Project Value
The new prison at Glen Parva is the second prison being built by the Government, alongside the new prison at Wellingborough. Glen Parva and Wellingborough Prison are jointly expected to create 3,360 modern, safe, and secure prison places.
Over the last 18 months, we’ve consulted with Lendlease throughout the project to achieve specification compliance with the associated HMPS standards.
We supplied and installed an extensive steel door package of ninety-two LPS 1175 SR2 Security Rated Steel Doors, 8 Cube Sectional Roller Shutter Doors, 9 Traditional Sectional Overhead Doors, 25 Roller shutters, with additional Fire-Rate Steel Doors on the Glen Parva prison project. Our SR2 doors already approved by Secured by Design met the approval for the Prison scheme.
Rotec’s project management team worked hand in hand with the MOJ’s lock manufacturer, to ensure the design of the lock housing in production was without fault, allowing the third-party locks to be fitted straight after handover.
It was imperative that all door installations were correct due to the lead times of the project. To ensure there were no issues at the time of the project handover, we ran multiple quality checks throughout the design process, working in collaboration with all third-party stakeholders integrally involved. As the pictures highlight, the doors installed were ready for the third-party locks to be installed.
Rotec specified Cube overhead shutter doors at two entrance points, which met the air permeability requirements of a 1.5 U-Vlaue. This choice of the product had a unique concertina feature which suited the internal ceiling space, giving the client a valued engineered solution.
The challenges of working with other engineering sub-contracting firms on major projects like this are where Rotec excels, due to having the right people and expertise to tightly run the project from cradle to grave, with the utmost diligence, care, and attention.
