At Shenley Wood and Lovat Fields Retirement Villages in Milton Keynes, ageing timber balconies needed a safer, longer-lasting replacement.
Working with The ExtraCare Charitable Trust and First in Service, Dura delivered a fully non-combustible aluminium decking and unique substructure solution across both occupied retirement communities.
Using Dura Deck® Aluminium and d² Quickspan® Beam, the project achieved:
✅ Improved fire safety compliance
✅ Reduced maintenance requirements
✅ Faster, lower-disruption installation
✅ Enhanced slip resistance and durability
✅ Lower material use with improved spanning capability
A strong example of how remediation projects can improve safety, performance and resident experience at the same time.
