The Leadenhall Building
The Leadenhall Building, nicknamed ‘The Cheesegrater’, stands tall at 224m in the heart of London’s financial district. The commercial skyscraper offers over 600,000 sq. ft of workspace across 45 floors, combining office and communal areas for a vibrant, productive working environment. Together with British Land, we delivered stronger mobile connectivity to one of London’s most iconic modern landmarks.
The challenge
Modern building materials. Iconic design. Poor mobile signal. The Leadenhall Building’s distinctive architecture makes it one of London’s most recognisable landmarks, but its steel frame and energy-efficient glazing created significant mobile coverage issues, especially on the upper floors. Call quality was inconsistent, and connectivity didn’t meet the expectations of its high-profile tenants. British Land needed more than a quick fix. They required a reliable, future-proof solution that would deliver dedicated mobile signal across every floor and support all mobile network operators.
Mobile connectivity solution
We worked side by side with British Land’s technical team and all UK mobile network operators to design the right mobile solution for the building. With over 15 years’ experience behind us, we deployed a network designed not just for today, but for the future. From the basement to the 45th floor, our solution it delivers strong, reliable signal exactly where it’s needed. The uplift in experience also played a key role in The Leadenhall Building earning Platinum WiredScore Certification.
The results…
