“There was such a huge risk in this build,” says host Peter Maddison.
“But it wasn’t as simple as just getting the link between the church and the new home right.”
A FLAME ZONE RATING DIDN'T STOP THIS BEAUTIFUL RENOVATION ON THE HAWKESBURY CHAPEL FROM PROCEEDING...
By installing Warrior FZ Bushfire Shutters, which are approved for at least 30 minutes fire protection (/30/) and meet requirements of AS3959, Simon and Lauren were able to meet the requirements of building in a flamezone.
With our compact headbox, and the shutters being able to span an opening up to 8 metres in width, our Warrior FZ Bushfire Shutters were easily concealed within the framework in the design stage of this truely grand design.
“The couple live in a bush fire area so they really had to make sure that the home was protected and as safe as possible. Basically Simon created a bunker, wrapped it in fire-proof material and then put the copper on the outside. That will then weather over time so the house won’t stand out – I think that was the right way to go.
