Why Fixings are Important

You may have a great scaffolding setup, but it’s no good if you don’t have strong and robust fittings to bring it all together. Scaffolding fixings may seem like a small part of the whole but they are absolutely integral to the safety of your structure.

Types of Scaffolding Fixings

What to Consider

When assembling scaffolding, it is vital to install each component in accordance with the relevant safety standards and the load-bearing considerations that will influence how you build your setup. 

In order to construct your scaffold correctly, refer to the manufacturer’s instructions. Be careful not to cut corners or make a design that doesn’t adhere to the manufacturer’s standards; instead, check the types of bracing and fasteners and make sure they meet the required level for safety.
