Cantilever scaffolding provides a specialist access solution where traditional, ground-supported scaffolding cannot be installed. At Lundon Scaffolding, we design and erect cantilever scaffold systems that allow safe access in restricted locations, including areas above pavements, roads, entrances, or fragile ground conditions.
These systems are commonly used on complex sites where maintaining clear access below is essential.
What Is Cantilever Scaffolding?
Cantilever scaffolding is a scaffold structure that is supported at one end and projects outward from a building. Instead of being founded on the ground, the scaffold is securely anchored back to the structure using engineered supports.
This type of scaffolding is ideal when ground-level access is restricted or where erecting scaffolding from the ground would obstruct public areas or site operations.
When Is Cantilever Scaffolding Used?
Cantilever scaffolds are commonly required in situations such as:
- Buildings located directly above pavements or roads
- Sites with limited or no ground space
- Areas where access below must remain clear
- Projects involving fragile roofs or lower structures
Each cantilever scaffold is carefully planned to suit the building layout and load requirements.
Design and Installation
Cantilever scaffolding requires detailed planning and, in many cases, specialist design. Our team assesses structural conditions, load paths, and fixing points to ensure the scaffold is stable and compliant.
All cantilever scaffolds installed by Lundon Scaffolding are erected by qualified professionals and, where required, supported by engineered drawings and load calculations.
Safety and Compliance
Safety is critical when installing cantilever scaffolding. Our systems are designed and erected in accordance with current health and safety regulations and industry best practice. Regular inspections are carried out throughout the hire period to ensure continued stability and safe use.
