HUDSON FIRE STATION 1 - GARAGE DOOR REPLACEMENT

The Town of Hudson, Massachusetts, is soliciting bids for the removal and replacement of two apparatus bay garage doors and their associated electric door operators at Fire Station 1, located at 1 Washington Street. The project requires a qualified contractor to provide all labor, materials, equipment, supervision, and permitting necessary to install two commercial-grade insulated doors measuring 16'-10" wide by 10'-0" high. To maintain the architectural character of the historic 1895 building, the doors must feature a Shaker-style panel design with top glass sections, approximately 2-inch-thick insulation, and a Hunter Green finish. All work, including final testing and acceptance, must be completed by December 1, 2026. Proposals must be submitted via email to Fire Chief Jamie Desautels by October 7, 2026, at 12:00 PM. Bidders are required to provide a total project cost with itemized breakdowns for doors and hardware, operators, electrical work, and removal and disposal costs. Additionally, submissions must include estimated project duration, manufacturer and warranty information, and confirmation that the proposed materials meet the historic appearance requirements. The selected contractor must ensure that emergency response routes remain unobstructed, protect the surrounding sidewalk and historic masonry, and comply with all applicable Massachusetts electrical codes and local regulations.
