PROJECT overview

Converting an underused basement car park into technical production, testing and warehouse space.

The client had partially enclosed basement car park space that was significantly underused. Glenside's task was to enclose additional car park area to enlarge the building's footprint, creating new warehouse space while converting former warehouse areas into technical production space.

THE CHALLENGE

A constrained, dated space that had to keep working around live operations

The undercroft area had varied floor levels and low head height in places, requiring careful design solutions.

Planning authority approval was required before construction of the enlarged footprint could begin.

Works were carried out in a complex phased sequence to allow client operations to continue throughout.

Glenside really come in and work with us as a team. They're not prescriptive, they listened to us and took on board our vision, and they showed us various options to manage our budget without hindering that vision. They consistently deliver the schedules and plans they say they're going to. We felt like they were part of our team, not a third-party contractor. I would strongly recommend them.
