Tube and Fitting or System Scaffolds:
Docherty Scaffolding is able to offer both traditional tube and fitting and system scaffolds. We ensure that when planning each installation we can combine the time-saving advantages of a system scaffold with the flexibility of tube and fitting scaffolds. This ensures that we are providing you the best system to meet your requirements.

Safety Netting and Guard Rail Systems:
We supply a wide range of fall prevention and protection systems for working at height, including safety netting, Guard Rail Systems, and staircase access solutions.

Access Platforms, Hoists
We can supply and construct access scaffolding and work platforms custom built for your exact needs, giving you the safest and most effective solution when it comes to access equipment hire. Whatever you need to lift or dispose of, we have the ability to deliver a wide range of equipment from a rope and wheel, chute to hoists.

Temporary Roofs:
We erect temporary roof scaffolding, from a small-scale solution to cover a domestic property to commercial buildings that must be operational throughout works.
Temporary roofing is an excellent solution for the construction industry. Protection over the work area ensures minimal time is lost due to bad weather, allowing for faster project completion and subsequent costs savings.

Scaffold Design
Docherty Scaffolding implements Scaffold design and Scaffold build with two objectives in mind. The first is to protect all those who set foot on our scaffolds and the second is to use our experience and expertise to save our clients time and money.

Through a strategic alliance, we can provide a Scaffold design package for all scaffold erections that fall outside the scope of “basic scaffolds” which is detailed within NASC guidance TG20:13. For non-scaffold design and calculation works we use the NASC TG20:13 Compliance Sheet. We support all our designs with the appropriate site-specific drawings and design calculations.

Scaffold Inspections
Scaffolds require regular inspections to check they are safe to use. We have experienced people trained in advanced scaffold inspection and we employ the scafftag system.
