McGill has been awarded a facilities contract to deliver full electrical and security works at a new care village development for Fife Council.
The award marks a continuation of the 25-year relationship between the two organisations.
The innovative Methil Care Village, which has been in planning for the last few years, is on the site of the former Kirkland High School site on Methilhaven Road. It includes a two-storey, 36-bedroom residential care home, specific needs housing and a new early years centre.
The contract, worth around £500,000, will see the Dundee-based firm complete a range of electrical and specialist security installations during the next 12 months. This will include fire alarms, nurse and warden call systems, induction loop, CCTV and access controls.
Billy Robertson, McGill’s fire and security manager, said: “The Methil Care Village is a flagship development and demonstrates the commitment of Fife Council to invest in new and innovative projects. My team is excited to get started and play their part, which will see us working right across the sheltered housing development complex.”
McGill has installed and maintained warden call systems across Scotland and provided day-to-day repairs of door-entry systems and smoke detectors in sheltered housing properties.
