Life Safety Upgrade For Paddington Bear Experience, County Hall, London South Bank

The client had a requirement to ventilate the basement area as part of the fire strategy, however due to the importance of the building and its listing the existing critical windows were not permitted to be replaced, therefore we had to design a solution that allowed the existing sash’s to be removed (and replaced at a later date if required) and replaced with Smoke vents certified to EN 12101-2. Bespoke units were designed to allow simple integration with the existing frames and supplied and installed along with a controls system that integrated in to the buildings fire detection and alarm system all to allow for the grand opening.
