Boston Medical Center

Union Doors & Suffolk Construction

Healthcare Industry – Ambulance Entryway

Union Doors was asked by Suffolk Construction to be an integral part of their team in moving Boston Medical Center’s ambulance entrance. Boston Medical has one of the busiest ambulance emergency entryways in the city of Boston; the job required Boston Medical ambulatory entranceway to be shut down for a maximum of 48 hours. This project required and received a massive push by all participating businesses and trade workers.

Union Doors turned a space where there was once nothing into a brand new entryway with a customized Horton bi part slider on the exterior and a Horton Automatic 4000 pair inside complete with remote switching (Horton 4000 Series Heavy Duty Swing Door Operator Dual).

This project required the presence and participation of all Union Doors staff and management; the job started at 12am Friday evening and ending at 11am Sunday. Boston Medical was up and running with what is being referenced as “temporary” while the new Menino building is built.

Union Doors sends special thanks to Boston Medical and Suffolk Construction for the tremendous opportunity to be a part of this project. Union Doors also appreciates and shows admiration and respect for all the trades who labored hard through the weekend to get the project completed, among them; Sweeney Dry Wall carpenters, Sully Mac ( electrical ) and ,the laborers Union , everyone involved felt a great sense of priode and accomplishment to have delivered outstanding service for Boston Medical.

Legal Crossing | Revolving Pedestrian Door-

Legal Crossing – Horton Manual Revolving Pedestrian Door-

Legal Crossing recently opened in Boston’s Downtown Crossing area. The venue is the latest concept from MA based Legal Sea Foods. The restaurant is a perfect fit for the area and is attracting a full house most nights.

K & G Entrances brought in Union Doors as a subcontractor to install the restaurant’s Horton manual pedestrian revolver.

The installation featured Horton’s “EasyFlow™” 9500 Series Manual four wing Revolving Door System.

This Horton door series is used for a number of valuable reasons; it requires modest entranceway space for installation and is top of the line in assisting with energy efficiency keeping the restaurant warm in the winter months and cool in summer.

The following was aggregated from the official Legal Sea Foods website. For more information on Legal Crossing or the many other Legal restaurants please visit the official website by clicking the link below.

https://www.legalseafoods.com/
Legal Crossing is an urban neighborhood restaurant inspired by the vibrancy of Downtown Crossing, then and now. It’s a cross between all of the Legal Sea Foods concepts, evolved into a new, singular experience.

The menu showcases the freshness and purity of our seafood. Tried-and-true favorites from all the Legal Sea Foods concepts (Legal Sea Foods, Legal Test Kitchen, Legal C Bar and Legal Harborside, Floor 1 and 2) – evolved by preparation and/or presentation – along with exclusive offerings, comprise the menu mix. At the same time, we’re shaking things up with our cocktails. Many of them are a playful nod to Downtown Crossing’s colorful past, while the influence of Chinatown is seen in some of the exotic ingredients used.

Inspired by the urban setting of its neighborhood, Legal Crossing is slick, dark and modern with glossy, black brick paired with glowing amber glass. In warmer months, we open our patio along Avenue de Lafayette.

Boston Park Plaza Hotel-

Union Doors Installs Horton Revolver-

The Park Plaza Hotel in Boston recently revealed a number impressive renovations to the historic 1927 upscale hotel. The hotel is located right off the Boston Common, the USA’s oldest park.

Union Doors was brought in by K & G to help refurbish the entryway of the hotel by installing a new pedestrian revolver. The door installed is a customized ten foot tall Horton “Grand” Revolver. The new door creates a visually stunning and luxurious entrance to the hotel which sets the tone for what awaits in the new Park Plaza lobby.

To view more photos of the Union Doors installation at this Boston historic landmark please click the link below or the photo above.

http://uniondoors.net/the-boston-park-plaza-hotel/

There have been several informative articles written about the renovation; in this post we aggregated portions of several of them with links to take you to the full article.

American Builders Quarterly Post
http://americanbuildersquarterly.com/2015/sunstone/

In the early 1900s, E. M. Statler began what would become one of the United States’ first major hotel networks. Through his namesake brand of accommodations, Statler introduced the en suite bathroom to the hotel industry, as well as the now-ubiquitous “do not disturb” sign.

Among the Statler properties still standing today is the Boston Park Plaza Hotel. Built in 1927, with a name change in 1976 when it was sold to the Irving M. Saunders family, it is a member of the Historic Hotels of America program and a Boston landmark.

The hotel’s entry has a new revolving door, a new canopy, and new finishes, and to help with the flow of lobby traffic, the check-in desk has been moved to an office space, creating extra room. The lobby bar on the first- floor has also been relocated, putting it front and center with a striking back wall that visitors will encounter immediately upon entry, and it’s complemented by artwork reflecting Boston’s present and past.

Return of the Phone Booth?

Union Doors Installs Phone Booths at Cambridge Innovation Center.

The Cambridge Innovation Center realized the need for privacy.

Sure there is no longer a need to make a call using a public pay phone, but the need for quiet space to make a cell phone call is in photo3 (1) demand.

For those millennial who have only seen phone booths in movies or the time traveling TARDIS from the long running BBC television program Dr Who will now have the opportunity to not only see one first hand but to use one at Cambridge Innovation Center.

It was CIC’s forward thinking on servicing a need to provide dedicated real estate for tenants, visiting vendors and staff to make a call with a modicum of privacy without having to duck into a conference room, go outdoors or find a corner in the waiting area. This effort by the CIC considerably cuts down on the disruptive nature a public call can have on others in the vicinity.

Perhaps, one of the many brilliant tech companies at CIC will be inspired to develop a form of time travel to go along with the fresh new booths.

Union Doors was brought in to install Horton manual folding doors for each phone booth at the CIC.

More about Cambridge Innovation Center:

The following was aggregated from the official CIC website. For more information about CIC please visit them by clicking the link below:

http://cic.us/

CIC started in 1999 with a vision and a simple idea: “Startups make the world much better. We can help them by setting up and managing their office for them so they can focus on their business.” We believed we could do that better than anyone else and we set out to prove it. Since then, more than 1400 companies have chosen CIC as their home and many have gone on to prove their value to the world as startups. More than $1.8B of venture capital has been invested in companies that were headquartered at CIC. We now house over 600 companies, most of them startups, and we haven’t stopped making CIC better every day.

Along the way, the entrepreneurs at CIC taught us something very powerful. If you’re an entrepreneur doing something that hasn’t been done before, who can teach you how to do it? Nobody. The best you can do is to learn what you can from fellow entrepreneurs, mentors, advisors and investors. This is what entrepreneurs at CIC have done over the years, and are doing extensively today. With hundreds of great entrepreneurs in one campus environment, there is no better place to build a fast-growing startup than CIC.
