AFL Max Melbourne
Client

AFL Max is an entertainment facility combining sport, fun and learning in a state-of-the-art environment for families, schools and community groups.
The Melbourne venue features an indoor footy field, aerial play zones, interactive screens, party spaces and skill-testing attractions designed to engage and excite visitors of all ages.

One of Australia’s oldest and most respected commercial builders, with over 120 years of experience delivering design-and-construct solutions across large-scale commercial and recreational projects. Ahrens oversaw the full construction delivery of the AFL Max Melbourne facility, coordinating multidisciplinary trades and specialist suppliers to meet the project’s exacting standards.

Larnec was proud to be selected as the personal access door supplier for this high-profile commercial build — a choice driven by our ability to deliver fit-for-purpose door solutions tailored to the facility’s unique design and structural requirements.
Scope of Supply:
- Custom-engineered personal access doors designed to integrate seamlessly with a variety of wall systems across the venue
- Specification and provision of custom hardware and accessories to meet operational needs, safety standards and aesthetic expectations
- Collaboration with Ahrens’ project and site teams to ensure timely delivery and installation coordination
Our solutions provided robust performance and flexibility across different structural zones of the facility, ensuring access, security and durability without compromising build quality
