What is the difference between steel and aluminium scaffolding?
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.
What are the advantages of using aluminium scaffolding?
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.
What is ringlock scaffolding?
Ringlock scaffolding is a modular scaffolding system, which makes it quick and easy to erect, alter, and dismantle in comparison to tube and coupler.
What is roof edge protection?
A barrier or system to prevent workers falling from the roof.
To what height can I build a scaffold without the need of a professional scaffolder?

Wellington scaffolding should be 5m high above ground level. 

At what height do I need to use a harness?

When installing scaffolds in Wellington and all through NZ, workers must wear a harness wherever there is risk of a fall (ex . 2m from the ground). Take care to use a harness that has the correct length lanyard.

What type of scaffolding do you use?

We use both ringlock scaffolding and tube and coupler systems. We also offer scaffold hire Wellington services for your convenience and safety. 

What safety equipment do your scaffolders use?

Harnesses, Hard hats, gloves, safety boots/shoes, High visibility clothing, and in some areas of work, facemasks. These are basic requirements in any Wellington scaffolding companies. 

What height do the guardrails need to be?

Guardrails need to be installed approx. 500mm above the platform height, and also approx. 1m above the platform height (+/- 100mm). To ensure the best safety for your workers, give us a call. We supply and deliver the best scaffold hire Wellington service. 

What is the maximum height a scaffold can be built to?
The maximum height for steel ringlock scaffolding is 38m before having to consult with an engineer. Refer to the manufacturer’s specifications for the particular scaffolding you are using first and foremost as different systems, or aluminium have their own safety ratings.
How far away from the working face can I have the scaffold?

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. 

How do you ensure safety in using scaffolding?

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.
