Merstham Park School

OVERVIEW

Merstham Park secondary school for 11-16 year olds, prior to 2022, consisted of temporary cabins in the grounds of nearby Chart Wood School.


With the construction of a brand new, state-of-the-art low carbon secondary school, the educational facility underlines their motto of 'igniting a passion for learning' - seen in the high quality classrooms providing an education and leisure space (including a dance studio and all weather sports pitch) for 900 students.


Challenge

178 modules were craned into location within a 6 week period - meaning less time on-site, less hassle, and faster install; avoiding extra disruption and delays to site works.


Award winning roofing and cladding contractor Marksman Roofing + Cladding was contracted for the cladding of the building - including the sports hall, (the only building constructed on-site), to fix the stunning Rockpanel Chameleon exterior that blends in with the surrounding environment - futureproofing the look of the school for years to come.


Solution

For this project, Fixfast were able to assist Marksman with lacquered DrillFast fasteners - with low profile heads to blend in with the cladding, these fasteners are available for light or heavy steel.


Alongside these, Fixfast also provided SureFast 6.1mm diameter concrete screws, and a range of other fixings including wood screws and DF12-W wing drillers.


"We have a strong working relationship with Fixfast, this was strengthened again whilst working on Merstham Park. Fixfast offered technical support throughout the project, whilst also maintaining exceptional customer service with prompt deliveries"
