Because you're dealing with thick walls, your best bet is to use "power plug" wifi extenders. They will use the existing electricity cables in the building to extend the wifi.

Use a computer or phone to see how far and where signal gets weak. You nah need two, since signals do have a tough time getting through metal and concrete.

Hi there. It will work, however, there's a huge possibility that you will experience dropping wireless connection because of the physical obstructions on your network environment. You can eliminate it by finding a good spot where you can place your range extender away from those obstructions and you need to make sure that the device should get at least 2 - 3 signal bars from your router.
