ISG Jackson special projects takes retail scheme in Horsham

ISG Jackson Special Projects has commenced work on its latest project with Morley Fund Management, a £580K project to convert an existing retail unit in Horsham, West Sussex. The former Focus outlet, on the outskirts of Horsham, will be subdivided into two equal sized units, providing smaller format and highly desirable retail accommodation in this out of town location.
The single-storey unit will undergo significant remodelling, with ISG Jackson Special projects removing the roof and replacing this with a newly designed metal pitched roof system. High level cladding panels will be removed and replaced as part of the works, and the contractor will construct a steel frame extension to the rear of the unit to create additional sales/storage capacity. The shop front will be modified, with new glazed screens and doors installed and a new perimeter fence erected around the building. The entrance to the outlet, off Foundary Lane, will also be enlarged to enable easier vehicular access to the retail units and the contractor will resurface the car park and create new bicycle parking areas.
Internally, ISG Jackson Special Projects will install a partition wall to divide the store into two equal sized units and demolish an existing concrete framed office structure to provide a large open plan format within both outlets. Mechanical and electrical services with the building will be also upgraded, with the project scheduled for completion in June 2007.
Michael Manning, divisional director for ISG Jackson Special Projects, commented: "The company continues to secure a strong pipeline of opportunities with Morley Fund Management as we build upon our successful ongoing relationship. By delivering a responsive and consistently high quality service, ISG Jackson Special Projects develops longstanding relationships with clients that result in high levels of repeat business across both public and private sectors.”
