EDUCATION

Education projects take many shapes and forms – from the large university campus through secondary school refurbishment to a small pre-school.  Just as diverse are the door applications required on these widely varying schemes.  Working together with a door manufacturer having the broadest product range, service and experience ensures that as many solutions as possible can be found from one resource.

Value for money is crucial for any school – where the fixtures of a building need to last – making durability one of the most important attributes of doors in educational facilities. The demanding dynamics of corridors, gymnasiums and classrooms in both primary and secondary school applications provide challenging environments for internal doors.  Durable laminate and high-impact edge protection can maintain condition and function for many years.

Youngs Doors can offer door-sets to conform with the acoustic demands of Building Bulletin 93 Achieving necessary acoustic ratings with the inclusion of vision panels is also a requirement for many educational facilities.  The various acoustic requirements of timber door sets can always be met by the products in the Youngs Doors range.

In addition we are fully conversant with the supply and fit of the ‘Safehinge’ system; designed to minimise the risk of trapped fingers.

As a single source for doors-frames-hardware Youngs Doors will work with you to specify the right doors for all the special demands of an education project, supplying a product and service to satisfy performance, environmental and aesthetic goals.

Schools, colleges, universities and other educational and training environments require door-sets to particularly robust specifications.  As with healthcare, doors can play a vital part in the total function of building, equipment and personnel coordinating successfully.

• Corridor fire rated personnel doors for high traffic levels.
• Severe and really severe duty door cores
