Installation & commissioning
Our own team positions, levels, bays and fits out racks and containment, then checks the work against the drawing.
Racks and containment are only as good as their installation. A row that is not level will not take a straight containment roof, and one missing seal or blanking panel undoes the airflow work.
Our installers work for the company that made the parts, so problems on site are fixed by people who know the product, without a back-and-forth between supplier and contractor. For passive infrastructure, commissioning means proving the installation matches the drawing and works as intended: every rack level and fixed, doors closing and locking, containment sealed.
What it covers
- Delivery & positioning
- Delivery coordinated with the site, and racks moved to position along the route agreed in the survey.
- Levelling & baying
- Racks set out on the floor-tile grid, levelled, and joined into straight rows.
- Fixing
- Racks anchored to the floor or to plinths where the design calls for it.
- Fit-out
- Doors, side panels, cable managers, shelves, blanking panels and PDU mounting fitted to the drawing.
- Containment assembly
- Frames, end doors, roof panels and seals assembled and adjusted across the row.
- Checks & snagging
- Alignment, door and lock operation, and containment seals checked against the approved drawing, with snags closed before handover.

Questions
Can you install while the room is live?
Yes, with the work planned with your facility team: agreed working hours, permits, dust control and protection for running equipment. The survey records these constraints so the installation method suits them.
Who do we call if something is wrong after handover?
The same team. Because we made and installed the parts, there is one point of contact for both product and workmanship.
