Project Analysis
Brighton University has more than 21,000 students enrolled and has five campuses in Southern UK. The Brighton campus, where the Alufire products were installed, Falmer campus, is featuring magnificent views and big open spaces.
One of Alufire’s most challenging installations
The Solution
Almost 10 tonnes of Alufire products were used on this project. And what made this particular project challenging, was that our Vision Line partitions couldn’t fit through the doors in order to get the products onto the upper floors. Thus, special cranes were used, in order to lift the glass panes onto the upper floors and install them.
Moreover, due to the certified 1000N/m of force that our partitions can withstand, the hand railing was uninstalled on the edges of the floors that our partitions were installed.
