HKL Scaffolding Overview

There are many types of scaffolding that HKL Scaffolding provides. 3 main categories would be:

  • 1. Suspended Scaffolding
  • 2. Supported Scaffolding
  • 3. Aerial Scaffolding

Suspended scaffolding is when the scaffold is securely suspended via rope from the top of a house or building. Suspended scaffolding is made of other components such as switches, levers and pulleys. These allow you to lower yourself from the top of the building all the way down to the bottom.

Supported scaffolding is the one most used at construction sites to build from the ground up. It consists of poles to make a framed scaffold. You climb up a ladder to mount this type of scaffolding and work from the middle length of the scaffold called a platform. It is very important to use sturdy materials and trusted joints and poles to avoid any potential accidents that may cause the life of your workers. HKL Scaffolding frames are manufactured from high tensile structural carbon steel with main load-bearing members having an outside diameter of 42.7mm and a wall thickness of 2.4mm. Our technical data can be found here.

Lastly, there are aerial lifts. Aerial lifts are actually mounted devices that have the capability to be lifted to other elevations and locations. This is extremely helpful to workers when they have a need for the scaffolding to be lifted to a completely different location. However, for this to be accomplished, this is one of the types of scaffolding that requires shackles to prevent them from being accidentally disengaged from the hook carrying the lift.

It is important to know what scaffolding to use for what purposes.
