Working with a valued client, Metador designed and manufactured internal fire-rated steel doorsets for a high-profile London data centre. The solution was engineered to maintain effective fire compartmentation, meet precise dimensional requirements, and comply fully with the site’s stringent safety and operational standards.
Data Centre Project Overview
Telehouse London is home to Europe’s first carrier-neutral colocation facility and a key hub for the London Internet Exchange—forming a critical part of the global internet infrastructure.
