooms. The glazing system needed to be anti-ligature and fully secure from both inside and outside. The project also involved the installation of a significant element of curtain walling and commercial doors to access secure courtyard areas.

Fraser Homes

For this project, we were required to supply and install ultra-secure high performance triple glazed windows and thermally efficient composite doors to a new build site in Carryduff, Co. Down. We worked alongside our client, Fraser Homes and it was vital for them to have a partner who could maintain high standards throughout the project.
