Hospital South Jutland

Year built: 2020
Location: Aabenraa
Construction company: 5e byg

Jesper Kidholm Lund from our long-time partner 5E Byg contacted Alux back in 2018 to separate the existing hospital from the new part of the building.

We were chosen as a supplier based on our extensive expertise with similar tasks and 5E Byg's good experience from previous projects that have lived up to both quality and service.

Jonas Madsen, Project Manager 5e Build:

"The only company we knew of that could deliver such a large Fire shutter was Alux."

A Fire shutter of this magnitude requires a lot of preparation. In connection with the installation, Alux first of all had to consult with Cowi regarding the calculation of the weight of the floor, as it required two lifts and a truck - a total weight of about 10 tons - to hoist up such a large blind. As this was a bit of a stretch, we had to do what we do best and develop a custom solution to get the blind installed. With four pulleys and an accurately calculated pull-out value, we were able to hoist the blind up and rotate it into position between the two steel columns, where it could be installed by our own trained fitters.

The blind is only used in the event of a fire and is therefore connected to an ABA system, which ensures that the blind is lowered.

Jonas Madsen, Project Manager 5e Build:

"We are very satisfied with Alux in 5E construction, definitely something we would recommend to others."
