PROBLEM SOLVING at speed was all part of the year-long job for Alpha Ceilings and Partitions, the company briefed to install the ceilings and steel stud partitions throughout the Volt on Queen complex.The team worked on the base construction of the ceilings throughout the project, including the apartments and common areas. Altogether the company was on site for more than a year, says managing director Terry Archer.The company chose Rondo steel stud walls, installing them throughout the apartments and all common areas including the retail areas, gym and plant rooms. For each apartment, five internal walls were installed, plus the interconnecting walls between each unit. A view of some ceilings done by Alpha Ceilings. The second part of the brief was to install suspended ceilings throughout the two towers. For this, USG grid products were sourced locally through Potters Interior Systems. A 450mm space was retained for services, which left an apartment ceiling height of 2.4m.As well as large commercial projects such as Volt, Alpha Ceilings and Partitions works in the high-end domestic market. It also specialises in the niche commercial market of custom-designed ceilings, such as those used for the Britomart Transport Centre in Auckland and the retail link at Auckland Airport's domestic terminal."We can handle the whole interior process from ceiling grid installation to the plasterboard fixing, steel stud walls and the stopping," says Archer.
