Kurrawa Surf Life Saving Club, QLD

After years of planning, the construction of the new Kurrawa Surf Life Saving Club is now completed. The $15 million redevelopment project managed by construction experts Paynter Dixon has already been praised as a world class venue representing architectural excellence.

The facility will more adequately meet the needs of the Surf Club in their lifesaving duties as well as provide a family friendly establishment that both residents and visitors can enjoy. Featuring an expansive dining area and bar with 230 degree views, it is also set to be one of the major hospitality sites for the 2018 Commonwealth Games.

Safetyline Jalousie louvre windows were selected by Architectural firm “Arkhefield” to ventilate the venue’s new gaming area in compliance with relevant smoking laws. 80% free flow air was the minimum requirement which Safetyline Jalousie were easily able to accommodate. To ensure that the louvres retain an uninterrupted flow of air at all times, they are fitted with detachable winder mechanisms. Staff members are able to open and lock the louvres in place while the area is occupied and then close them of an evening so that the building is air and water tight outside of business hours.

Overlooking Broadbeach, the louvres are installed on the second level and meet the regulations for fall prevention and are balustrade compliant. The sturdy design allows the louvres to be open at all times to maximize airflow whilst also maintaining a safe and secure environment for patrons.

Safetyline Jalousie louvre windows are available in any powder coat or anodized finish. Considering the close proximity to salt water, the architect selected a high performance Duratec powder coat which provides a guaranteed hard wearing and serviceable finish as well as excellent colour retention.

The Kurrawa Surf Life Saving Club will service the Gold Coast well after the Commonwealth Games. Safetyline Jalousie’s durable design will assist in ensuring that the facility retains its quality for many years to come.
