Temporary Works That Keep Your Site Moving
Access isn’t just a safety issue – it’s a logistics issue. If your workers, materials, or subcontractors can’t move freely across the site, your programme stalls.
That’s where temporary works come in. Done right, they remove bottlenecks, improve safety, and keep pressure off your critical path.
At Alpine, we build temporary structures that don’t just meet compliance, they actually make your site easier to run.
Public Gantries That Keep the Street Open
On urban sites, you’re often building right up against the boundary. That means scaffolding, hoisting, and façade work happen directly above public footpaths or traffic lanes.
Our temporary public gantries protect the zone below, without blocking access.
- Designed to carry overhead scaffold loads and sheeting
- Allows pedestrian or vehicle access to continue safely
- Built to spec and signed off with structural documentation
- Integrated into your safety file and public protection plan
We’ve installed gantries on CBD developments where foot traffic couldn’t stop -and handed over without disrupting city operations.
Loading Decks That Take Pressure Off the Crane
Waiting for crane time to offload materials is a classic site delay. When trades are working across multiple floors, a single point of delivery doesn’t cut it.
Alpine supplies and erects scaffold-supported loading platforms that sit flush with slab levels – giving you dedicated drop zones without tying up plant or hoists.
- Suitable for formwork, brick packs, glazing, and finishes
- Fully designed for load capacity and tie-in
- Can be relocated as floors progress
- Speeds up vertical distribution across levels
No more queueing for crane time. No more moving stock twice.
Temporary Staircases That Actually Work
Ladders might tick the compliance box, but they don’t solve real access problems, especially on multi-level builds with high foot traffic or material movement.
Our temporary stair towers provide:
- Fast, safe vertical movement
- Compliance with SANS 10085 and site H&S protocols
- Modular configurations to suit different slab heights
- Solid footing and handrails for consistent use
These systems are ideal for apartment blocks, hotels, office builds – any site where constant slab-to-slab movement is required by multiple teams.
Integrated Design and Clean Handovers
Every temporary structure we build is:
- Designed for its exact location and use
- Built by certified teams
- Inspected and signed off with full documentation
That means no arguments at audit time, no mid-build adjustments, and no grey areas when H&S walks the site.
We work with your engineer and site agent to make sure temporary works fit the build sequence – not fight it.
Build Momentum – Not Workarounds
We’ve supported commercial and residential sites across Cape Town with gantries, decks, stairs, and scaffold systems that keep things moving.
When you work with us, you don’t get makeshift. You get engineered access that speeds up the programme and protects the people working under pressure.
Let’s build the temporary works that make your permanent structure easier to deliver.
