Scaffold Rental – Scaffold Equipment Rental is another way we, at METI, work with the community.

Along with our Safety Training, Programs and Online Safety Training we offer Scaffold and Scaffold Equipment Rental to companies and organizations, whether in the private or public sector.

Scaffold Equipment We Have

We provide tube & coupler scaffold, system scaffold, and basic frame scaffold rental.

Working on square or rectangular structures and facades?  METI now rents frame scaffolding, which is easy to erect with minimal skill, offering smooth and efficient erection times. At METI’s Sydney campus, we carry two types of frame scaffolding: Arch Frame which is also known as masonry frame, because it is very popular in the brick laying industry, and Square End Frame. Our frame scaffolding is compatible with guardrail systems, which we also have in stock. Our tube and coupler components are compatible with our frame scaffolding, with tie-ins, and work to build a means of access. The arch frames that we carry are 5 feet in width and 6’4” in height. The square end frame we supply are 5 feet in width and 5 feet in height. We also carry frame ends which are 5 feet in width but yet three feet in height, to help accommodate for elevations which are hard to meet using the standard 5-foot frames. Our frame bracing is designed to accommodate, 7 foot long bays, and 10 foot long bays. We also carry a large selection of accessories such as:

• 8 ” castor wheels
• Socket jacks
• Screw jacks
• Complete guardrail systems, coupling pins and retaining pins, steel toe-boards and automatic closure swing gates with optional toe board
• Outriggers
• Side-brackets

Whether you need tube & coupler, system or basic frame, we can deliver scaffold gear to where you need it.  Contact us today: training@metiatlantic.com or 902-539-9766.

System Scaffolding Rental

System scaffolding is a heavy duty scaffolding with galvanized coating which is great to withstand our ‘salty’ east coast environment. System scaffolding is also compatible with tube and coupler, and is great for any type of industrial, commercial, or even residential construction and renovation, as it is erected with individual up-rights, horizontal members, and vertical diagonal bracing. All horizontal and vertical components come in dimensions as follows:

• Half- meter
• One meter
• Meter and a half
• 2 meter and three-meter increments

Some additional accessories that we carry for system scaffolding include:

• Screw jacks and collars
• Adjustable toe-board
• Side brackets
• Swing gate with an optional toe- board
• Retaining pins

System scaffolding is best suited for square or rectangular structures or facades, but is also very popular for inside and outside tanks, because of its connections on the vertical members allow you to locate horizontal members at different angles. Some advantages of system scaffolding include: very easy and efficient to erect to meet that deadline you are hoping to meet, multiple connections on the vertical members allow for decking elevations to be every 20 ’’ if desired, and compatible with tube and coupler, as well as coming in different dimensions unlike frame having a set height and width.

Tube and Coupler (Clamp) Rental

Tube and coupler, also known as tube and clamp, come in increments of one foot, up to six-foot tubes, from there on, the lengths of tubes come in 2-foot increments until reaching 20 feet. The couplers we provide are set at right angles to make 90-degree connections, allowing other couplers to actually pivot around and central hinge point, allowing you to set tubes at different angles to be used as braces. Our end to end couplers allow you to connect tubes end to end, in both vertical and horizontal orientation. Tube and coupler scaffolding is the most popular for hard to access areas, irregular shaped structures and circular structures, as there are no fixed dimensions to erect. Some advantages include:

• Light weight
• Easy to handle
• Can be built around any irregular shape
• The light weight construction is also great for shipping, and freight costs

Some other accessories carried at our facility include:

• Base plates
• Accessory baskets
• shipping racks made of HSS tubular steel
• Beam clamps
• Tube to frame clamps
• Right angle couplers
• Swivel couplers
• End to end joiners
• Spigots
• Chicken heads
• Starter brackets for ladders
• 3 ‘ and 5’ non- skid ladders

We also carry steel planks which are perforated, slip resistant high strength steel. Increments are available in one meter, one and one-half meter, two meter and three meter.
