In July 2012 Lietzke Doors successfully completes the supply of door frames for “Single LEAP Phase 2” Project at Edinburgh in South Australia.

The “Single LEAP Phase 2” Project is an Australian Federal Government initiative to upgrade the living accommodation for Australian Defence Force personnel with new accommodation which meets contemporary community standards.  The total project when completed provides for 3,015 units of single member’s accommodation at 14 bases across mainland Australia.

Lietzke Doors worked closely with the builder coordinating up to 3 deliveries a day to the site to supply 964 steel door frames for the 430 member accommodation unit at the Edinburgh site.  The door frames are quite complex with numerous side lights and transom combinations.  The development and production was completed using the latest Computer Aided Design and Manufacturing Software ensuring the highest quality and repeatability.  The door frames were supplied complete with Aluminium glazing channel for the side light and fan light, installed from the factory saving the glazier and builder valuable site time.

Lietzke Australia Pty Ltd a division of the AM Group was chosen as the supplier of pressed steel door frames for the $69 million redevelopment of the Whyalla Hospital.  The project’s brief is a first of it’s kind for a regional hospital centre, to be constructed complete with an integrated cancer facility.  The redevelopment includes the refurbishment of theatre and day surgery facilities, the expansion of the mental health and rehabilitation wards and the relocation of the hospital’s existing surgical and medical wards to new premises.

The Lietzke pressed metal steel frames are custom designed and manufactured to suit the specific requirements of the project and the Health Industry.

The Whyalla Hospital Redevelopment is expected to be completed by mid 2013.

The new $16 Million addition to the Port Augusta Prison in South Australia, when completed, will house an extra 80 inmates and become the second largest prison in South Australia.  Work started on the site in January 2011 and is nearing the final stages of completion.

Lietzke Doors worked closely with the builder and the client to design and supply the innovative designs and solutions. The door frames and cell viewing windows were precast into the concrete panels reducing time and site costs and improving the overall strength and integrity of the frame and windows.  This cast in concept offers advantages for the builder with a reduction in onsite trades and ease of coordination.

Lietzke Doors worked closely with the Architects and the builder and supplied and installed the post fixed secure external cell windows and glazing for the bedrooms.  The cell external windows incorporate innovative security features as well as ventilation functionality.

Lietzke Doors completed the package and also supplied the secure doors which included the cell doors and medium and high security general doors in the new extension to the facility.
