Will T
Vaughan Constructions
Boswen installed eight impacts rated, heavy-duty gates for intensive use by trucks at the Linfox distribution centre in Kewdale, Perth. Gates were all cantilevered and were in a range of sizes from 6m to 16m in length. Bowen’s service was commendable, and the end product impressed both Vaughan staff and the clients beyond expectations.”
