Protecting Woking’s Heritage – All Saints Church Hall, Woodham

3 min read Doors Local

In the heart of Woking, where the spire of All Saints Church has stood for years, we recently upgraded the security of the adjacent community hall. This project shows our commitment to security and also how we can preserve our town’s heritage with modern safety.

Woking’s Challenges, History and Safety

Woking, with its mix of Victorian and modern, has its own challenges when it comes to security upgrades. The installation of four secure push bar doors and double doors at All Saints Church Hall in Woodham required:

– Preserving Woking’s historic buildings
– Meeting modern safety standards for public spaces
– Accessibility for all Woking residents, from young families to retirees

A Woking Success Story: All Saints Church Hall upgrade

The work at All Saints is more than just a visual upgrade. It’s a commitment to community safety and we’re proud to be a part of it.

Why These Doors Matter to Woking Residents

  • Emergency Preparedness: In a town that loves community events, from the Woking Food Festival to local charity functions, safe exit routes are key.
  • Inclusivity: The new doors are designed for easy use for all, including those with mobility issues – a vital consideration for our diverse Woking community.
  • Energy Efficiency: Contributing to Woking Borough Council’s climate emergency targets, these doors are more energy efficient.

Our Woking-Focused Installation Process

Every stage of our process was Woking specific:

  • Local Consultation: We met with All Saints management and Woking Borough Council to ensure compliance with local regulations.
  • Woking-Based Team: Our installers are all local to Woking and know the town’s architecture.
  • Minimal Disruption: We worked around the centre’s schedule so Woking’s community activities weren’t disrupted.

Our customers say

“Used the Sheerwater team to replace a couple of Velux windows in our converted loft. Really first class experience, great communication throughout, super professional and the installation was the best we've had in terms of fit and finish and (lack of) damage to surrounding areas. Will use again!”Tim Loake
