Complete your Portable Space
Supporting structures can be incorporated into your wider Portable Space configuration to connect buildings, provide access and meet additional site requirements.

Enclosed corridors that connect separate units or buildings, helping create a joined-up layout and provide protected movement between spaces.

Built for demanding environments
Portable does not mean one-size-fits-all. A space may need to support busy teams, withstand exposed site conditions, move between projects or meet specific requirements around fire, security, comfort and energy performance.
Our Portable Spaces can be configured around how, where and for how long they will be used, giving you a dependable space that is practical from day one.
Durable and adaptable
Designed for the realities of busy working environments, our Portable Spaces combine robust construction with a choice of sizes, layouts and internal configurations. Selected ranges can also be linked, stacked or configured for relocation, helping you to respond to changing capacity, site and project requirements.
Fire-rated accommodation for constrained sites
Our Surefire range provides fire-rated site accommodation for projects where available space makes separation from surrounding buildings a key consideration. We help customers select the appropriate specification and understand the installation, inspection and maintenance requirements that support the unit’s fire performance. Product selection and positioning must be considered alongside the site fire strategy and applicable Joint Code of Practice (JCoP) requirements.
Security and resilience
Anti-vandal and enhanced-security options are available across selected product ranges for exposed or higher-risk sites. Our team can help specify a configuration suited to your required operating environment, expected usage and security requirements helping protect people, equipment and essential assets.
