Revolving Doors for Silverstone Heritage Experience

,

EA Group are pleased to announce that we have won the order for a large revolving door at this new venue under construction at the famous Silverstone Race Track.

On Wednesday 7th March 2018, the Silverstone project was visited by His Royal Highness Prince Harry who officially marked the start of the construction programme. In his capacity as Royal patron of The Silverstone Experience, Prince Harry launched the project by switching the Silverstone start lights from red to green.

There were Formula1 cars on display to represent Silverstone’s first race in 1948, and also this year’s race in 2018 which marks Silverstone’s 70th anniversary.

The Silverstone Experience Centre, supported by a £9.1m grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund, is expected to attract over 500,000 visitors a year and will bring to life the history of Silverstone and British motor sport through the creation of a dynamic, interactive and educational visitor experience.

The recently commenced works include the full refurbishment of an existing World War II aircraft hangar alongside the construction of a new two storey building to create an immersive experience incorporating Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths.

The facilities will accommodate the Silverstone motorsport exhibition alongside the British Racing Drivers’ Club archive, educational facilities, café, atrium and reading room.
