Side entry slide out step

A manually operated slide out step assembly rated to 200kg was sourced and fitted to the main side entry door way to avoid the use of temporary plastic steps.





Bathroom Wall / Door

In order to finish our "Hugo" bathroom module, we are utilising an inner 3mm skin of Gunnersens WallArt in gloss white which is an alternative to the commonly used Laminex Aquapanel and an outer skin of Gunnersens 3mm lightweight ply/vinyl in a matt white finish,
As the bathroom door was designed for a 26mm frame, a 20mm ply/styrofoam sandwich was created in between both panels.
