How does balcony automation help tackle the complexity of large urban construction projects?
In this install footage, we showcase RLD (Remote Locking Device) balcony automation in action at Buildings 1–5 of the £600m Bermondsey Project, led by McAleer & Rushe for Greystar Developments in South London. The use of remote locking technology streamlines balcony installation—safely, quickly, and efficiently on a logistically challenging site.
With 359 homes being delivered across these buildings, and over 1,600 planned across the full site, balcony automation plays a critical role in helping contractors stay on programme and maintain safety standards in tight, high-rise environments near key infrastructure.
What You'll Learn:
How RLD balcony automation works in real construction settings
Why remote locking helps on high-density urban sites
The role of balcony offsite manufacturing in improving speed and safety
How automation supports phased delivery in regeneration schemes
Real-world examples from the Bermondsey Project
By using automated systems like RLD, balcony installation is safer, quicker, and less labour-intensive—an example of how the journey is streamlined by Sapphire.
