StayCity Manchester

The Brief

StayCity Aparthotels are known for their stylish spaces, and their Manchester location needed a little refresh. The doors – all 276 of them, including 186 bedroom doors, 34 storage doors, and 56 vision panel corridor doors – were functional but lacked that modern touch. The big challenge? These doors spanned seven floors, and the project had to fit smoothly into StayCity’s ongoing fit-out project.

The Consultation

We knew exactly what StayCity needed: interior vinyl wrapping! It’s a fantastic way to give doors a stylish upgrade without a huge hassle. Plus, it’s quick and wouldn’t disrupt the fit-out already underway. We liased with StayCity about their current brand scheme they were matching and picked out some high-quality vinyl finishes that would complement their existing décor. We also talked about how our work would fit into the bigger picture of the fit-out project.

The Process

To make sure everything ran smoothly, we planned the project in stages, following the fit-out schedule floor by floor. This meant our expert installer could tackle each floor one at a time. The good news? One installer could completely transform an entire floor in just two days. There was one hurdle, though. The bedroom doors each had an electronic lock that needed to be carefully removed and put back on after the wrapping. We adjusted our plan and enlisted expert help to get those locks removed and reinstalled without slowing things down on the wrapping side.

The Transformation

The change was amazing! Plain bedroom and storage doors got a whole new lease on life with their on-brand vinyl wraps. The vision panel corridor doors also got a refresh, creating a modern and cohesive look throughout the entire building. Best of all, the vinyl wrapping fit right in with the ongoing fit-out, keeping things on track and minimising disruption.

The Outcome

StayCity Aparthotels Manchester couldn’t have been happier with the results. Vinyl door wrapping not only gave all their doors a modern upgrade that perfectly complemented the fit-out, but it also happened quickly and without any major disruptions. The result? A stylish and inviting atmosphere for their guests, reflecting StayCity’s commitment to providing comfortable and modern living spaces.

Client Advantages

Here’s why vinyl door wrapping was the perfect solution for StayCity:

  • Modern Look: The existing doors were transformed, creating a fresh and stylish look that fit StayCity’s brand.

  • Quick and Easy: Our team completed each floor quickly, minimising disruption to the overall project, and importantly, guests.

  • Seamless Integration: The vinyl door wrapping fit perfectly into the bigger refurbishment plan, ensuring a smooth completion.

Conclusion

This project at StayCity Aparthotels Manchester is a great example of how vinyl door wrapping is perfect for large-scale refurbishments. It shows how this technique can deliver a stylish upgrade, minimise disruption, and integrate with ongoing projects. We’re proud to have partnered with StayCity and helped them continue providing exceptional experiences for their guests.

Rosie Christie

Co-Founder

Older than the rest of the team, but not necessarily wiser as she’d like to think. There’s not an activity under the sun that she’s not been willing to have a go at, resulting in a mediocre ukulele player, part-time blogger, one-time skydiver and an unfinished sitcom script. There’s no room for shades of grey in this half of the partnership; everything comes down to looking after people who are important.

Organising tradesmen is not a task for the fainthearted. But recruiting the right tradesmen, ones who align with our values and are highly skilled at what they do makes for a much more harmonious project management process. Rosie’s role begins with a meeting to discuss your requirements, providing you with a quotation and carries through to the on-site management of your project.

Jade Mitchell

Co-Founder

She’s the only Southerner on the team, but we try not to hold it against her too much. If anything, we’ve enjoyed introducing Jade to a vast number of pie shops now she’s a Northern resident. Standing at a phenomenal 5’2”, she is living proof that big things come in small packages; a mix of infectious enthusiasm, laughter, loyalty, authority and uncanny Theresa May impressions.

Communicating with our clients is Jade’s forte. Being highly organised and placing customer satisfaction at the forefront of everything she does means that from enquiry to completion, your queries will be dealt with efficiently. For an in depth knowledge of the material specification of our interior film, Jade is your woman. She will put your mind at rest that not only do we install this product, but we make sure that is the most suitable for your needs.
