McDonalds selects The Ground Screw Centre
Explore how we supported McDonald’s and Butterfield Signs in an extensive roll out of digital menus and height restriction frames across 350 stores spanning England, Wales, Scotland, Ireland, and Northern Ireland. Our team was tasked with providing an innovative, clean, and low-impact foundation alternative to conventional concrete pads to ensure their drive-thru lanes remained operational.
Facing the unique challenges posed by McDonald’s drive-thru operations, we introduced a Dual Ground Screw and adjustable steel sub-rails, completing each installation within one hour, allowing us to complete up to 6 restaurants per day with 3 teams.
