Delivering safety and style with our fire rated glass partitions and doors at Lucent

Landsec’s new mixed-use scheme at 1 Sherwood Street has undergone a remarkable transformation, thanks to the collaboration between us, architects Fletcher Priest, and main contractor Wates Construction. Set just behind the famous Piccadilly lights, project Lucent has turned the unused area into flexible workspaces and offices as well as shops and apartments. This high-profile development is set over seven floors with a focus on fire protection and striking aesthetic design on each. Our cutting-edge fire rated glass partitions were seamlessly integrated into the seven floors of this innovative project. The installation of fire rated glass partitions and doors not only offers enhanced fire protection but also creates a safe and comfortable environment that allows users to enjoy Lucent with peace of mind.
