MEP works underway at Smart Heights

MEP works are underway at DAMAC Properties’ Smart Heights in order to ensure integration of all cabling, piping and wiring. This is paving the way for the imminent announcement of contracts for internal fixtures and fittings, including signage, lighting and sanitaryware, reports the developer.

Located in the Dubai Technology and Media (TECOM) Free Zone, the project has reached the 15th floor, and is on schedule to attain its final height of 21 storeys by the end of the year. The main building contractor is ECC.

The hi-tech development will include such ‘smart’ features as security card access control, energy-efficient lighting systems, automated boardrooms and business lounges and touch-pad request screens for elevators featuring LCD response panels.

DAMAC Properties chairman Hussain Sajwani commented that offering the latest technology was now becoming a necessity for developers wanting to stay ahead.



Office locations in Dubai had to differentiate themselves in this way by using technology. “A lot of thought and consideration went into the design for Smart Heights.

“Company expectations today are that they will have an office environment that will be designed to meet their every need and make their lives easier. The use of automation, electronics and IT facilities should be designed with the customer in mind, and we believe that Smart Heights will offer great options in this regard,” said Sajwani.

“We already know that Smart Heights will stand out because of its futuristic design, but it will also become synonymous with modern technology.

“TECOM will eventually become a vibrant business community, and it will be a great location for companies with excellent access to both Sheikh Zayed and Al Khail roads, in addition to the TECOM metro station just a few minutes walk away,” added Sajwani.
