Contractor: HESL
Type of works: Supply and install internal doorsets and ironmongery
Ahmarra’s range of severe duty, Q-Mark certified fire doors were selected from our Airport Door Range, for the ID Centre at Gatwick Airport’s South Terminal.
Due to the location of the airport’s fire doors and the architect’s specific requirements, the push and pull faces of every doorset were finished differently, to suit corridor, lobby and room surroundings. Ahmarra worked with both the architect and HESL to ensure that fully compatible ironmongery and high pressure laminate were sourced to suit requirements.
Working in Airport Environments
Succeeding in this sector demands a very different kind of discipline compared to standard construction. With extremely tight deadlines and the need to complete work within a single day or night shift, every component must be delivered precisely on time.
Ahmarra is known for its flawless safety record and strong reputation for quality, making us a preferred partner for many main contractors operating at the airport. What truly sets us apart is our in-house design and manufacturing capability, giving us greater control over quality and lead times.
Installation Team
Our Q-Mark Fire Door Installation team is made up of experienced, highly motivated professionals, including Project Managers, Installation Managers, skilled joiners, and carpenters. Each member is a time-served trades person, holds a valid CSCS card, and has been carefully selected for their expertise and commitment.
Airside Passes and Deliveries
To operate in secure airport environments, both our company and staff have passed thorough audits and strict security checks. As a result, our teams are fully authorised to work both landside and airside, and we are able to deliver materials directly to airside areas – helping to avoid delays and extra costs associated with the airport’s logistics centre.
