Renovations Diary

8th April 2022

This week, the Warriors have proved that many hands make light work. Or, more accurately, many hands have fitted doors, trimmed, painted, secured, and so much more as The Kitchen edges ever closer to completion.

The Hallway

In the internal hallway, the final bits of painting and boxing in of pipework were undertaken. This has got to be in really good condition for transporting food between The Kitchen and The Bar.

The Kitchen Door

You know when things are nearing completion when the team fits the (very heavy) door for The Kitchen. If you have tried it before, there is a certain nervousness about this to make sure that it hangs and fits properly. After doing that, the team added the various strips required to minimise smoke and fire.

Miscellaneous

There were lots of other ‘wee‘ jobs going on, too numerous to list or photograph. Instead, we will show a couple of examples. Firstly, we were kindly donated a large fridge/freezer unit which needed to go into The Cold Room; however, to get it in required the removal of door frames and the whole team to manhandle it into place. Another is the addition of an extractor fan in The Dry Story Room. All necessary, all time-consuming, but we are nearly there!
