Hoists & Vertical Access
Integrated Vertical Access Systems For Materials & Personnel
Archis Scaffolding offers a range of hoist and vertical access options to support safe, efficient transport of materials and personnel across construction sites. Where vertical movement is a critical part of site logistics, we work with our sister company Archis Hoist Solutions to provide fully integrated systems, including Alimak hoists, as part of a complete temporary works package.
By combining scaffold structures with mechanical access equipment, we deliver coordinated vertical access strategies that meet the operational, spatial, and programme requirements of each site.
Coordinated Vertical Access Delivery Across Projects
Our vertical access offering is delivered through close collaboration between our scaffolding division and Archis Hoist Solutions — ensuring all structures are compatible, compliant, and installed in sequence with site logistics. Hoist installations are tailored to site-specific factors such as lift height, load capacity, frequency of use, and public interface.
All hoists are installed and maintained by trained operatives, with safety systems, landing gates, and edge protection configured to meet current regulations and client specifications.
Heavy-duty rack-and-pinion hoists for transporting materials to multiple levels efficiently.
Safe and compliant transport for personnel across multi-storey sites.
Dual-purpose systems providing flexibility for sites with mixed access demands.
Installation of scaffold-integrated hoist gates, access decks, and tie-ins.
Planning and installation of multiple vertical access points to serve phased or large-scale developments.
Regular inspections, maintenance, and certification in accordance with LOLER and manufacturer guidelines.
Integrated Scaffold & Hoist Installations
Hoist and scaffold systems are often deployed in tandem to optimise movement on site. Our close working relationship with Archis Hoist Solutions allows us to deliver access structures and vertical lift equipment as a single, coordinated service. This integration reduces delays, avoids compatibility issues, and ensures hoist bases, landings, and scaffold ties are all designed with precision.
All hoists supplied meet current safety regulations and are maintained to manufacturer standards. Alimak systems are selected for their performance, reliability, and suitability for a wide range of construction environments.
