1. GROUND WORK IS PREPARED AND FOUNDATIONS LAID
The groundwork and slab work were completed by a local construction company employed by the client directly. The contractor carried out this work on the building slab to drawings supplied by Steel Storage.

2. PORTAL FRAME ERECTED
The building frame was supplied and erected by Steel Storage's own contractors. All sections were ordered and delivered to site pre cut and drilled. All parts were marked to enable sections to be identified, positioned and fixed by means of both nuts bolts and washers and teks. This was completed to Steel Storage construction drawings. Once the frame had been installed the external cladding and roof sheets were delivered to site and fixed by teks. The flashings for all external corners on the building and roof were then manufactured at our factory and delivered to site and fixed.

3. INSTALLATION OF PARTITIONING AND DOORS
The picture shows kicker plates being fitted.
The internal partitioning was designed and manufactured by Steel Storage and installed by our own contractors; All of the materials including the doors were manufactured at our Twickenham factory. All internal walls are constructed using our patented vertical interlocking, high security SS810 “Guardian” Safe Edge panel system. The panels are roll formed using resin coated steel. The partitions are set into 1.2mm Zincalume ® channel tracks top and bottom, with vertical channel at intersecting points. Exposed edges are protected by safety edges to all return folds and there are no vertical fixings, pop rivets or studwork requirements.

5. COMPLETED DRIVE UP UNITS WITH ROLLER DOORS
The roller doors were bought in for this project from one of our suppliers, However we are now manufacturing our own roller doors, having recently purchased specially designed machinery and tooling, allowing us to offer our customers a more competitive package
