One of the fastest-growing parts of Metric’s business is supplying and installing furniture and equipment for the educational sector.
This is the first in a series of blog articles that look at some of the projects Metric has successfully completed for schools in London and the south east of England.
So why do schools choose Metric?
As a family-run business with over 42 years of experience, they have confidence in our ability to supply the best choice of educational furniture and equipment solutions as well as the best value for money.
We build relationships with schools and we recognise the pressure administrators face in stretching their budgets to the maximum. By maintaining regular dialogue with school clients, we can respond proactively and responsibly to their requirements. A good example is a local school that needed to refurnish the school office. Rather than buy new, more expensive office desks, office chairs and office storage systems, Metric was able to save the school money by offering the headteacher a choice from its secondhand furniture store. The solution we delivered met the school’s requirements perfectly and helped to retain more vital £’s within their budget.
At Metric, schools find a team that are willing to work with them to find the most viable and cost efficient solution for every enquiry. We give sensible advice that schools value and that enables us to build long-term working partnerships.
Also, when schools work with Metric, they soon realise we remove the need to work with a series of suppliers. We can fit-out entire classrooms, canteens, sports halls, staff rooms, science labs … you name it, we’ve done it. We’ve even been known to deliver the occasional skeleton for the biology lab!
We’ve got thousands of educational furniture products to choose from, including desks and chairs for teachers and pupils, space saving storage systems, library systems … and much more. Plus, we supply and install flooring, ceilings, comms systems and AVC equipment.
Most importantly, we don’t charge for installation – and we’ll remove old, unwanted furniture at no extra cost.
Finally, all products are delivered and installed by our own in-house team of technicians that are all CRB-approved.
