Raleigh UK

Comfinity recently completed the installation of an Excel Category 6 B2ca compliant structured cabling system for Raleigh UK Ltd at the historic Durban House situated in Eastwood, Nottingham.

Built in 1896, Durban House has taken on many roles from being originally established as The Barber Walker mining company and once being the wages offices for Brinsley Colliery from where D.H. Lawrence's father worked to having a full renovation in 1998 where it was turned into a mining museum and heritage centre.

After standing derelict for several years, in May 2024, the building has undergone a full refurbishment throughout and is now the new Head Office for the well-known bicycle manufacturer Raleigh.

It was a challenging but highly rewarding project, involving installing cables through dot-and-dab walls and bespoke drilling through concrete walls and floors with minimal damage to finished decorated areas.

Through working closely with the IT Manager, Comfinity installed a full Excel Category 6 UTP B2ca structured copper cabling system with a 42U 800x1000 floor-standing communications cabinet. All are supported by a 25-year manufacturer warranty from Excel.
