Custom Aluminium Fabrication
Our expertise in aluminium fabrication covers a broad range of applications. We manufacture work platforms, awnings, air intake pipes, ute canopies, ramps, ladders, toolboxes, storage solutions, fuel tanks, water tanks, boat modifications, gates, and fencing. Every industrial product sticks to AS 1657 standards, which guarantees both safety and durability. By utilising marine-grade and structural-grade aluminium in tubular or sheet form, we provide durable solutions for land, sea, and air applications.
Our ability to customise products to exact specifications ensures that every project aligns with client needs. Whether it’s a bulk order or a single custom job, we deliver solutions tailored for industrial and commercial use.
Aluminium Fixed Platforms
Our aluminium fixed platforms are designed for strength and durability. They suit wash-down areas and remote mine sites. Made in our Bayswater, WA facility, every platform goes through quality control. Low maintenance and can withstand harsh weather; these are cost effective for your business. We use non-corrosive materials in our design so they will perform for the long term. Customisable to your site requirements, these platforms will improve safety and efficiency in the workplace.
Aluminium Gangways
Designed for stability and durability, our aluminium gangways are ideal for wash-down areas and remote mine sites. From 2m to 20m in length, used in tailings dams, mine site loading facilities, marinas, and pontoon attachments. Designed for tough environments, safety and long term performance. Anti-slip surface and reinforced load capacity provides safe access to various work areas.
Aluminium Mobile Platforms
Aviation, mining and transport industries use our aluminium mobile platforms for their operations. These platforms are lightweight and portable, designed for airline passenger stairs, engine change stands, machinery washing, and equipment maintenance. Each platform meets industry standards, safe and low maintenance. Aluminium’s resistance to corrosion makes these platforms perfect for harsh weather. No cranes or heavy supports required, means more efficiency at work.
Advantages of Aluminium Work Platforms over Ladders
Aluminium work platform selection has a larger, more stable working area than an aluminium ladder, reducing fall risk and increasing productivity. Their strength for carrying heftier tools and supplies is why they’re really in high demand in all kinds of different fields. Features like safety guardrails, slip resistant surfaces, and locking devices mean a whole lot when it comes to safety. These platforms work totally on their own and rely on nothing outside of themselves. This lets workers handle things quickly and with very little chance of getting hurt at work.
Aluminium Frame and Structural Design
Our aluminium platforms are used in custom designed industrial structures. Over 40 years we have provided platforms for transport, railway and aviation industries. Many of our designs have height adjustable systems, using electric or hydraulic methods, for tasks such as train cleaning, aircraft maintenance and industrial repairs. Aluminium’s lightweight properties, compared to steel, allow for easier transportation and installation without compromising strength. The modular and expandable framework options increase flexibility in industrial applications, making aluminium a preferred choice for various structural designs.
What Industries Use Aluminium Work Platforms and for What?
Aluminium work platforms are widely used across various industries due to their lightweight, durable nature and the safety features they offer. Here are some of the primary industries that commonly utilise aluminium work platforms and the specific purposes they serve:
- Construction
In construction aluminium work platforms provide access to elevated areas for jobs like building facades, roofing and maintenance. They’re a safer alternative to traditional scaffolding which can be bulky and hard to set up. Aluminium platforms are easy to transport and assemble, making them more efficient on site and increasing productivity.
- Manufacturing
In manufacturing facilities aluminium work platforms provide safe access to machinery for jobs like maintenance, inspections and assembly. Workers can access overhead areas quickly and securely. Aluminium’s resistance to corrosion makes it ideal for environments with chemicals or moisture. This means the platforms will last longer and require less maintenance.
- Warehousing and Logistics
In warehouses aluminium work platforms are used for inventory management, order picking and inspecting goods on high shelves. They allow workers to access products at heights safely. These platforms are portable so can be used in different areas of the warehouse. They can adjust to different heights based on the shelving layout.
- Maintenance and Service Industries
Aluminium work platforms are used in maintenance and service tasks like HVAC repairs, electrical installations and plumbing. They provide safe access to elevated systems and equipment. These platforms are versatile so maintenance workers can adapt quickly to different tasks and environments.
- Aerospace and Aviation
In the aerospace industry aluminium work platforms are essential for accessing aircraft during assembly, maintenance and inspections. They allow technicians to reach different parts of the aircraft safely. Aluminium’s lightweight design reduces the overall weight of maintenance equipment which is critical in aviation.
- Retail and Display
Retail spaces use aluminium work platforms to set up displays, signage and lighting. These platforms give you the height to arrange products and promotional materials properly. Aluminium platforms are easy to move so ideal for retail areas. They help staff design good layouts while being safe.
- Event Management
Event planners use aluminium work platforms to build stages, set up lighting and create elevated structures for events like concerts, exhibitions and weddings. These platforms are fast to assemble and disassemble which is essential in event management. They’re easy to use and convenient for quick set up and tear down.
- Painting and Finishing
Aluminium platforms are used for painting and finishing, giving painter’s safe access to high walls and ceilings. These platforms are stable and have multiple height options so painters can work efficiently. They meet safety standards and allow better access during the job.
