Service Integration - Service Bulkheads

Bulkheads are a common means of visually and physically linking one level of an interior to another. This traversing between levels is usually from a ceiling to a floor-plate immediately above. Our metal bulkhead systems comprise a series of panels in a variety of styles, shapes and finishes.

Summary

Metal bulkheads are a durable, hard wearing and versatile means of linking ceilings to other building elements.

• Can incorporate all service functions including lighting, air extraction and so on
• Prefabricated offsite allowing for lower installation costs compared to traditional methods
• Can reduce site wastage when compared to wet trades
• Provides considered design features whilst maintaining continuity with the ceiling finish

Access

Service bulkheads allow complete access throughout a building as desired. They can be designed to integrate any services such as lighting, CCTV, signage, sprinklers and smoke detectors.

System Weight

Service bulkhead systems will vary in weight, depending on specification and project requirements. Bulkheads incorporating lighting and other electrical services will have significantly higher loads.
