Bradford City Library Staircase - City Square
Bradfabs were approached by an architect within Bradford Council as they were struggling to find a local supplier who had the capacity, financial stability and more importantly the skills to design and manufacture a large feature staircase for the new library setting at Centenary Square, Bradford.
Bradfabs were successful in receiving the order for the staircase and set to work in visiting the site and reviewing the drawings provided by the architect. The main factor was the staircase had to be ready for the opening of the new library setting in 8 weeks time!
The high specification of the staircase included 19mm Toughened Laminate Glass (Safety Precaution for users of the library) hand polished Grade 304 Stainless Steel Glass mounted handrailing, the actual staircase was made using powder coated mild steel and the treads were steel trays filled with concrete screeding and then covered in vinyl.
The overall effect of the high specification of the staircase is ultra modern and extremely high quality and fits in well with the aesthetic feel of the new library.
The installation of the staircase went well with no major obstacles and more importantly it went in on time for the opening!
