North Tyneside Hospital Healthcare Project

Project Details

Client: Integrated Health Project
Location: Newcastle upon Tyne
Project Type: Healthcare
Project Value (approx): £272k
Year Completed: 2025

Our most recent project was in Rake Lane, Newcastle. We worked alongside the Integrated Health Project on their refurbishment of the hospital. This project included a variety of new furniture for the washrooms, including Helmsman lockers, cubicles, bench seating, integrated plumbing systems (IPS) and vanity units.

The client selected Laminate Lockers and Welled Laminate Lockers are manufactured with a durable mild steel carcass paired with solid grade laminate doors. In addition, we supplied mesh lockers constructed entirely from mild steel, including both the body and doors. The specification of the lockers was 1775mm high, with 175mm added at the rear due to the sloping top, 300mm wide and 450mm deep.

The Welled lockers are ideal for high-traffic environments, offering full-height storage along with integrated bench seating at the front. This design allows employees to conveniently store their belongings and sit while changing or preparing for their shift. For this project, clients requested lockers in 2 colours, laminate doors in Citron Green, and Grey Cloud for the end panels to match the powder-coated metal body in Ice.

The lockers were manufactured with a laminate sloping top, which is perfect for preventing the build-up of dust and clutter collection, as well as making it easier to clean, especially in hygiene-sensitive areas where regular deep cleaning is required. Lockers were completed with circle numbering above the locks, along with cam locks.

The washroom design featured 6 Front Line Cubicles for restrooms, along with 6 Full Height (Ceiling-to-Floor) Cubicles and 10 changing rooms with Ceiling-to-Floor Cubicles and bench seating, all in American Oak from our standard colour chart. Also included in the project were sets of IPS (Integrated Plumbing System) Panels and a Solid Grade Laminate and Corian Vanity units. The combination of Citron Green and Mountain Oak creates a fresh, contemporary atmosphere with a warm, natural touch.

It was a great pleasure to work with Integrated Health Projects. If you are working on a project that requires washroom products, lockers and cubicles, bench seating, IPS and vanity units, give us a call today on 01284 727 626 or get a quote here.

Police Charging Lockers

Project Overview

Helmsman won an exciting Leicestershire Police project for charging lockers with bespoke specifications. Leicestershire Police is the territorial Police force responsible for policing Leicestershire and Rutland areas in England.

For this project, we had to balance two sets of needs. We needed to create an ideal storage solution for technological equipment and to deliver something stylish and space-saving. Our team recommended a few options, but being able to provide a bespoke powered solution was most important.

Helmsman manufactured, supplied and delivered bespoke powered lockers to the headquarter office in Enderby for the frontline staff. Above all, these lockers serve the purpose of storing technological devices such as laptops and airwave radios. Security has been the key to this project. A request of 12 compartments per locker meant lockers could hold more items within the small space.

Inside each compartment, there are 2 UK sockets with double USB portals on each side. Each locker compartment has a four-number combination lock for protection. Every locker has a ‘D’ door which can open all locker compartments with one master key, only accessible for supervisors who may need to reset locks for a single locker compartment. The ON/OFF switch is located at the top of each locker in the sloping top, saving electricity and keeping clear of clutter. Sizes are 1800mm high by 450mm wide and 500mm deep, been powder coated in standard colours of ‘ice’ and ‘royale’ for the doors. These doors have bespoke square perforations specifically requested by Leicestershire Police. In addition, they are easy to use and plug into a standard wall socket.

Emergency service personnel in mind, Police lockers provide robust, practical storage solutions. We manufacture a variety of Police lockers for uniforms, kits and other equipment.
