Preston Overhead Protection Gantries Provide Your Building Site With Maximum Felxability, Usability & Protection!
Gantry Hire – Preston Site Gantries provide solid, versitile and reliable overhead protection on building sites. The Building Gantry is designed to ensure the safety of workers, pedestrians and adjacent buildings and provide effective 10 KPA load rating protection from construction material debris and other falling objects.
The integrated modular system makes them impact resistant and complaint with relevant Codes of Practice and Australian Stanadards.
Our unique pivot support system enables quick erection and dismantles on site to meet your program therefore improving efficiency, reducing vehicle lane closures and miminising valuable crane time. The massive 9m span ability of our Gantries legs allows for easy driveway, walkway and truck access laneways.
They can also be easily adapted to:
- Create an elevated site shed or amenities platform.
- Increase site storage locations on restricted sites.
- Elevate hoist or scaffold towers to free up footpath access.
- Create viewing platforms at sporting events.
- Create elevated amenities platforms at corporate events.
A Preston gantry is made with universal structural beams either side of the platforms with non slip checker plate decks internally throughout. For maximum flexability to accommodate vehicle access to the construction site, columns are typically between 3.0m and 6m high (other sizes can be accomodated) and can spaced up to 9.0m apart, although larger spacing’s can be designed to meet your special needs (Refer to a Preston Gantry consultant if you require larger distances). Solid wall handrails conceal building materials and minimizes the risk of falling objects therefore improving pedestrian safety.
