Sites across construction, mining, aviation, energy, and logistics demand fast, flexible solutions for vertical access. Well‑designed temporary stairs  (sometimes called a temporary staircase or portable stairs) delivers a practical solution: Easy assembly in under 20 minutes—no structural steel scaffold bay required. Full stair rail systems with a compliant upper surface of the handrail 1 m above the tread surface. Adjustable legs maintain correct riser height, tread depth, and vertical rise. Built from solid aluminium material, so there are no hidden manufacturing defects. Key point: When the only alternative is ladders—whether step ladders, fixed ladders or improvised job‑made ladders—temporary stairs cut fall risk by 70 % and keep foot traffic flowing.

Falls from height continue to be the leading cause of workplace injuries and fatalities across the UK. During truck loading and unloading, the risk is especially high when workers climb onto trailers or unstable structures without proper edge protection. That’s where SafeSmart Access’ SafeLoader stands apart – offering a safer, more efficient alternative to traditional hangman systems, which are still commonly used on UK worksites despite their limitations. SafeLoader: Safer by Design What’s the difference? Hangman systems focus on fall arrest – catching a person after they’ve already fallen. The SafeLoader is all about fall prevention: reducing the risk of falling in the first place with purpose-built safety features. With it’s 45-degree stair access, grippy platform surface, interchangeable rails, and safe working load capacity of 500kg, the SafeLoader delivers confident access in high-risk environments. Use Cases Daily truck loading and unloading Warehouse logistics Fleet and heavy vehicle maintenance Energy, mining, and infrastructure works Events and stage setup Zero Falls means zero compromise During No Falls Week, let’s re-evaluate the equipment we trust to keep workers safe. If your worksite is still relying on outdated hangman setups, it might be time to step up to a smarter system. Safer Access. Smarter Loading. That’s the SafeLoader

The Scaffolding Industry is experiencing a shift, driven by the urgent need for facade replacements in high-risk buildings. Following devastating fires linked to combustible cladding, the construction sector is under pressure to replace unsafe materials with compliant alternatives. While the necessity for this work is clear, the path to execution is fraught with delays, legal disputes, and logistical bottlenecks. With over 3,000 high-rise buildings identified as “At Risk” across London boroughs alone, and thousands more across the UK, the demand for scaffolding solutions to facilitate facade remediation is rising.  Why Proscaf is the Leading Solution In response to these challenges, main contractors are turning to Proscaf as a preferred solution for facade replacement projects. The advantages are clear: Increased Load Capacity: Proscaf offers superior loading capabilities, making it an ideal choice for facade work that requires heavy duty support for materials and workforce areas.  Minimal Bracing Requirements: Unlike traditional tube and fit scaffolding, Proscaf requires fewer braces, allowing for greater efficiency and flexibility in confined environments.  Fire Safety Compliance: The risk of fire remains a top concern for buildings undergoing facade replacement. Many contractors now prohibit the use of timber boards, opting instead for non-combustible alternatives. Proscaf, with its integrated steel or aluminium decking, aligns with these safety measures, ensuring compliance with regulations.  Labour Efficiency: In an industry where skilled labour shortages and productivity pressures are ongoing challenges, system scaffolding offers a streamlined solution. Faster to put up and dismantle than traditional scaffolding, it reduces labour costs while increasing efficiency on site.  Leveraging Industry Standards: TG30 and Beyond With the introduction of TG30 guidance by industry governing bodies this year, the scaffolding sector is seeing a formal endorsement for the benefits of system scaffolds. This guidance highlights the efficiency, safety, and reliability of system solutions, providing an added layer of credibility to those
