    Summary:

    South Derbyshire District Council (SDDC) is seeking early market engagement with potential suppliers for the replacement of doors and glazing at Rosliston Forestry Centre. This is an opportunity for suppliers to visit the site, understand the project requirements, and contribute to shaping the final specification ahead of a formal procurement process.

The site comprises several buildings designed with sustainability and environmental priorities in mind. SDDC is exploring options to replace existing timber and Perspex elements with powder-coated aluminium frames and double-glazed units, improving durability, accessibility, and aesthetics in line with Equality Act 2010 compliance.

    The works will include:

    Visitor centre doors and façade upgrades

    Main front entrance replacement

    Rear office and café doors

    Front café doors

    Associated glazed cladding and frame works

    Integration with fire alarm systems for fail-safe operation

    Further details, including approximate dimensions and draft specifications, will be provided during the supplier day.
