Work includes selective demolition of existing finishes necessary to accommodate the new construction, including removal and modification of existing walk-off matting, limited ceiling demolition for installation of a new storefront system, and restoration of all disturbed finishes. A new interior aluminum storefront with laminated glazing and an access-controlled pair of security doors will be installed to separate the public entrance from the secured elevator lobby. The work also includes installation of associated door hardware, an automatic door operator, and all required structural blocking and framing necessary to support the new storefront assembly.
