Home / Our Services
Temporary access contracting

From first drawing to last inspection.

Scalworks is not a hire desk that stops at the gate. We design, supply, erect, dismantle and certify working platforms, so people on Kenyan sites can work at height with a system that is planned, not improvised.

Our services

Complete temporary access, not just scaffolding hire.

We work for contractors, developers, facilities teams and industrial operators who need access that matches the building, the load and the programme. Hire the kit, or put our crews on the job. Either way, one company stays accountable.

The access cycle

Four services that belong together.

This is the core of every Scalworks job, whether the scaffold is a mobile tower for maintenance or ringlock on a high-rise pour.

01

Scaffolding hire & sales

Frames, towers, ringlock, props, ladders and accessories from the yard: hired for the programme or sold into your own stock. See the full product list.

02

Design & engineering

Scaffold design and consultation around height, load, sequence and edge protection, so the platform is specified before steel leaves Nairobi.

03

Erection & dismantling

Site crews to put the system up, keep it working through the job, and strike it down without tearing the programme or the building.

04

Inspection & certification

Checks and documentation so a working platform stays fit for the people who use it every day, not a one-off look at handover.

Two Rivers Mall

Erection for live commercial sites

Pipe-and-clamp and modular systems erected against occupied buildings, with debris netting, working lifts and crews in PPE. This is the Two Rivers Mall facade: the same discipline we take to hotels, hospitals, towers and churches listed in our project showcase.

Crews on hospitality facades

Erection and working lifts on an occupied hotel elevation: PPE, platforms and a sequence that has to live with guests, glass and public pavement. Hire the kit, or put Scalworks crews on the job.

On the slab

Formwork support systems

Steel props, U-heads and falsework planned for suspended slabs and beams. Access and support are one conversation: the deck has to stand while concrete goes in, then come down in the right order.

Interior access on heritage and worship spaces

Working platforms inside a church: height for finishes, lighting or fabric repair without treating the nave like a warehouse. The same interior discipline we take to All Saints Cathedral and Word of Life, Kariobangi.

Specialised access

When a standard bay is not enough.

High-rise, plant shutdowns, cantilevers and maintenance windows need a different conversation. These are the services we run alongside the core cycle.

Temporary access solutions

Working platforms specified for the task, not a catalogue default, including towers, frames and modular systems hired or erected to the programme.

Industrial maintenance access

Access for plants, factories and facilities work where production, shutdown time and existing services dictate how the scaffold can stand.

High-rise building scaffolding

Multi-lift systems for towers and dense commercial work, including ringlock installations with crews, platforms and base jacks set to the slab.

Suspended & cantilever scaffolding

Access where the ground cannot take a standard bay: overhangs, voids and elevations that have to be engineered, not guessed.

Formwork support systems

Props and U-heads for slabs and beams, coordinated with the pour sequence so support comes out only when the structure can take itself.

Industrial & construction support

Access planned around the industries we serve: construction, energy, water, infrastructure and property maintenance.

Site support

Beyond the scaffold itself.

Steel, equipment and safety advice sit with the same team, so the access plan does not fall apart at the edges.

Steel fabrication

Fabricated pieces when a standard fitting will not close the gap: brackets, specials and site steel that belong with the scaffold, not a second contractor.

Construction equipment hire

Power floats, construction hoists, concrete mixers and related plant hired with the access kit when the site needs more than frames. Listed on Our Products.

Site safety consultancy

A second set of eyes on the access plan, inspections and edge protection for teams who need the scaffold to meet Kenyan safety standards and stay that way.

How we take a job

Height, load, programme.

Tell us those three things. We quote the system, the accessories and, if you need it, the crew. Delivery from Nairobi, work across Kenya.

  • Scope the access, not only the tonne-count
  • Supply from stock or erect with our crews
  • Inspect and certify working platforms
  • Strike down when the programme says so
  • 24/7 support when the sequence shifts

Safety first

People at height come first.

All our scaffolding systems comply with Kenyan safety standards and international best practices. Regular inspections and maintenance keep platforms fit for use on commercial facades, industrial plants and residential sites.
