Avion Court
Avion Court, Crawley
Avion Court is a brand new development made up of 137 contemporary residential units and located in Crawley with close proximity to Gatwick Airport.
This former 1970s office tower has undergone an extensive transformation and benefits from secured on-site parking, concierge service, bike storage and improved landscaping. The property will include a shared amenity space with the aim of giving enjoyable social spaces and enhanced facilities for the residents.
The site is within walking distance to Crawley Town shopping centre and with excellent connections to local overground and bus services. The development is well positioned opposite the Crawley Leisure Park on London road, which features a multi-screen cinema, a health club, a bowling alley and several restaurants. Avion Court forms part of Interland Group’s Private Rental offering and is due for completion in late Spring 2020.
Frameclad designed the SFS to sit outside of the building line using an oversail – continuous walling system. By using specialised bracket system the inconsistencies in the existing façade were overcome to provide a true building line to receive subsequent façade treatments.

Case Studies
Steel Over Timber
A superior alternative to a timber frame. The developer needed an alternative to timber frame to prevent costly delays and increased on-site costs, light steel framing was the solution.
Lighter, quicker and more stable LSF delivered these apartments on time and to budget whilst exceeding the client’s requirements
Iceland
Frameclad’s manufacturing capabilities came into there own when they were asked to produce a separating wall in a distribution warehouse. SFS studs were required to reach a height of 13.8m which proved a challenge but were produced and delivered successfully to a very satisfied client.
