Historic buildings provide the context of our cities and towns, making each place unique and rich in important history. As such, finding carefully considered ways to preserve building facades is essential to their longevity into the future.
CoxGomyl has an in-depth portfolio of facade access systems from all over the world and is highly experienced in providing tailored access solutions for the precise requirements of heritage buildings. These solutions help maintain architectural integrity while providing reliable access for ongoing cleaning, maintenance and facade repairs.
CoxGomyl has provided several facade access solutions for heritage buildings around the world.
CoxGomyl developed two Building Maintenance Units for the iconic Rockefeller Center in New York. The team was entrusted with developing and executing a carefully considered building access solution when it became clear that a modern new facade access system was required to protect the historic building. Special consideration was given to ensure all unique installation requirements on the existing structure were met within a tight timeframe, resulting in a comprehensive facade access system.
CoxGomyl has also been involved in numerous projects across Germany, supporting the redevelopment and modernisation of many historic structures. Silver Tower, which was built in 1978, is one example. An extensive restoration and modernisation of the building began in 2009.
The old facade access system was replaced with a new, modern Building Maintenance Unit to help protect the exterior facade for years to come. It was carefully designed with the client’s goal in mind: to help preserve the floor-to-ceiling windows that wrap around the auditorium and conference facilities, which are key features of the building.
Gustav Hassenpflug designed and built the modernist high-rise tower Bartningallee 9 in Berlin in 1957. Clean, elegant lines defined the concept, as did the introduction of variable floor plans for each apartment.
To replace an ageing facade access system and help preserve the building’s legacy for many years to come, a modern and highly functional CoxGomyl Building Maintenance Unit was installed.
