A leading financial firm in London’s Square Mile needed a complete smart office fit-out on a new floor. GCL delivered a modern and practical workspace. We started with a blank canvas and then transformed it into an energy-efficient, high-performance office with advanced electrical and data systems.
The client wanted a space that was both functional and elegant. Their brief included the following:
Full CAT6 structured cabling for fast connectivity
Exposed ceilings with neat, hidden electrical fittings
Power to workstations from underfloor systems
Energy compliance according to Part L building rules
Lighting designed to match the architecture
Infrastructure to support rooftop HVAC systems
A futureproof design that could grow with the business
Because the deadline was tight, the client needed the space ready for a phased staff move-in.
GCL’s experienced team created a solution tailored to the client’s needs. Key features included:
Temporary 110v lighting and power to keep construction moving
Split-metered boards to monitor energy use in detail
Electrak modular underfloor busbars to supply workstations
Inline RCDs to improve workstation safety
Dimmable LED and architectural lighting for mood and flexibility
Wi-Fi cabling built into the network plan
External cabling to power rooftop HVAC units
Galvanised containment to match the exposed ceiling design
Moreover, all work was done in close collaboration with the main contractor, ensuring smooth installation with little disruption.
GCL finished the smart office fit-out on time and to the client’s requirements. As a result, the client gained:
A visually impressive and functional workspace
Smooth power and data distribution
Energy-efficient and compliant systems
Great coordination and updates throughout
No disruption to other building users
