The Peak Tower is located at Victoria Gap, and houses the upper terminus of the Peak Tram.
It is not located at the top of Victoria Peak, but at an elevation of
396 m. Because the architects sought a design which would be prominent
on the skyline but would not interrupt the natural line of the hills,
they chose a site in a dip along the line of the hills, and restricted
the tower's height to 428 m above sea level.
The Peak Tower was designed by the British architect Terry Farrell. It has seven floors with a total area of 10,400 m² (112,000 ft²) in a wok shape. There is a viewing platform on the third floor.
We were commisisioned to supply our Wayfinder Lateral Fire Resistant Roller Shutters to Compartmentise floor space on five of the seven floors. This unique shutter has full approval by the local Fire Authority.
