## Summary

Kirklees Council has awarded a contract for the design and installation of a new fire escape staircase at 2-14 New Street, Huddersfield, in Yorkshire and the Humber. The project, which falls under the fire escape equipment and fire doors categories, will involve the removal of an existing fire escape and the installation of a new galvanised one, alongside various fire safety enhancements. This procurement process, completed through a restricted procedure, was in the award stage as of 19th December 2025. The awarded contract, valued at £120,237.57, is set to commence on 2nd March 2026 and conclude on 14th April 2026.

This tender represents a significant business growth opportunity for large-scale construction firms, particularly those specialising in fire safety equipment and structural installations. The project offers a chance for businesses with expertise in installation of metal structures, emergency lighting, and associated signage works to contribute significantly to fire safety upgrades in public infrastructure. Although unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSE), the contract was awarded to Walter West Builders Ltd, showcasing the scale of operation required to fulfil the project requirements effectively.
