Saving Unbound Facade at NYC Hospital

Highlights:

WindowFix recently accomplished a demanding project that involved supplying and installing 140 custom architectural windows in an occupied building filled with sensitive equipment. This challenging endeavor required meticulous planning, coordination, and execution to ensure the safety and functionality of the facility throughout the process.

A primary challenge was the deteriorated state of the building’s façade, which was slowly detaching from the main structure. Additional issues with the façade also needed attention. To address these problems, WindowFix engineered a creative solution that preserved both the interior and exterior of the building while enabling the necessary repairs. This innovative approach involved retaining the original window frames and applying preset panning over them. This method not only protected the existing surfaces but also allowed the windows to be removed for repair and replacement without causing any damage.

WindowFix efficiently managed the existing structural issues while maintaining the building’s overall integrity. The project’s complexity was further heightened by the building being fully occupied and housing sensitive equipment essential for managing the database of the NYC Health and Hospital Corporation (HCC). Recognizing the critical nature of HCC’s operations, WindowFix meticulously synchronized entry and preparation procedures to minimize disruptions and ensure the safety of the equipment.

Understanding the importance of continuous operations and the need to protect critical equipment, WindowFix took extra measures to mitigate any potential issues. The team worked closely with the Directors of HCC to adhere to strict time constraints and ensure the project was completed within the required timeline. The professionalism and systematic approach of the WindowFix team played a crucial role in meeting these demands.

Throughout the project, WindowFix demonstrated their ability to deliver exceptional results under rigorous conditions. The precise design and execution of the installation procedure ensured a successful outcome for both the building and its occupants. By overcoming the various challenges presented, WindowFix showcased their expertise and commitment to excellence in every aspect of the project.

The project’s success is a testament to WindowFix’s ability to handle complex and sensitive environments while maintaining high standards of quality and safety. Their innovative solutions and meticulous planning allowed them to preserve the building’s integrity and functionality, ensuring that HCC’s operations continued without interruption. The team’s dedication to meeting the needs of the client while navigating the intricacies of the project highlights WindowFix’s capability to deliver outstanding results in even the most challenging circumstances.
