Featured Data Centre Project
Client: Confidential Data Centre Client
Project Value: £137,000
Project Location: Saunderton, Buckinghamshire
Length of project partnership: 2 months
Project Brief:
A data centre client required a secure and reliable external door package for the development of a major, 50-acre data centre campus in Saunderton, Buckinghamshire. The project covered multiple facilities across a large data centre campus and required robust personnel and service access solutions capable of supporting the security, durability and operational requirements of a major data centre campus.
Solution:
Working alongside TSL and Ashton Smith Architects, Tekta completed the installation of:
- 36 Traffidor Pass Hinge Doors
- 3 Rollashield Steelroll Roller Shutters
The combination of personnel doors and roller shutter doors provided secure, durable access for personnel and external service areas across the campus. Close coordination with the wider construction team ensured the door package was integrated with the development and completed on-schedule within the two-month programme.
FAQs about Data Centre Door Solutions
What types of industrial door systems are suitable for data centre facilities?
Data centre facilities can require a combination of hinged steel doors, security doors, fire-rated doors, fire shutters, fire curtains and industrial access doors, depending on the requirements of each opening.
The right system will depend on factors including fire compartmentation, physical security, access control, traffic levels, acoustic performance, thermal performance and environmental separation.
Tekta supports project teams in specifying suitable door systems for areas including server halls, plant rooms, personnel entrances, service areas and external access points.
What are the main standards for industrial doors for data centres?
The standards that apply to a data centre door depend on the type of door, how it operates and the performance required. For industrial door systems, key standards can include BS EN 13241 for product safety and performance, BS EN 12453 for the safe operation of powered doors and BS EN 12604 for mechanical safety requirements.
For more information about data centre door requirements, read our article on Internal and External Door Considerations for UK Data Centres.
What fire-rated doors are required for data centre fire compartmentation?
The required fire-rated door system depends on the building’s fire strategy, compartment boundaries and the level of fire resistance and smoke control required at each opening.
Depending on the application, a data centre may require certified fire doors, shutters, curtains or sectional doors with the appropriate integrity, insulation and smoke-control performance. Tekta can support the specification of suitable systems in line with the project fire strategy, required certification and wider building specification.
Architects and specifiers can also use Modus, Tekta’s industrial door specification portal, to help develop and coordinate door schedules and specifications across the project.
Can industrial doors integrate with existing security and building management systems?
Yes. Industrial and personnel door systems can be specified to integrate with access control, fire alarms and building management systems, depending on the door type and operational requirements of the data centre facility.
How do you specify compliant ironmongery for data centre door systems?
Ironmongery should be specified as part of the complete door system for data centre facilities, taking account of its fire, security, escape and access-control requirements.
Hinges, locks, panic hardware, door closers and other hardware need to be fully compatible with the selected door system, tested as a complete assembly and compliant with project specifications and certification requirements.Tekta provides ironmongery specification support to help project teams coordinate hardware requirements with the wider door specification.
Architects and specifiers can also use Modus, Tekta’s industrial door specification portal, to develop coordinated door and ironmongery schedules across the project.
Can existing industrial doors in data centres be repaired or replaced?
Yes. Existing industrial and personnel doors can be inspected to establish their condition, safety, compliance and ongoing serviceability.
Depending on the condition of the doorset and the availability of compatible parts, Tekta can provide repairs, component replacement or complete door replacement. This can help data centre operators maintain safe and reliable access while reducing unnecessary disruption and downtime.
Can Tekta help ensure data centre door specifications meet UK compliance requirements?
Yes. Tekta provides technical guidance, product documentation, door and ironmongery specification support to help project teams develop compliant door packages for data centre facilities.
Requirements are considered alongside applicable Building Regulations, fire-safety requirements, relevant product and safety standards, the project fire strategy and site-specific operational requirements. Tekta can support architects, specifiers and contractors from early specification through to coordinated project delivery.
Architects and specifiers can also use Modus, Tekta’s industrial door specification portal, which guides users through a structured specification process and helps prevent non-compliant door configurations from being added to project schedules.
How can data centre door specification and project delivery be simplified?
Data centre door specification can be simplified by working with a single specialist partner, such as Tekta, that provides specification support, compliant door systems, ironmongery expertise, supply, installation and ongoing maintenance to reduce project risk and streamline delivery.
