Colin Lammey, Chief Fire Officer, Northern Ireland Fire and Rescue Service:
Paying tribute to Knox & Clayton’s innovative design Mr Lammey said: "We worked closely for a year with Knox & Clayton on plans for a new Fire Station and Community Fire Safety Centre in Armagh.
"We were delighted with the innovative concepts suggested by the architects which met all the requirements for our new station.
"Their vision was focused around our needs and what we wanted to achieve with this truly modern fire station – a building that can be used by the entire community."
David Heenan, Barbican Service Station, Newcastle:
"We have worked with Kno & Clayton for a number of years both commercially and privately and they have always proved to be top professionals , delivering a first class service.
"Ernie’s foresight in designing a home for us which would stand the test of time as our family grew has, after 10 years of living in it, proved invaluable."
George Emerson, managing director of the Norman Emerson Group:
“Our new head office at Derryadd is a tribute to the professionalism and skills of the project architects, Knox & Clayton.
“Ernie Knox’s imagination for the building won me over and the main architect on the design,
David Bingham, was a perfectionist whose ideas exceeded anything I could have imagined.”
Des Smyth of Mossley Hockey Club:
“Knox & Clayton were extremely easy to deal with and from the inception of the project right to the end they were most helpful and cooperative.
“Their expertise in persuading us to go for a two storey building instead of the single storey one we had originally planned, saved us a lot of valuable space, allowing for a bigger car park and services area and their idea to put large windows in the upper floor provided us with panoramic views of the whole pitch, which are fantastic.”
Ivan Prue of Belfast Metropolitan College:
“We have worked with Knox & Clayton for a number of years on various projects and always found them to be an excellent company.
“They are very approachable and easy to deal with and their expertise and foresight has meant they always delivered beyond our expectations.”

“We have worked with Knox & Clayton for many years, mainly with partner Des Clayton.
“We have found them to be excellent in terms of the quality of the work and delivering on time and within budget. They have also done an excellent job of project managing all our work.” |
