What Is a Hang On Platform?


A hang on platform is a specialised scaffolding system that attaches directly to a building's structure, providing a secure working area for construction and maintenance tasks at height. These platforms offer exceptional stability and cost-effectiveness for high-rise projects.


Key Features and Benefits


Our hang on platforms feature robust steel construction with advanced safety locking mechanisms for secure attachment to building facades. The platforms include non-slip decking surfaces and adjustable levelling systems.


These systems reduce labour costs by up to 30% compared to traditional steel scaffolding hire setups. The modular design allows quick installation and dismantling, saving valuable project time. Each platform supports loads up to 675kg while maintaining a lightweight profile for easy transportation.


Typical Applications in Brisbane


Brisbane’s growing construction sector demands efficient mid-rise and multi-storey access solutions. We regularly deploy hang on platforms for:

  • Window installation and glazing work
  • Facade maintenance and painting
  • External wall cladding installation
  • Air conditioning unit servicing
  • Building inspections

Compliance With Australian Safety Standards


Workplace Health and Safety Queensland reports that over 35% of serious construction injuries in the state involve falls from height, making compliant edge and platform systems a top enforcement priority.


Our hang on platforms meet AS/NZS 1576 requirements for suspended scaffolding systems. Each unit features clearly marked load ratings and safety instructions in line with WorkSafe Queensland guidelines, aligning with our commercial scaffolding hire solutions designed for mid-rise construction and complex access projects.


To maintain this standard, we conduct mandatory safety inspections before every installation and keep detailed certification records. Regular maintenance checks ensure all components meet current safety standards, and each platform undergoes annual third-party certification for full compliance.
