Top of Europe, our highest construction site

Even in the high mountains, fire protection must be guaranteed in buildings with large numbers of people. We received a request from an architect to install a telescopic sliding door with integrated escape door on the Jungfraujoch. We received the order and, in addition to the usual technical challenges, had to deal with extraordinary transport and installation conditions.

Maik Breit was our fitter for the high-mountain operation. You need some fitness to work at 3454 metres above sea level.

Our tested fire protection door protects people and property for at least 30 minutes in case of fire. Thanks to good preparation and a smooth process, we were able to complete the installation and arrival in 2 days.
