About This Project

Client Background

Conack Construction was commissioned to deliver a new medical building in Towlerton. As part of this development, they required robust security and access solutions. MF Services was engaged to support two critical elements of the project:

Ventilated Steel Doors for the plant room.
A secure and user-friendly parking barrier system for patients and staff.

The building’s design demanded solutions that were compliant with healthcare facility standards while being both durable and easy to use.

The Challenge

The client required:

High-security steel doors that also provided adequate ventilation for plant room operations.

Monitoring and operational reliability were key, given the sensitivity of the facility.

The Goal

Supply and install five ventilated steel doors tailored for safety and airflow.
Provide, fit, and commission a 1-in, 1-out parking barrier system for secure yet efficient access control.
