Working in the Heart of the City
Looking back at works at Adelaide House, right in the middle of London’s financial district, DSM were called in to remove redundant rooftop machinery as part of a major renovation project. With busy streets below and a historic façade to protect, this was all about planning, control, and the right crane for the job.
Choosing the Right Equipment
The building’s height and load requirements meant careful crane selection was critical. Our team planned every stage, factoring in safety, lifting capacity, and traffic management to ensure the works were carried out smoothly and with zero disruption.

Preserving Heritage, Delivering Progress
Adelaide House is a listed building, so protecting its historic character was a key part of the project. DSM completed the machinery removal safely and efficiently, helping modernise the building’s systems while keeping its heritage intact.
