Prefabricating large sections of a building and delivering the completed element to site is an increasingly popular method of construction. Conditions in a factory are invariable better than those on site and for complex items such as rainscreen cladding and curtain walling, quality control can be maintained much more effectively off site. An additional benefit is installation time on site can be significantly reduced.

Great Western Hospital is a good example of this approach. Dualframe opening lights were supplied direct to the panel manufacturer prior to being installed as a completed unit on site. Further details of this installation are listed in our Completed Projects section.
