Scaffolding Hellesdon

About Scaffolding: A system that enables builders to function safely and securely at height and get to what are otherwise unreachable places on houses, offices and other structures, scaffolding is comprised of a framework of steep tubes and fixtures which when clamped together tightly create a sturdy platform from which to work. And it's not just the workmen who get protection from the scaffolding, as it also shields the general public and people working or residing in the property, from falling objects and other possible threats.

The different components that fit together to form a scaffold include: ladder clamps, base plates, swivel clamps, scaffold boards, guard rails, toeboards, standards, sills, board clamps, ladders, limpet clamps, putlogs, ledgers, right angle clamps, facade braces, couplers, spade ends, sole boards, midrails and diagonal braces.
