New Leeds Depot for Northern Commercials
Client: Northern Commercials
Project name: New Leeds Depot
Location: Leeds
Accommodation Type: New site office, marketing suite and staff canteen
No. of modules: 4 (12.0m x 9.6m)
Programme duration: 14 weeks
Requirement
Northern Commercials, a leading transport operator, expanded their operations by opening a new depot in Leeds. With a brand-new site that included a full concrete yard and vehicle workshop, a building to house essential office and welfare facilities was required.
The client needed a modern, functional space to accommodate staff and provide an inviting area for their clients. The building required an office space, a marketing/showroom area, a manager’s office, staff canteen and toilet facilities.
They also had a specific requirement for the external finish of the building. Northern Commercials wanted a clean, professional look that aligned with their branding, specifying a White Aluminium finish. Standard plastic-coated steel did not offer this colour, so Portable Building Sales upgraded to Tata Steel’s colour coat Prisma, which matched the client’s exact specifications.
Portable Building Sales was selected for this project due to its ability to deliver high-quality, aesthetically pleasing buildings at a competitive price.
Solution
Portable Building Sales manufactured and installed a 4-bay modular building, providing a comprehensive solution that met Northern Commercials’ functional and aesthetic needs.
In addition to the office and welfare spaces, the client plans to enhance the building further by adding an entrance canopy, ramping the ground to the door for accessibility and installing internal glazed partitioning. Northern Commercials also branded the building both internally and externally to reflect its corporate identity.
Portable Building Sales provided a complete turnkey solution, handling the design, manufacture and installation of the modular building. The installation process was completed efficiently within two weeks, keeping the project timeline on track and ensuring the new depot was operational as planned.
I'm really happy with the building and the project ran seamlessly from when we first got in touch to hand over. We are glad we went with your building option over your competitor's product as the building looks much better and has more of a ‘wow’ factor than what we saw at their place.
