2 Plank Walkway

An elevated external working platform combined with edge protection — providing trades with a stable working and access area around elevated sections of a building.

Overview

What is 2 Plank Walkway?

A 2 plank walkway is an elevated external working platform combined with edge protection. The two-plank platform provides trades with a stable working and access area around elevated sections of a building where an external platform is required. It combines the function of a working platform with perimeter fall protection, allowing trades to work safely at height along the external face of a building.

How it works

Our Approach

01

Site Assessment

We assess the building to determine where a 2 plank walkway is required and plan the most practical installation layout.

02

Platform Installation

The two-plank platform is installed at the required height, providing a stable working surface along the external face of the building.

03

Edge Protection Integration

Edge protection is integrated with the platform, providing a physical barrier at the outer edge of the walkway.

04

Trade Access

Once installed, trades can access and work along the platform with fall protection in place for the duration of their work.

05

Adjustments as Required

If the working area or access requirements change, we can adjust the system to suit.

06

Removal on Completion

Once the relevant trades have completed their work, we return to remove the system and clear the site.
