South Queensferry School received an express service from Yeoman Shield to complete staircase wall refurbishment works during the February half-term holiday period.

With the requirement to protect 3 staircases and stairwells, Yeoman Shield were able to facilitate the supply and installation of 375 metres of FalmouthEx wall protection panels to suit the 4-day window allowed for the work to be carried out.

Fitted to 1250 mm high along these areas, in 3 different colours to identify different departments, Yeoman Shield experienced installers were able to accommodate faultlessly the rake angle of the staircase walls, as well as removing and then reinstalling the original handrail when the panelling had been completed.

South Queens Ferry School’s Business Manager commented “Yeoman Shield’s team of installers made an excellent, professional job of the wall protection project and we are very pleased with the results.”

The implementation of wall protection to school interiors prevents impact damage caused by the movement of pupils, staff, bags and equipment. Stopping scratching and marking will result in reduced maintenance and redecoration costs in the future whilst serving to extend the lifecycle of interior walls.

The easy-to-clean, inherently hygienic properties of the rigid PVCu wall panels ensure a high standard is maintained around the school enhancing the interior design and the welfare of pupils and staff.
