Village Hall Installation of Fiberglass Doors Request for Proposals

The Village of Northbrook is soliciting sealed proposals for the removal and replacement of two existing wooden doors at Village Hall, located at 1225 Cedar Lane, Northbrook, Illinois. The project requires the installation of fiberglass doors featuring a woodgrain finish and custom arched aluminum frames, including all necessary hardware. The selected contractor must ensure the work is completed in a professional manner, minimizing disruption to the facility, with the full installation finalized within 48 hours of initiation. All materials must meet specific ASTM standards for aluminum and fiberglass, and the manufacturer is required to have at least 25 years of experience and a documented quality management system. Proposals must be submitted in person or by mail to the Department of Public Works by October 28, 2025, at 10:00 a.m. Central Time.

The contract term extends through April 30, 2026, and is subject to funding approval by the Village Board. Key requirements include compliance with the Illinois Prevailing Wage Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, and the Illinois Human Rights Act. The Village reserves the right to terminate the contract for convenience with 30 days' written notice.
