Quay project

Quay Project

Keyfix’s non-combustible cavity
tray system has been supplied and installed throughout Weston Homes’ Abbey Quay development in Barking.

Led by developer and architect Weston Homes, and brickwork contractor Lee Marley Brickwork, Abbey Quay is a £350 million new build project set in Barking’s new riverside quarter.

The beautifully designed urban village features a collection of stylish apartments, each with its own private terrace or balcony. Combining modern living with on-site shops, communal spaces, restaurants
and cafes, Abbey Quay offers a superb mix of the neighbourhood feel of a friendly village and the convenience of city life.

All finished to the highest possible build standards and designed with modern living in mind, the homes at Abbey Quay all feature open-plan living areas, stunning luxury bathrooms and innovative designer kitchens.

Collaborating with Weston Homes, Keyfix supplied 3,475m of its non-combustible cavity tray system (NCCT), 945 pre-formed corner units, and 7,722 non-combustible weeps to this project.

Weston Homes specified the Keyfix NCCT system as it is BBA certified and holds an A1 fire rating. In addition, Keyfix was also able to supply pre-formed corner units on this project, which helped save money as it sped up installation time on site.
