When it comes to complex construction or maintenance projects requiring elevated access over obstructions, gantry scaffolds provide the perfect solution. At Glencross Scaffolding, we regularly deploy gantry systems to create safe, efficient working platforms above roads, pathways, plant rooms, or other inaccessible zones.
What Is a Gantry Scaffold?
A gantry scaffold is an elevated, often free-standing scaffold structure used to span across obstacles. Built with heavy-duty steel or alloy components, it allows operatives and materials to be safely transported and stored above ground level, reducing risks associated with working below or around congested or sensitive areas.
Gantry systems are particularly useful in high-footfall environments like retail parks, hospitals, or industrial complexes—places where pedestrian access needs to remain uninterrupted. They are also regularly used over loading bays, storage areas or delicate infrastructure such as pipelines or HVAC systems.
Tailored to Site Demands
Every gantry project we deliver is custom-designed for the specific needs of the site. Our team takes into account key considerations like span width, loading requirements, access points, and public safety. Whether you need a gantry scaffold for temporary pedestrian walkways, to facilitate roof works over a busy service yard, or for mechanical plant access, we build with safety and durability in mind.
Benefits of Gantry Scaffolds:
- • Uninterrupted access underneath the scaffold
- • Load-bearing platforms for materials and tools
- • Bespoke construction to match complex architectural or site features
- • Temporary roofs or sheeting options to protect work areas
