Watchorn Church, Alfreton

Client Overview:

Watchorn Church is an independent Christian Church in the centre of Alfreton, Derbyshire. As they very often have children on the property, and sometimes unattended when playing, they decided that they needed a bit more protection and safety for the children by adding some railings around the front of the church, so the children cannot access the main, busy road that the church is on.

Project Brief

We were approached by a man named Mark Ozenbrook, who is one of the trustees at Watchorn Church and he expressed to us the concern of the Church, that the children playing on the front had easy access to the main road and this could be very dangerous for them. Mark requested a quotation for us to supply and install bow top railings around the front of the Church, in black, and also add a matching gate to make it easily accessible.

Alpha Rail’s Approach:

Here at Alpha Rail, we have a team of Bespoke Metalwork specialist technicians that support our clients to make the right choice for their project. We’re able to advise on design, size and other technical specifications. In this specific project, our approach was clear – Bow Top Railing were the right product for the job.

The first thing we did was confirm that the railings would be suitable in this situation. We then proceeded with a site survey to get all the details and measurements.

Once the client was happy with what they wanted we proceeded to manufacture the 2m high bow top railings, and also a matching gate to go between the railings.

We then got the railings galvanized and powder coated and then they were ready to install.

Our fencing installers then proceeded to install all of this for the church.

The Results

The result was successful, and the client was very pleased with the results.

The railings were put up successfully and have added a safety barrier around Watchorn church whilst still keeping the aesthetic look to the church.
