DORMA aids DDA compliance at Everton Football Club

All entrance and exit points, together with hospitality suites and corporate facilities at Everton FC meet the requirements of the DDA (Disability Discrimination Act). To help meet these Regulations, the club has installed DORMA ED200 and ES200 automatics in hospitality areas, entrances and exits at Goodison Park, in a move which will dramatically improve accessibility.

Supply and installation of the units was a joint venture between DORMA and Liverpool based architectural ironmongery specialists PSL (Weir) Ltd, starting in October 2006 through to 2007. Most of the initial work was completed in just over two weeks and installation was kept on schedule, despite having to be organised around match days – including an unexpected cup replay.

Alan Bowen, the Everton FC Stadium Manager, comments: “We have had a good working relationship with PSL (Weir) Ltd, and now the different divisions of DORMA, due to the various projects they have carried out around the ground. The relationship is a continuous one, as there is always another project that DORMA can be specified for. This is evident in another ES 200 being installed in February 2008 to the "Football in the Community Office" entrance”. more…
