This encompassed a significant portion of the interior fit-out, requiring precision carpentry and meticulous attention to detail.

Koolie Building and Construction provided expert carpentry for Bert Newton Retirement Village, enhancing function and aesthetics

Koolie Building and Construction

Koolie Building and Construction contributed their carpentry expertise to enhance both the functionality and aesthetics of the Bert Newton Retirement Village. Over a span of approximately three years, Koolie’s team provided a complete carpentry supply and installation package that included internal doors, sliders, fire doors, arcade joinery, and various fixtures such as skirting, architraves, and dado rails.

“Our focus was on providing a reliable and high-quality carpentry solution that would stand up to the unique demands of a retirement community,” said Hayden Johnson, Company Director of Koolie Building and Construction.

A key challenge arose toward the end of the project when limited on-site storage became an issue. To address this, Koolie leveraged their Lilydale warehouse, where doors and architraves were prepped, precut, and stored until installation. “By preparing materials offsite, we streamlined the process and reduced on-site waste and dust, which also meant fewer exclusion zones were needed,” said Johnson.

Koolie also implemented an innovative approach to the carpentry fix process, temporarily hanging doors with reusable painted hinges to allow painters to spray apartments freely. “This system saved the painters a lot of time, and our final product was neat and tidy,” Johnson said. For durability, Koolie painted the tops and bottoms of doors before installation, ensuring immediate sealing against wear and moisture.

Utilising their in-house Biesse Rover A 5 Axis CNC Router, Koolie manufactured many of the village’s custom doors, including lightweight, semi-solid doors designed to withstand frequent use.

“Our ability to make doors to order and machine custom timber products allowed us to meet Ryman’s exact specifications,” said Johnson.

This meticulous craftsmanship underscores Koolie’s dedication to quality and innovative solutions that enhance the longevity and aesthetics of the Bert Newton Retirement Village.
