Debenhams Oxford Street refurb
JUNE 2021
LONDON - At the end of 2020, worldwide known Debenhams announced it would be liquidated. Online retailer Boohoo relaunched the brand and website but closed down Debenhams stores, meaning the loss of up to 12.000 jobs. Right now a brand new concept of retail and office spaces is being created on the premises of the former flagship store in Oxford Street London.
AFIXFAST SYSTEM SCAFFOLD
In order to establish a new retail and office concept internal and external scaffolding is to be erected. One of AFIX GROUP UK's valued customers was awarded the scaffolding package for the refurb. The AFIXFAST system, well known for its strong, safe and easy scaffolding handling properties, is the right choice for this renovation project.
SCAFFOLD & CRASH DECK
Right now the internal scaffolding has been erected at a height of 23m, 40m long with 2m decked lifts with ladder decks installed for easy access. A crash deck has also been installed, which is 17 x 3 m and 5 m high to help facilitate the removal of the Debenhams escalator stairs. The external scaffolding will be erected at a later date. This is a very nice project in the very heart of London and one that AFIX Group UK is happy to be involved in.
