Senior Estimator

You'll take a project's floor plans, door schedules, and Fire Life Safety (FLS) drawings, and translate them into a preliminary hardware schedule — a detailed, technical exercise that sits at the intersection of architecture, life safety, and precision documentation. You'll then produce the final schedule using our in-house software. What you'll be doing: Reading floor plans to identify and locate every door, and interpreting door schedules to understand each door's parameters Reading FLS drawings to identify escape routes and understanding how FLS requirements shape the hardware specification for each door on that route Cross-referencing floor plans, door schedules, and FLS data to build accurate, preliminary hardware (ironmongery) schedules Entering finalized data into our bespoke software to generate project hardware schedules
