Firm shows its metal with new school gates

Located on a busy main road, the school was keen to improve security and access.

School governor Craig Ford, said: “We chose Alpha Rail because they had an excellent reputation, and because they were locally based.
“The work has been completed to a very high standard and they have been very helpful throughout the project, particularly when it became apparent that the traditional stone wall required re-laying and pointing following drainage problems on the site.
They also worked well with other contractors involved in the works.”
