Project description
Client initial brief
Supporting Five Guys France in the complete transformation of a building located in Bastille, in the heart of Paris, into a new restaurant spanning three floors.
The objective was to deliver a space that met the brand’s standards while being both functional and accessible, overseeing the design, coordination, and execution of all construction work within a particularly constrained urban environment.
Challenges or constraints encountered
The building’s configuration and the extent of the structural work made this a technically demanding and complex project. The work notably involved replacing the existing lift with a platform lift for people with reduced mobility, building a new staircase, and installing a goods lift.
These installations required the creation of several floor openings, as well as the construction of a new floor structure across the entire level.
The teams also had to contend with the constraints of a construction site in the heart of Paris, while coordinating multiple trades across three floors within an 18-week timeframe.
Solution proposed and implemented
Over 18 weeks, our teams managed the complete transformation of the site in collaboration with the Five Guys Construction team and Primaltura.
Our expertise was applied at every stage of the project. Its successful completion required anticipating constraints, adapting technical solutions, and coordinating all stakeholders.
Our key achievements:
- Complete demolition and site preparation
- Installation of structural reinforcements and completion of the structural works
- Construction of a new staircase
- Replacement of the existing lift with a platform lift for people with reduced mobility
- Construction of a new floor structure across the entire level
- Metalwork, electrical, and plumbing works
- Completion of the various architectural work packages
- Cladding of the new service shafts throughout the full height of the building
- Furniture installation and fit-out

Testimonial
“The transformation of the Five Guys Bastille site presented a major technical and organisational challenge. Spanning three floors in the heart of Paris, the project required the coordination of numerous trades while adhering to a demanding 18-week schedule.
The Groupe Pagès teams successfully anticipated constraints, developed appropriate solutions and ensured rigorous project management at every stage of the construction process. Their expertise, responsiveness and ability to bring all stakeholders together were instrumental in successfully completing this complex project.”
