SPECIALIST JOINERY
S pecialist joinery firm, Dougan Contracts designed, fabricated and supplied feature slatted oak ceilings for the Macmillan Unit project at Ulster Hospital, Dundonald. Design of the ceilings had to factor in the need to keep the weight of the overall structure down and had to allow for access to M+E and ventilation services above the installation. All products were also upgraded with a fire-retardant application. Established in 1986, Dougan Contracts is a people-centred specialist joinery company based in Bangor, County Down. Using traditional working processes, hard graft and state-of-the-art machinery, the talented team is equipped for every challenge. This second-generation family, business has built upon a legacy of specialist joinery started by Billy Dougan from humble beginnings in the family garage. Commenting on the Macmillan unit,
Director, Ryan Dougan said, “We are very proud to have worked alongside a great team on a project that is helping the people of Northern Ireland with a new state-of-the-art chemotherapy facility.”
