The Beacon Modular Building is a high-quality pre-assembled building system. It offers the well-established trusted features and benefits that have helped make our building & housing products our customers’ go-to building system for their diverse and unique requirements. The Beacon is perfectly suited for 24/7 working environments such as gatehouses, visitor receptions, toll booths, vehicle check-in kiosks, staff office accommodations, security checkpoints and control centres, plus many more applications.

Dependable Design with Built-In Benefits

The Beacon Modular Building delivers excellent features with a few great extras.

The  Beacon is available in 17 size configurations and two standard colours. A natural anodised aluminium framework finish is complemented with ‘Silver’ wall panels, whilst an alternative polyester powder-coated framework is available in Anthracite Grey with matching wall panels to provide a sleek and stylish aesthetic. Both standard finishes have a light grey internal colour pallet with durable vinyl wallpaper and welded sheet vinyl flooring.

The Beacon Modular Building system is assembled from a suite of thermally broken aluminium alloy extrusions, composite floor and wall panels, direct fixed glazing, and proprietary aluminium framed window and door systems. To complement the existing framework, an aluminium fascia system has been designed and developed in conjunction with the introduction of a Structurally Insulated Panel (SIP) roof system, providing an improved level of thermal performance.

The Beacon will now feature a weather-resistant pre-finished steel external finish to the insulated composite wall panels, and all windows/doors will be double-glazed as standard. The external envelope is completed by an insulated composite floor panel supported on a preservative-treated timber plinth complete with vapour barrier to the underside. The well-balanced levels of insulation help to control thermal transfer through the structure, reduce the risk of condensation and maintain user comfort for the operatives.

More Competitive Than Ever

As a provider of quality products, Glasdon strives to constantly evolve, ensuring that our products remain competitive as market and customer needs change. The Beacon is no exception to this principle and our design team has gone the extra mile to offer our renowned quality at a lower cost-effective price.

With its price, great options and extras, customers can now get even more for their money. The Beacon offers a wide selection of interior options, including electrical packages, worktops, cabinets, partitions, sanitaryware and welfare facilities, creating bespoke internal layouts to suit various applications.

Standard panel options include blank walls, fixed and opening windows, horizontal sliding windows, and glazed door arrangements, which allow building layouts to be adapted to the customer and site-specific requirements.

Additional options are also available for a fully customised solution, including ‘Grey’ anti-sun solar control glass, heating, ventilation and air conditioning packages (HVAC) exterior lighting and canopies, and non-standard external finishes to match the customer's corporate colour schemes, all competitively priced accordingly.

PLEASE NOTE: Additional charges may apply for different colours.
