Modus Vertical has been designed with build efficiency and ease of installation in mind. Making it an ideal solution for 'fast-track' refurbishment projects as well as new build.
Aesthetically appealing
Side extrusions - with integral cable compartments for ELV and LV services, connect together with aluminium back plates to form a rigid chassis ready to receive gas piping and back boxes containing electrical and electronic compartments.
Front plates slide into position to be secured using screws which are hidden by a decorative plastic cover strip.
The overall appearance of Modus Vertical is enhanced by a stylish bottom cover and a cover plate to hide the cut edge of the ceiling tile where the unit enters the ceiling void.
For service and maintenance purposes, the design of Modus Vertical allows easy access to all internal components by removing individual front plates as required.
Flexibility
The flexible build concept behind Modus Vertical allows any combination of services to be accommodated at any position within the unit - a factor that assists with upgrading.
Units are available in three standard widths: 450 mm, 600 mm and 900 mm. For both flush and surface mounting. Although our design team is ready to discuss non-standard build specifications.
Designed for off-site construction
Leading in the field of best practice, Modus Vertical has been designed to be delivered to site fully assembled. All services are installed, tested, certified in line with current standards and, where required, fitted with modular wired connectors to provide a quality, time and cost-effective solution for off-site construction projects.
Alternatively, the chassis only can be supplied built ready for on-site construction and installation of services.
Our manufacturing facilities - in the West Midlands, allow specifically for the assembly of medical services systems. Providing for easier control of production in a clean and safe working environment. Off-site manufacture is ideal for accommodating just-in-time deliveries.
During the production process our facilities are also available for use by third-party suppliers, such as gas installers.
Compliance
Modus meets current HTM and all other relevant standards, guidance and practice.

Luminaires are supplied to site pre-assembled and pre-wired to assist with fixing and connection.
