LSF Commercial has delivered a new aluminium envelope across seven storeys on Newham College’s East Ham campus.
As part of a large-scale refurbishment, LSF Commercial was appointed to supply and install all new aluminium windows, doors and curtain walling. The scope covered curtain walling for the main entrance, new doors on the ground floor and replacement windows across all seven storeys. LSF fabricated everything using systems from Comar by Bailey, formally Comar Architectural Aluminium Systems.
At the entrance, large, glazed curtain walling brings as much daylight as possible into the building while improving thermal performance. Above it, the old windows have made way for high-efficiency, powder-coated Comar aluminium windows.
“Schools and colleges have very particular needs,” LSF director Onkar Toot said. “Windows and doors have to be secure and meet strict standards, yet students still need bright, comfortable spaces to learn in. We’ve spent years getting that balance right.”
