Southern Cross Medical project overview
Southern Cross Medical Springfield required aluminium systems that could deliver consistent performance across multiple applications while maintaining the clean, professional finish needed in healthcare environments.
Key Project Requirements:
- Robust, compliant systems suitable for medical facility standards
- Consistent profiles across all openings and wall junctions
- Smooth operation designed for high-traffic, frequent-use environments
- Clean, professional finish appropriate for healthcare settings
- Hardware solutions for long-term reliability
The aluminium systems used on this healthcare fit out
This project utilised six key systems from our comprehensive range, each selected for specific performance requirements while maintaining visual and functional consistency throughout the facility.
92mm supreme C/A framing system
We supplied our proven 92mm Supreme Commercial Aluminium framing system as the structural backbone for this healthcare facility. This reliable framing solution offers:
- Strong, reliable commercial-grade aluminium construction designed for healthcare applications requiring long-term durability
- Proven suitability for medical facility projects across Brisbane and South East Queensland
- Seamless integration with glazing systems and consistent detailing throughout the installation
- Solid structural performance that supports the entire healthcare fit out with dependable results
Our years of experience in commercial projects helped specify this framing system for its reliability and consistency that medical facilities demand.
100mm aluminium doors (including double doors with T-strip)
Our new 100mm-wide aluminium door stiles were specified throughout the facility, including sophisticated double door configurations:
- 100mm door stiles providing enhanced structural performance for high-traffic healthcare environments
- Double doors featuring T-strip configuration for clean, professional meeting stiles that maintain visual consistency
- Specifically designed for frequent-use medical facility applications where reliability is essential
- Balanced design combining aesthetic appeal with structural durability required for healthcare fit outs Brisbane
These doors demonstrate how our modern aluminium systems meet the demanding operational requirements of healthcare facilities while maintaining clean, contemporary aesthetics.
Häfele door hardware integration
The collaboration with Häfele hardware showcased the importance of quality partnerships in healthcare fit out applications:
- Premium Häfele hardware specified across all aluminium door applications for consistent performance
- Drop bolts integrated into double door systems for secure, reliable operation in medical environments
- Hardware selection specifically chosen to complement our aluminium systems for enhanced longevity and smooth operation
- Proven compatibility between leading hardware brands and our aluminium systems ensures reliable performance
This partnership demonstrates our commitment to providing complete, integrated solutions rather than standalone products for demanding healthcare applications.
Cavity Sliders: timber & aluminium door applications
The project incorporated both timber and aluminium cavity sliding door solutions, providing operational flexibility across different spaces within the medical facility:
- Combination approach allowing right solution selection for specific areas within the healthcare fit out
- Smooth operation with concealed detailing maintaining clean wall lines essential for medical environments
- Ideal solution for areas where traditional swing doors would be impractical in healthcare settings
- Consistent performance standards across both timber and aluminium applications
Mating glazing kits & door frame kits
System integration was achieved through carefully coordinated glazing and door frame components:
- Clean junctions between glazing and door systems eliminating visual inconsistencies across the healthcare fit out
- Streamlined installation process reducing site complexity and potential issues during construction
- Visual consistency maintained across different opening types throughout the medical facility
- Coordinated systems approach reducing complexity typically associated with multi-supplier projects
150mm aluminium skirting with grey rubber insert
The skirting system completed the integrated approach with practical, durable detailing.
Flexible, integrated aluminium products for commercial projects
The Southern Cross Medical Springfield project illustrates how our different system components work together seamlessly, allowing designers to select the right solution for each application while maintaining overall consistency across the healthcare fit out.
While this example focuses on healthcare, these same integration principles apply equally to office, retail, educational and other commercial environments throughout Brisbane.
