Several of those who participated in the use of the Liftroller system during our visit had already used Liftroller on other projects in Denmark and had good experience. This applied to carpenters, plumbers, and crane operators. Therefore, they were pleased to be able to use it on this project as well. One project that several mentioned was the Postbyen, the New Danish Bank headquarter, which had several Liftroller Wall installed during the extencive project.

On site adaptions

We are continually impressed by our customers’ creativity and clever solutions for closing the openings where Liftroller is installed when not in use. Børneriget is no exception. Here, they have created a gateway sealed with transparent plexiglass plates that slide into a groove. It is easy and quick to open and close as needed.

Børneriget undoubtedly has an intriguing facade that, at first glance, may seem challenging for installing Liftroller Wall. The unique facade is designed to effectively shield against sunlight, and it was crucial to protect the special facade panels during crane operations. Our Danish partner, Montera, has extensive experience in installing Liftrollers and handled this situation effectively. In collaboration with local carpenters, they created a frame that allowed the full utilization of the available window width and provided protection for the finished facade.
