Side frames & connecting frames are structural aluminium, galvanized mild steel and/ or powder coated steel finish. Guard rails are square thick wall aluminium extrusions with rails a minimum of 915 mm above deck level .

High end stirrups are designed with a high “fair lead”, this means that a tall stirrup will restrict the platform from rolling inboard to outboard to a maximum of 15 degrees. High end stirrups are normally fixed at each end of the platform.

Fitted to rear guard rail capacity & dimensions to suit length of power cable.

Available electric powered or passive type with single or double drum mounted on platform stirrups.

Fitted on top of each stirrup designed to electric power supply to hoist when switch contacts strikes plate on suspension rope at top limit of travel.

Integral with each hoist preset to safe working load plus 25% designed to operate limit switch & cut power supply if overloading of platform occurs.

Trailing supply cable is fitted with female CEE plug for connection to the control box & supplied with cable support clamp length as required.

Permanent powered platforms come equipped with non marking inboard face rollers. Extendable building face rollers are often used to clear building projections.

Consist of hinged continuous aluminium bar mounted on the underside of working face of platform, designed to operate limit switch & interrupt electric power supply to both hoists, in the event, bar is pushed upwards by obstruction on the building façade during descent but still allowing platform to be operated in upward direction.

Anti tilt mercury switch assembly mounted in central box designed to interrupt electric power. If platform becomes out of level to a preset angle of 10 to 15 degrees leading hoist to automatically stop allowing other hoist to continue until platform is relevelled.

Type 6061 – T6 aluminium alloy mill and powder coated finished platform system of engineered length and width. It suits application based on load bearing frame with non slip aluminium deck, soft rubber wall rollers and caster wheels.

Platform is supplied complete with two or four galvanized high tensile steel wire ropes of length as required.

The primary function of a platform stirrup is to provide a structural frame on which to mount the suspension motors made of structural aluminium hot dip galvanized steel & or powder coated steel. Twin drum electric powered wire winders are located within the stirrup, within the platform or beneath the platform.

Platform to be powered by a TIRAK make hoist.

Electrical controls for both hoists & wire winder motors are contained in central control box & mounted to rear guardrail. Standard layout contains:
