THE PROJECTS

Crossfire  was entrusted with the critical task of enhancing fire safety at the White Oaks Centre, a live rehabilitation facility in Donegal. Our comprehensive scope of works included:

  • Installation of cavity barriers within the attic void.
  • Installation of fire doors within the attic void.
  • Installation of fire-rated partitions within the attic void.
  • Installation of fire stopping within the attic void to service penetrations and linear gap seals at the head of the wall.
  • Installation of new fire doors throughout the building.
  • Opening of ceilings, installation of fire stopping, and reinstatement of ceilings.

As these works were being carried out within  a live operating rehab centre, Crossfire encountered some challenges, however were able to adapt and overcome these challenges. 

1. Working within a Live Rehab Centre: Operating within a live rehab centre required meticulous planning and unparalleled expertise. Crossfire’s team executed a phased approach, ensuring minimal disruption to residents and staff. Our commitment to excellence meant that work areas were expertly isolated, and noise and dust were meticulously controlled.

2. Working in a Live Building: Ensuring the safety and comfort of the building’s occupants was our top priority. Crossfire’s team adhered to the highest safety protocols, maintaining clear communication with the centre’s management and staff to schedule work during optimal times, showcasing our dedication to client satisfaction.

3. Working in an Operational Building: Maintaining the building’s functionality while enhancing its safety required flexibility and responsiveness. Crossfire’s team worked hand-in-hand with the centre’s staff, ensuring critical areas remained accessible and emergency exits were always clear, demonstrating our commitment to operational excellence.

4. Working within the Attic Roof Space: The confined and challenging attic spaces were no match for Crossfire’s experienced team. Utilizing specialized equipment and techniques, we safely and effectively installed the necessary fire safety measures, proving once again why we are the best in the business.

Crossfire’s proactive and innovative approach was the cornerstone of this project’s success. This included:

  • Detailed Planning: Our comprehensive planning sessions anticipated potential issues and developed strategies to address them, ensuring seamless execution.
  • Clear Communication: Regular updates and meetings with the White Oaks Centre kept all stakeholders informed and any concerns promptly addressed, highlighting our transparency and reliability.
  • Flexibility: Our team remained adaptable, adjusting schedules and methods as needed to accommodate the centre’s operations, showcasing our commitment to client needs.

All works were installed in strict accordance with the manufacturer’s tested details, ensuring the highest standards of fire safety. Crossfire’s state-of-the-art mobile recording app was utilized to tag, record, and mark up all works, providing full traceability. This system allowed for real-time updates and ensured that all installations were documented and easily accessible for future reference.
