Islington Gates Balcony Refurbishment
Islington Gates, a £25 million mixed-use development in Birmingham, was among the first in the UK to undergo critical remediation following the Grenfell fire. Built in 2004/05, the project comprises 141 apartments and commercial units, located at Farmers Lock along the Birmingham and Fazeley Canal. As part of the fire safety upgrades, the original wooden decking was replaced to meet stringent new regulations, ensuring enhanced safety for residents. The remediation works not only improved fire resistance but also revitalized the external spaces, providing a secure and updated environment for the building’s occupants.
