A Smarter, Safer Way to Work at Heights

At Sidewall Scaffolding, safety and efficiency are everything. That’s why we proudly use a New Zealand-made roof edge protection system. It’s not just another piece of equipment — it’s a more innovative way to keep your team safe and your project on schedule.

Let’s break down why this matters for you.

What Is Roof Edge Protection?

When building or working on a roof, safety is key, especially at heights. Roof edge protection is a lightweight guardrail system that keeps workers safe without needing complete perimeter scaffolding.

Unlike traditional methods, these systems are easy to install and remove, and they don’t interfere with other trades. Think of it as intelligent scaffolding for rooftops — faster, safer, and more cost-effective.

Why We Use It — And Why It Benefits You

✅ 1. Better Safety on Site

This system is designed specifically for New Zealand building conditions. It protects everyone working at roof level — builders, roofers, electricians — without needing them to climb over scaffold rails or balance on planks. That means fewer risks and fewer accidents.

✅ 2. Faster Setup = Quicker Jobs

Compared to traditional scaffolding, edge protection is quick to install and dismantle. Less time spent setting up means more time for the real work — and fewer delays for your build.

✅ 3. It Saves You Money

Because it’s faster and simpler than full scaffolding, your labour and hire costs are lower. For small-to-medium jobs, such as re-roofs, new builds, or garage additions, the savings can be substantial.

🔧 4. It Works on Almost Any Roof

Whether it’s a new house, a re-roof, a shed, or a parapet wall — there’s a system for it. That means we can protect your team and your site no matter what kind of project you’re working on.

✅ 5. Fully Compliant with NZ Standards

This system meets all local height safety rules. When you work with Sidewall Scaffolding, you’re working with professionals who care about doing things right — and keeping your site in line with WorkSafe requirements.
