12 Jul Fieldway Secures Major Contract for Installing 350 Fire Doors with Wakefield District Housing (WDH)
Fieldway is proud to announce that we have been awarded the prestigious contract for the supply and installation of over 350 fire doors for Wakefield District Housing (WDH). This significant achievement marks an important milestone in our commitment to enhancing fire safety in social housing.
Project Scope
The project involves:
- Measured Surveys: Our in-house, highly trained surveyors will conduct detailed surveys at each WDH property to ensure accurate measurements. This guarantees that the new fire doors fit perfectly with the door frames, maximizing fire protection.
- Collaboration with Solidcor: We are partnering with Solidcor, a leading fire door manufacturer, to deliver this project on time and in strict accordance with WDH’s schedule. Solidcor’s expertise and certification in fire door design and supply are unmatched across the UK.
Solidcor’s Contribution
Solidcor has spent nearly a year working with WDH to create bespoke, fire-tested door sets, including various sidelight and top light configurations. Their focus on the social housing market and understanding of the unique challenges faced by housing associations ensure quick and easy installation, keeping residents satisfied.
Addressing Safety and Compliance
In response to the tragic Grenfell Tower disaster, Solidcor recognized the need for greater clarity within the fire door sector. Through 18 months of intensive research and development, they have introduced a unique solution for the social housing sector. Their fire doors meet market demands for compliance, high performance, and logistical certainty.
Commitment to Excellence
Fieldway will adopt these key pillars of contract delivery by building trust among ourselves, Solidcor, WDH, and their tenants. Our swift installations aim to minimize disruption to residents’ everyday lives while ensuring their safety.
Future Endeavors
Fieldway looks forward to further developing our relationship with Solidcor and WDH. We are eager to continue delivering top-tier fire safety services and protecting social housing tenants in every possible way.
