Our Experience in the Education Sector
From large-scale new builds like Ysgol Bae Baglan and Skinners’ Academy, Hackney, to smaller upgrades for local schools, our in-house team manages everything — from design and fabrication to installation and aftercare.
We work collaboratively with contractors, architects and local authorities to deliver safe, compliant and visually pleasing school environments.
Procter Fencing & Security successfully delivered the fencing and street furniture package at Ysgol Bae Baglan… Products were of an excellent standard and installation met tight programme constraints.”
— Bouygues UK
Most importantly, we can undertake the installation at a time that is convenient for you, which usually means the summer holidays, though smaller projects can be completed at other times including half-term breaks and weekends.
A new-build school project in which we were heavily involved was Ysgol Bae Baglan. Luke Owen, Bouygues UK’s quantity surveyor for the project, was very pleased, saying: “Procter Contracts successfully delivered the fencing and street furniture package at Ysgol Bae Baglan. There was a broad spectrum of products from bespoke feature gates to conceptual seating, then to your more common items such as Secure by Design fencing, cycle shelters, bollards and the like.
“The products that were manufactured by Procter were of an excellent standard and they were able to significantly reduce lead in times which was fantastic on such a fast-paced project.
“The high standards of the design and manufacture process were replicated by the site installation process. Procter adequately resourced the project to achieve increasingly stringent programme constraints.”
Another new-build project was for the Skinners’ Academy in Hackney. We supplied and installed ornamental railings along the roadside boundary and high-security mesh panel Pro-sure 358 fencing at the rear of the site. There were also two powered and four manual swing gates, and a key part of the project was the customised cantilevered sliding gates that control access through two openings 8m wide. The client was delighted with all aspects of our work and the products installed.
