Laboratories

Laboratory Design, Refurbishment & Fit-Out

At Pinnacle, we design and refurbish school laboratories that combine functionality, safety, and flexibility. Each design reflects our expertise in balancing technical performance with practical use, creating productive, adaptable learning environments that evolve alongside modern teaching methods.

Safety, Compliance & Best Practice

Safety is at the heart of every Pinnacle laboratory. Our designs strictly adhere to all relevant educational and safety guidelines, including the DfE Output Specification, Building Bulletin 80 (BB80), CLEAPSS (Consortium of Local Education Authorities for the Provision of Science Services) guidance, health and safety legislation, and all applicable building regulations. 


We ensure that all layouts meet or exceed the recommended and regulatory safe minimum working distances between benches, services, and circulation routes.

Designed to support modern teaching and learning

Every science space is designed with flexibility and productivity in mind. Whether it’s a chemistry lab, physics suite, or general science classroom, Pinnacle creates layouts that support a wide range of teaching methods, class sizes, and demonstration styles. 


From fixed benching and perimeter layouts to reconfigurable mobile workstations, our designs promote both teacher-led instruction and independent student investigation. 


We carefully plan service positions, sightlines, and circulation flow to create an environment where learning and safety work in harmony.

Diverse Storage & Display Solutions

Effective laboratory design requires more than just bench space — it demands intelligent, durable, and adaptable storage and display solutions. 

Pinnacle integrates specialised storage for glassware, chemicals, and scientific apparatus, alongside display areas that encourage curiosity and showcase student work.


Our bespoke modular systems maximise space efficiency, allowing for secure, labelled storage that meets CLEAPSS and DfE safety requirements. 

This attention to detail ensures laboratories remain tidy, functional, and compliant, while supporting smooth teaching delivery and easy equipment access.
