drive on glass floor heritage remains

LIDL, DUBLIN

Our multi panel glass floor panels were installed at Lidl, Dublin to allow shoppers to see an 11th century floor below.

We used our lifting gantries to menouvre the panels into place.

Although they don’t anticipate that any vehicles will be driving through the store, the weight of many shoppers and full shopping trolleys could be quite substantial, therefore requiring our highest specification drive on glass.

The new Lidl was built on 11th century Irish-Viking ruins in Dublin. It lies in what is thought to have been a Hiberno-Norse suburb of Dublin.

The Lidl now features a glass window in the floor allowing customers to see the preserved domestic structure below.
