Solution
Lang+Fulton supplied 300sq/m of custom-sized panels and 20 sets of doors to secure and ventilate the street-front elevations of the electricity sub-stations. These were made to fit the structural openings with concealed ancillary steelwork.
Talia-100 steel louvred material was chosen for its vandal-resistant properties and was also impenetrable to any abuse from a foreign object.
2.8m high Italia-80 was also used in the car park as an internal visual screen separating vehicle access from a service road. In addition, 160m of 2.8m high Sterope grating panels were installed on the upper levels of the car park around plant areas and emergency exits.
