London Gay Pride 2017

Maltaward completed a Concrete Ring of Steel for the GAY PRIDE event in London on the weekend of 8th July 2017.

This was a weekend event attended by approximately 100’s and 1,000’s of people.

We had to deliver and install throughout the night in the busy capital on the Friday night and reopen the roads after the event in the early hours of the Sunday 9^th July and clear the Concrete Barriers away from the event.

Our team of installers did a fantastic job and it was a job we were pleased to have done.

The logistics in doing these projects takes a lot of planning.

We have our own in house team of Appointed Persons, Slinger Banksman and trained Forklift Operators and installers.

Once again, thanks to all the team involved for the safe delivery of the Project.

IAAF Marathon 2017 in London

We had a very interesting project to carry out on behalf of the organisers of the event and working with the Met Police for the event held in London.

We had to carry out the installation on the weekend of 5^th August and also carry out the de-installation on the Sunday 6^th August once the event was complete and the medals had been given to the participants.

Working in these environments is always a challenge but thanks to our in house team and their commitment the project was delivered in a very tight timescale and everybody was pleased with the outcome.

A big thanks to all the team involved.

Landlords Increase Safeguarding for Smaller Commercial Units

A large number of landlords are stepping-up security services for their smaller sized commercial units.

An increase in illegal parking, abandoned or dumped vehicles are causing landlords unplanned expenditure due to the recruitment of bailiff services and in-turn the associated vehicle removal/storage/disposal. Our concrete barriers provide an instant solution.

Internal fly tipping within smaller commercial properties is also on the increase. A proactive measure is to place our barriers in front of the main entrances to restrict vehicular access (loaded with waste) close to buildings.

Our clients’ state that the visual impact of our concrete barriers alone is a great deterrent to warn off unwanted visitors.

Once our concrete barriers are installed on-site, additional measures can be employed to further safeguard your property. Our time served and vetting subcontractors can provide a number of services including Bailiff services, door and window screens, also security dogs and handlers.

Should you have questions or require a quotation please call our office free on 0800 043 2742
