The brief

Radio across
the factory floor.

The workforce needed something to listen to, with full audio coverage across the factory floor.

Stuart Buchanan Guages required two factory-wide audio systems at its Kilsyth premises. Each system needed 20 speakers and integrated digital radio to provide audio throughout the working areas.

The installation also needed to connect to the existing fire alarm system so that audio playback would mute automatically during a fire alarm.

What Galaxy installed

Coverage, radio
and alarm integration.

A commercial audio installation shaped around the factory's day-to-day use and its existing fire alarm system.

01 / COVERAGE

20 speakers per system

Two audio systems with speakers mounted across the factory floor: 40 speakers in total, installed to meet the factory-wide coverage requirement.

02 / AUDIO SOURCE

Integrated digital radio

Digital radio integrated into the audio systems, giving the workforce something to listen to throughout the working areas.

03 / INTEGRATION

Automatic audio muting

The audio systems were wired into the current fire alarm system so that playback mutes when the fire alarm activates.

The result

Everyday listening.
Automatic muting.

Two factory-wide audio systems delivering digital radio for the workforce, with 20 speakers on each system.

The installation combined the required factory-floor coverage with a connection to the existing fire alarm system for automatic audio muting during an alarm.
