Case Studies
Our case studies highlight real-world wireless fire alarm system projects delivered across a range of building sectors.
From heritage properties and high rise developments to healthcare facilities and construction sites, each project demonstrates a structured approach to survey, design, installation support and certified delivery.
Portakabin – Amgen Contractors Compound
| Sector: | Construction Sites |
|---|---|
| Project Summary: | Significant expansion of production facilities at Amgen, Dun Laoghaire site. Large contractor compound installed by Portakabin, managed by PM Group. Multi-block, multi-storey Portakabin modular buildings. |
| Solution Highlights: | Fully compliant, wireless fire detection systems rapidly deployed in every building within the contractors compound. EMS FireCell wireless fire detection systems installed in ten separate buildings. Each building seamlessly networked to the main site system. |
VRF worked with Portakabin to deliver fully compliant fire detection systems in 2025 for Phase 1 and in 2026 for Phase 2 of this project.
Due to the highly complex nature of the site, VRF worked to ensure that the wireless fire alarm systems in each Portakabin modular building were commissioned, live, and operational in line with tight site setup and delivery schedules.
By deploying wireless fire detection systems, the hundreds of tradespeople, engineers, and project managers using the compound daily were fully protected without compromising the strict, fast-moving logistics of the Amgen site.
