Scaffolding

Scaffolding is the core of our business. Brazier specializes in three types of scaffolding – commercial, residential and industrial. Our scaffolding systems are safe, robust and reliable.

We can provide scaffolding for a variety of projects, including:

  • Large construction projects

  • Large and small renovation projects

  • Apartment complexes

  • Commercial centres

  • Heritage and restoration projects

  • Residential construction

  • Infrastructure projects

We predominantly work with Layher Scaffolding Systems, widely recognized as the best scaffolding on the market. All Layher scaffolding solutions meet stringent safety requirements, both internationally and in New Zealand.

Brazier also employ the use of tube and clip scaffolding, where required. It is widely regarded as a versatile type of scaffolding. We carry a large inventory of tube and clip scaffolding throughout our branches to complete the most demanding and specialised types of scaffolds.

Protect Panel System

Brazier Scaffolding use the Layher Protect System on its sites to ensure

 The Protect Panel System:

  • Is a cladding solution

  • Protects against site hazards

  • Provides excellent noise control

  • Is quick and safe to assemble

Cladding Solution

Layher’s Protect System is a comprehensive weather, cladding and hazard protection solution. The system’s fully enveloping design creates a protective skin around the structure, protecting workers and the public from hazards, and providing an effective means to control noise, dust and other environmental contaminants.

Site Hazard Protection

The Protect System uses a rubber seal to form a watertight and dust-proof barrier around its outer perimeter making it suitable for a variety of construction uses, including weather protection, controlling demolition dust and other particulates, and environmentally sensitive applications, such as façade cladding, and sandblasting projects.

The system provides physical protection with wall cassettes constructed using lightweight aluminium frames and either sheet steel or translucent plastic panels. This places a strong barrier between workspaces and pedestrians, guarding against falling debris and other site hazards.

Noise Control

The Layher Protect System also offers very excellent acoustic insulating characteristics.

The system delivers a guaranteed noise reduction of 20 dBA, but the addition of sound insulation matting increases this to 26 dBA or more, which corresponds to an overall noise reduction of approximately 75 percent. The system is ideal for reducing sound levels at events and for temporary noise barriers at inner city demolition, renovation and construction sites.

Quick and Safe

The Protect System’s logical construction sequence ensures it is assembled and dismantled quickly, easily and with absolute safety.

Temporary Roofs

Temporary roofing is a key component of keeping structures safe and protected while work is being carried out. Installed alongside shrink wrap encapsulation, temporary roofs provide protection and security while work is being carried out on a structure or in a building site.

Brazier Scaffolding uses two types of temporary roofs from Layher – the Keder Roof System and the Mobile Roof System.

Keder Roof System

Layher’s Keder (PVC roof sheet) Roof Systems are a robust temporary weather protection solution ideally suited to multiple applications in the residential, commercial, industrial, infrastructure and event sectors. The roof system provides a quick, economical and easy to assemble solution to meet a diverse range of weather protection applications. The system is also modern and visually appealing, making it a great option for applications where site aesthetics are an important factor.

Mobile Roof System

The Mobile Roof System’s a unique advantage is that it provides free-moving weather protection. Designed from the ground up with mobility in mind, its innovative transport mechanism is central to this design. The mechanism mounts the roof system on purpose-built nylon runners, which fit on steel guide rails fixed to the supporting scaffolding system. The mechanism holds the runners captive against the guide rails, allowing smooth and low-friction lateral motion.

 
 

Shrink Wrap Encapsulation

Shrink wrap encapsulation both protects a site from the elements and also prevents building site debris from exiting the site. Shrink wrapping helps to keep projects on track, with less time lost due to poor weather conditions.

Brazier Scaffolding uses a 100% recyclable shrink wrap, which is attached to the structure and then heated to shrink the product to the structure, providing a weatherproof environment. This system also lest in the light, unlike problematic tarpaulins which tend to leak and flap in the wind.

Our shrink wrapping solutions can be customised for any site. Such options include printing how a building is expected to look once completed, artistic design elements or a historical picture of the structure under the shrink wrap.

Brazier also offers debris netting, which aids in controlling falling debris and rubbish while cutting downwind. It creates a safer environment for both workers and the public.

Aluminium Mobiles

A type of roll around scaffolding, this aluminium system is on wheels, allowing it to be mobile. As modular structures, aluminium mobiles can be customised to suit most heights and widths of various construction sites.

Brazier uses AliScaff aluminium scaffold towers for its alumunium mobiles, an in-house brand owned by Brazier Scaffolding.

Any height can be achieved with a large selection of end frame heights, rising in 400mm increments up to 2.0m end frames. We hire out and can also erect and dismantle if required. We have constructed mobiles ranging from 1.0m high, to 40m long by 10m wide by 14m high.

We also erect mobiles inside tanks and other vessels with small manhole entries.

Mobiles come in widths of:

  • 700mm wide

  • 1200mm wide

  • 1900mm wide

And bay lengths of:

  • 2400mm long

  • 1200mm long

 
 

GEDA Goods and Personal Hoists

GEDA is a world leader in safe and efficient equipment used in the construction industry. Brazier Scaffolding employs the use of GEDA goods and personal hoists to safely access difficult parts of sites and to safety load, unload and install scaffolding and equipment.

GEDA Personal Hoists

GEDA’s range of goods and personnel hoists are ideal for construction applications that require safe, cost effective and fast lifting. They are designed to transport building materials and/or workers, the hoists are lightweight and robust, and offer a comprehensive set of safety features.

Brazier Scaffolding uses:

  • Layher 200 Hoist/GEDA 200 Z

  • GEDA 500 Z/ZP

  • GEDA 500 Z/ZP SL Platform

  • GEDA 1200 Z/ZP

  • GEDA 1500 Z/ZP

  • With access to the full GEDA Hoist range

GEDA Rubbish Chutes

Compared to other rubbish chutes, the wear-resistant GEDA rubbish chute has an extremely long working life due to its 6mm walls and the additional 3mm anti-wear ribs. Made from high quality, light weight, highly shock-resistant plastic, GEDA rubbish chutes can be fixed to scaffolds, walls, inclined roofs or flat roofs. The design also makes for efficient stacking.

GEDA rubbish chutes are equipped with a double hook and an efficient fixing device, allowing for fast and safe connection. Chute branch sections allow access from several levels. Various accessories are also available, such as special clamps for windows or parapet walls, and dust free collars for use in public areas. GEDA chutes have been tested for use up to 40m in height.

Depending on the circumstances and needs, GEDA offers a large variety of balcony clamps, galvanised chains, fixing frames and hand winches with 21m or 41m for an intelligent setup. With accessories like balcony clamps or fixing frames it is possible to assemble the waste chute at any height and at any spot of the scaffolding, wall or roof.

 

Site Fencing

Site fencing is an essential component of any construction project to ensure the security of the site.

Brazier Scaffolding carries a large stock of temporary site fencing to meet any requirement.

Our standard fence panels are 2.0m high by 2.2m long. With a range of extra accessories, we can erect and dismantle quickly on most terrain to any shape and size. We carry 1.0m high fencing also.

  • Available for dry hire

  • We manufacture our own fencing
