Accommodation modules

If you require quality accommodation modules for offshore, shipboard or any marine installation, there are a few select manufacturers with a background in marine engineering and the provision of marine doors, who also manufacture high tech and high tech bespoke accommodation modules. You should ensure that modules feature fully watertight doors and are compliant with all relevant health and safety statutes and are constructed to the highest industry standards. A reputable firm will construct modules in various sizes, typically from 20ft to 40 ft for the comfortable accommodation of between one and eight workers. Furthermore, they are often available in modular form: so that they can be linked together in different levels and specifications in order to be completely fit for purpose. Versatile accommodation modules are a functional home from home for workers, so always includes wet rooms with shower and toilet facilities, bedrooms and even canteens. They can also be adapted to include meeting rooms and offices, galleys, locker rooms and laundries. Furthermore ensure that essential safety features and communication features are fitted as standard, including an HVAC system, fire and gas detection, emergency lighting, sprinkler system, full automatic shutdown, fire dampeners, and PA/TV/telephone sockets. Waterproof marine doors are of course, an invaluable feature and all modules should be SOLAS certificated. If you are searching online for these facilities, look for a firm which is happy to advise you thoroughly before you buy and can provide examples of their modules whilst they are fully operational in situ, as well as reviews and testimonials from customers. Safety, functionality and comfort always come before price, but that does not mean that you cannot discuss possible discounts or wisely compare the deals offered by competitor companies. Finally, seek out a firm which offers a variety of marine products and has a record for innovation, versatility and customer satisfaction in your particular niche of the marine industry.

Marine Doors

If you require marine doors, blast doors, watertight doors or A60 doors, a few select specialist companies can be found online who offer exactly these services. It is important that any company which you order from always makes safety a top priority although, in the marine business, it is likely that any firm which has a reasonably long lifespan in the industry has never compromised on these issues as if they had done, they would never have survived as a viable business and would have felt the full weight of punitive legal measures. However, never be presumptuous about health and safety, as charlatans can be found in any business sector, so make sure that all marine doors and waterproof doors have the features which you require and are tested to destruction by manufacturers in real life ‘in vivo’ conditions. For example, watertight hatches should include thick cover plates, stiffened weld on ribs, EPDM perimeter seals and off flush lifting points. Furthermore, they should be operated by keys from above and a central wheel from below and should arrive at your location ready to ‘plug and play’. Any A60 and AO doors should be tested to the most stringent industrial standards and the same applies to any navy supply doors. The offshore industry, shipping sector and the Naval forces demand the highest quality products for their vessels, facilities and installations as they are aware that their employees and servicemen perform highly skilled and hazardous tasks in some of the most challenging environmental conditions imaginable. If you are entrusted with ordering accommodation modules, watertight doors or marine doors for your company or Naval vessel, it is essential to make safety and functionality your top priorities. Look around and compare prices, value for money and customer service. Moreover, always engage the services of a firm which has a proven track record for the provision of tough, safe and durable products.
