Education and public buildings
Schools, transport hubs and civic buildings need entrances and glazing that handle heavy footfall, safety requirements and, often, buildings that remain in use.
In short
HB Aluminium fabricates and installs aluminium entrances, windows and curtain walling for schools and public buildings. Examples include a heritage-sensitive school entrance at Bradford Grammar School and curtain walling at Rotherham Interchange.
What we do for education and public clients
Our portfolio includes an aluminium entrance at Bradford Grammar School built in keeping with the school's heritage, curtain walling at Rotherham Interchange, work at Otley Court Houses and Lelley Fields Crematorium.
- Entrance systems for schools and public buildings
- Replacement aluminium windows
- Curtain walling for new and extended buildings
- Repairs and maintenance on existing doors
Working on occupied and sensitive sites
Schools and public buildings usually have strict rules on access, safeguarding and working hours. Work in holidays, phased installation and keeping entrances usable are common requirements.
Areas within education and public buildings
Schools and colleges
School work runs to the school calendar. Safeguarding, site access and keeping a safe entrance open all shape the programme.

Bus and rail buildings are open long hours, used by large numbers of people and exposed to the weather on every side.

Civic buildings are often older, sometimes sensitive, and need to stay accessible to the public while work goes on.

Questions and answers
Can installation be timed around school holidays?
We can plan around holiday periods where the programme allows. Let us know the key dates when you send the enquiry.
Do you work through main contractors on public projects?
Yes. Much of our work comes through main contractors, and we are happy to price as a subcontractor on public sector schemes.
