Equipment Closet - Borel

Project Status: Available

Project Overview

With the last school-wide remodeling taking place in 2000, certain aspects of Borel's campus require updates to meet the school's evolving needs. One area of concern is the equipment shed, which is accessed daily during recess by student volunteers. These volunteers set up the table and chairs (as shown in Exhibit A) in front of the closet, allowing other students to borrow them using a sign-up sheet. Additionally, the school custodian uses the equipment shed daily to store and access cleaning supplies and materials.

As shown in Exhibit B, the metal grille sliding door does not fully close due to the obstruction caused by the lock and chain. This sliding door needs to be replaced with one that allows for a full, secure closure, complete with a functioning lock.

Furthermore, the equipment closet requires a new storage cabinet unit to replace the one shown in Exhibit A. This cabinet will be used to organize and store the custodian's supplies and equipment. The new unit must be designed to accommodate the other pieces of furniture in the equipment shed, ensuring there is sufficient space for everything. The shelves must be sturdy enough to support heavy weights, as they will be used to hold various janitorial supplies.
