Delivering next generation schools and colleges

With the pledge to rebuild or renew every secondary school by 2020, making the right choices in material and design has never been more vital.

The drive towards sustainability and zero carbon building technology puts the onus on clients, architects and main contractors to choose the very best window, door and curtain walling options from the best fenestration partner.

The Litchfield Group's building products enable architects and specifiers to achieve cost-effective, long term solutions.

Your low carbon fenestration partner

Sheerframe windows, doors and curtain walling offer a high quality solution for schools and colleges:

• Sustainable in manufacture
• Stylish in their design
• Compliant with all safety and security standards
• Highly durable and easy to maintain
• Unrivalled performance-cost ratio
• 100% lead-free stabilised and recyclable post-use
• Supplied and fitted sustainably by a network of locally-based providers.

What is more, the Sheerframe system has been successfully installed in schools and colleges across the UK, for more than 25 years.

Manse Masterdor door-sets provide equivalent performance and styling excellence where timber-engineered and composite doors fit the bill.

All Masterdor and Suredor door-sets comply with the latest relevant standards, representing exceptional quality in a comprehensive range of styles.

An integrated building envelope

The Litchfield Group can help architects and specifiers meet the need for significantly enhanced thermal performance and low running costs in newbuild schools and colleges by providing the walls too.

Our ICF Tech insulating concrete form system completes our product range for the building envelope to roof height. ICF Tech is the only complete ICF system specifically designed for the UK construction sector and is perfectly suited to low and zero carbon educational buildings.

The supply and fit system includes all the elements required to construct ICF walls such as the floor supports, bracing and alignment system and closers to seal the window and door cavities.

In combination with Sheerframe windows and Masterdor door sets, ICF Tech walls deliver excellent thermal standards.
