Aluminium scaffold is lighter in weight in comparison to steel scaffold. It also tends to feel less secure when walking/working on it compared to a steel scaffold which feels more solid/strong because steel scaffolding has a much higher max. load capacity than that of an aluminium scaffold.

Aluminium being lighter in weight makes it more suitable to be erected on roofs etc to reduce the total load weight, and it is also easier to carry. It is proven that aluminium scaffold reduces install and dismantle times. However, the scaffold once installed has a lower max load capacity in comparison to steel scaffold.

Ringlock scaffolding is a modular scaffolding system, which makes it quick and easy to erect, alter, and dismantle in comparison to tube and coupler.

A barrier or system to prevent workers falling from the roof.

The scaffold must be 300mm away from the wall without having to have guardrails in place.  Check our wide range of Wellington scaffolding services to know more.

We make sure that all scaffolds are built to NZ Scaffolding standards (and manufacturers specifications). We also do a weekly inspection of scaffold to ensure that the integrity of the scaffold is maintained. Scaffolds can move due to weather/earthquakes, or illegally tampered with by non-scaffolders. If the scaffold fails to comply with the inspection standards , the scaffold will be declared unsafe. The person inspecting will remove “scaffold safe” tag , and expose the “scaffold unsafe” tag . Alterations will be made and an inspection will commence afterwards to ensure the scaffold complies. If you are looking for a scaffolding hire in Wellington that offers topmost safety, give us a call.
