Harold Engineering was entrusted with upgrading Frank Keane BMW’s workshop to enhance efficiency, safety and workflow. The project involved installing high-quality equipment tailored to the needs of a modern automotive service centre, while keeping the workshop operational throughout.
The brief
Frank Keane BMW needed a workshop that matched the standards of the brand: faster vehicle turnaround, safer working conditions and a layout that lets technicians work with precision and ease. Our task was to deliver a state-of-the-art workshop system end to end.
What we installed
- Lifting equipment: seven BMW-approved 2-post lifts, with existing lifts rearranged while the workshop stayed operational.
- Workbench system: a Dura bench system fully integrated to give technicians a durable, efficient workspace.
- Compressed air system: a fully optimised network ensuring seamless operation of pneumatic tools and equipment.
- Extraction system: specialised exhaust extraction to maintain air quality and a safe working environment.
- Oil monitoring system: a cutting-edge system to streamline oil usage and management, reducing waste.
- Heating system: radiant tube heating for efficient, even warmth throughout the workshop.
Outcome & benefits
- Enhanced productivity: modern equipment has streamlined operations and reduced service time per vehicle.
- Improved safety standards: extraction and oil monitoring reduce the risks associated with fumes and fluid management.
- Optimised workspace: the Dura bench and compressed air systems make for a more organised, efficient workshop.
