Modular Steel Solutions for Data Centres
Steel enclosures for electronic and utility equipment (E-Houses), modular steel support structures, utility skids and access platforms. Certified to Execution Class 2 — designed, fabricated and installed by one partner.
One partner for data centre steelwork.
Every data centre rests on a layer of precision steelwork — enclosures that protect critical electrical and utility plant, structures that support it, and skids that bring power, water and cooling on line.
NoreFab gives main contractors and M&E contractors a single accountable partner for that layer. Our in-house design team, our own fabrication facility in Kilkenny and our site installation crews mean nothing is outsourced and no one is chasing three suppliers. One team, one programme, one standard.
- In-house design, fabrication and installation
- ISO 9001 certified quality management
- EN 1090 Execution Class 2 (EXC2) CE-marked steelwork
- 30+ experienced fabricators and welders
- Significant off-site pre-fabrication
- Trusted in pharma, food and data infrastructure
Built for off-site manufacture
A large workshop and repeatable modules mean shorter installation windows and less hot works on a live programme.
Built for compliance
Full traceability, CE marking and documentation packs from a certified factory production system.
Built for commissioning
Assembly and factory acceptance testing in our workshop protect your programme from day one.
The benefits of off-site manufacturing (OSM) of modular steelwork.
On a data centre programme, every day on site counts. Building the steelwork in our workshop instead of on your site removes risk, compresses the programme and hands you a tested, certified product.
Design for Manufacture
Design criteria are managed closely through every stage of fabrication, so what leaves the workshop matches the model — and nothing is re-engineered on site.
Large Workshop for Off-Site Fabrication
Our Kilkenny facility allows full modules to be built and finished under one roof, moving programme risk off the data centre site and out of the weather.
Off-Site Assembly & Final Testing
Skids, frames and enclosures are assembled and checked in the workshop — not on a congested live site — so site installation is fast, safe and predictable.
Factory Acceptance Testing
Packages can be witnessed and signed off in our workshop before they travel, protecting your commissioning programme from day one.
Modular steel solutions, engineered end to end.
Every package is designed in house, manufactured in our own facility and installed by our own crews — end to end.
Steel Enclosures for Electronic & Utility Equipment (E-Houses)
Bespoke steel enclosures that house and protect critical electrical and utility plant. Modelled in 3D before a single cut is made, each E-House arrives coordinated with the equipment, services and access requirements it was designed around.
- Electrical and utility equipment enclosures
- Acoustic, weatherproof and secure casings
- Integrated access, ventilation and lifting points
- Delivered as complete, certified units
Modular Steel Support Structures
Repeatable, pre-fabricated steel modules — platforms, walkways, staircases, gantries and plant supports — engineered for the tight service corridors and plant rooms that define data centre builds.
- Access platforms, walkways and staircores
- Plant supports, gantries and mezzanines
- Bolt-together modules for rapid erection
- Designed around confined and awkward spaces
Utility Skids & Access Platforms
Complete utility skids — pump sets, manifolds, filtration and mechanical services — fabricated, assembled and pre-tested off-site before they ever reach site.
- Pump sets, manifolds and mechanical services skids
- Pre-assembled and pre-tested off-site
- Single certified delivery to site
- Designed for rapid connection and commissioning
Off-site manufactured, factory tested.
