Server Rooms

Data centres and server rooms

 

Our server room solutions focus on scalability, redundancy, and security, ensuring that businesses can expand their IT capabilities as needed without major infrastructure overhauls. From rack-mounted server installations to redundant power solutions, we ensure that businesses have a reliable, streamlined, and future-proofed server environment that meets their needs while minimising operational burden.

A server room is the nerve centre of an organisation’s IT infrastructure.

We design and construct high-performance server rooms that provide secure, climate-controlled, and optimally managed environments for data storage, networking, and system processing.

Room Construction

Adjustable depth configurations allow racks to accommodate different hardware sizes, ensuring compatibility with various servers, network switches, and power distribution units

For enhanced organisation and security, we implement lockable server cabinets with reinforced steel enclosures, protecting sensitive equipment from unauthorised access and physical damage. Our racks are designed with front and rear cable management features, optimising airflow while keeping power and data cables neatly arranged. Additionally, we deploy shock-resistant seismic-rated racks in facilities prone to vibrations or ground movement to protect critical IT infrastructure from physical disruption.

Fire Suppression

Standard water-based fire suppression systems are unsuitable for server rooms due to the risk of equipment damage and data loss.

Gas Suppression construction

Gas-based suppression systems work by either removing heat or reducing oxygen levels within the affected area, effectively extinguishing fires without harming sensitive electronic equipment.

 

Early smoke and fire detection are essential for minimising risks and ensuring rapid intervention. Multi-sensor detection technology, combining optical, heat, and ionisation sensors, improves accuracy and reduces false alarms caused by environmental factors such as dust or steam.

Prevents water damage and critical data loss

Aspirating Smoke Detection (ASD) systems provide early fire detection by continuously sampling the air for microscopic smoke particles. These systems offer ultra-fast response times, allowing fire suppression mechanisms to be activated before flames become visible.

Climate Control

Maintaining a stable temperature and humidity level is crucial to ensuring the longevity and efficiency of IT hardware. Precision air conditioning (PAC) systems specifically designed for server rooms, offering continuous temperature regulation with real-time monitoring. Hot aisle and cold aisle containment strategies are implemented to direct airflow efficiently, reducing energy consumption while preventing overheating.

 

For added efficiency, we integrate smart environmental sensors that adjust cooling output based on real-time temperature and humidity fluctuations, minimising energy waste while ensuring optimal thermal management.

RACKING

Proper server racking is essential to maximising space, ensuring airflow efficiency, and simplifying maintenance within a server room. Industry-standard 19-inch server racks, available in open-frame, enclosed, and wall-mounted designs to suit different operational needs. Adjustable depth configurations allow racks to accommodate different hardware sizes, ensuring compatibility with various servers, network switches, and power distribution units (PDUs).

Cable Management

One of the key principles of server room design is structured cable management, which organises cables into logical pathways, reducing clutter whilst improving durability, reliability, EMC immunity, performance, and maintenance efficiency.

 

Colour-coded cable identification and labelling systems are implemented to streamline troubleshooting, reducing downtime and operational disruptions.
