Bank House is the first phase of Pilgrim Place, a new office destination for Newcastle, which will provide over 40,000 sq.ft of new offices

The site occupies a prominent gateway position on one of Newcastle’s most important historic streets and offers an exciting opportunity to occupy a landmark building surrounded by new high quality public open spaces.

A large Bocker Giant 2038 passenger & goods hoist was supplied to Bank House. The top landing height was 69m with 14 landing gates. The lifting speed of this machine was 60mpm which ensured that men and materials were distributed to the relevant building levels quickly.  The machine was tied into the core walls and was used until the internal lifts had been commissioned. NTP also provided weekly inspections and 6 weekly servicing due to the high duty cycle of the machine. 

Another one of our success stories for a regular client. We have since secured future work from our client at Bank House due to the service level that we provide and the reliability of our machines.Â
