Sykes & Son Limited deliver a range of building, engineering and maintenance solutions to iconic clients and sites throughout London and the South East. They came to us during the construction of their new head office building to enquire about a signal solution. The brief; to boost the signal for their company phones.

Double Locks is a popular 18th-century Inn situated on the Exeter Ship Canal. With outdoor seats by the canal locks and cosy log fires, Double Locks is one of Devon’s most popular pubs. We were contacted and asked to design a signal solution to fix the very limited mobile signal at Double Locks. Poor mobile signal meant that the payment devices (point of sale terminals) didn’t work, especially during busy periods. The building has thick brick walls which were doing an excellent job of blocking mobile signal.
