Back in May 2020, Cordery Build approached us to provide a fixed X-ray screen for a refurbishment project at Brentford Riverside Hospital. With time against them, they needed the X-ray screen to be easy to build and delivered on time.
The specifications and requirements
Specification
Code 5, 2.24mmPb shielded frameless X-ray screen with a 1100mm main panel, 800mm wing, to a height of 2000mm
Finish
The X-ray screen needed to be in a white laminate to match the interior of the newly refurbished X-ray room at Brentford Riverside Hospital.
Fitting & Assembly
The fixed X-ray screen also needed to be easy to transport and assemble to fit in with their tight schedule.
Additional Items
Brentford Riverside Hospital required a worktop, shelf and plinth for the X-ray screen.
The challenge
Cordery Build was one of the first contractors to install our new fixed X-ray screen without having any previous experience.
With a tight deadline to consider, they needed the assembly to be stress-free and quick. As the X-ray room was being completely refurbished, we also had to manufacture the bespoke X-ray screen based on the drawings and layout of the room.
The solution
To help make the installation of the fixed X-ray screen as smooth as possible, we provided an instruction manual for their team to follow. This enabled them to assemble it without causing any delays or needing to call for further assistance.
The screen was supplied with a worktop, shelf and plinth for the radiographers at Brentford Riverside Hospital to house their computers and other equipment. It was manufactured to the latest NHS HTM and infection control standards for complete peace of mind and custom-built to suit the exact dimensions of the space it would be homed in.
As requested, the fixed X-ray screen was finished in a beautiful white laminate – fitting in perfectly with the modern and professional interior design Cordery Build created. We didn’t just want the X-ray screen to serve a purpose, we wanted it to add to the design and seamlessly fit into the room without acting as an obstacle.

I can confirm that Raybloc supplied an X-ray screen for Brentford Riverside Clinic’s refurbishment. The screens were supplied on time and with the appropriate manuals and paperwork for our qualified joiners to assemble and fit on-site.
