Frequently Asked Questions
How do we ensure our buildings are secure from break-ins, especially in isolated suburban or mine site locations?
Our buildings can be fitted with stainless steel mesh security screens (similar to CrimSafe), using tamper-proof screws for enhanced protection. Steel doors come as standard, and we also offer additional door security options as needed. Service bay doors now include lockable cam locks, allowing access only to authorised personnel.
Is it true that your buildings leave no carbon footprint on-site and that the land can go back to its original state once they’re removed?
Our buildings are designed to minimise environmental impact. We avoid deep foundations and concrete slabs, opting instead for low-impact, fully removable systems like Surefoot or ground screws. This allows the land to be easily restored to its original condition upon removal, which is especially valuable in culturally or environmentally sensitive areas.
While often grouped under “carbon footprint”, these are more accurately classified as environmental benefits. That said, we also offer genuine carbon-reducing features, including optional off-grid power packages (e.g. integrated solar and battery systems) and energy-efficient upgrades such as 3-phase air conditioning and high-performance insulation.
We’re also exploring the use of recycled materials and green-powered manufacturing, though we’ll only promote these once verified with suppliers.
Can you explain how your design helps reduce not just the risks of working at heights, but also the time and labour costs involved in setting up and taking down the buildings?
Our modular design eliminates the need for working at heights and significantly reduces labour requirements. For instance, Monadelphous reported up to 60% lower on-site installation costs due to faster mobilisation and simplified processes, resulting in both safety and cost benefits.
How can you help address the shortage of bricklayers and the resulting cost and timeline blow-outs, especially in regional councils?
Our buildings are factory-built and delivered ready for installation, removing the need for specialist trades such as bricklayers. Only basic local trades are required for final commissioning, helping to avoid delays and cost overruns—particularly beneficial in regional or remote areas facing labour shortages.
Are your buildings equipped with BAL-rated windows to comply with bushfire safety requirements?
We can supply BAL-rated buildings and have a strong understanding of bushfire compliance requirements, including the potential for BAL-FZ capability. This ensures suitability for high-risk areas near green space or bushland.
Can you tell me more about the ease and speed of commissioning and decommissioning your buildings?
Our buildings are engineered for rapid deployment and removal with minimal site preparation. This reduces both time and cost—savings that increase with every relocation, even within the same site.
Modules can be loaded and unloaded using a single-hook, four-point lift without the need for specialist lifting frames, further streamlining installation.
How does the ability to stack buildings up to three high help mitigate land availability and leasing cost challenges?
Our modular units are designed to stack up to three levels high under CSC certification, enabling efficient use of limited land and reducing leasing costs.
We are constantly looking at going higher, so watch this space.
