HAKI Stair Tower
Guidance has been issued by numerous construction bodies, recommending one-way systems on construction sites to aid social distancing and reduce the potential spread of coronavirus. The HAKI Stair Tower, famous for its speed of erection, safety features and market-leading strength (4kN/m2), is the answer to this.
Compatible with the HAKI Universal scaffolding system and traditional tube and fitting, stair towers can be added to structures or tied into existing buildings to provide safe access and egress around sites.
HAKI Cladding can be used as screening between up and down routes and larger landings can be implemented to allow passing if needed.
The HAKI Compact Stair Tower can also be used where space is limited. It has a smaller footprint and can handle loadings of up to 1kN/m2.

HAKI Public Access Stair (PAS) and Bridge System (HBS)
Like the HAKI Stair Tower, the Public Access Stair (PAS) can be used in public spaces like railway and bus stations, schools, and events, to complement one-way systems.
The robust stair has a heavy loading capacity of 7.5kN/m2 so can handle up heavy footfall of up to approximately 36 per lift. Child-safe handrails, solid slip-resistant treads, and cladding to the stair also add extra safety benefits.
Alongside the PAS, the HAKI Bridge System also provides safe temporary pedestrian access for heavy footfalls. The HBS can be used with the PAS to support separation of the public during COVID-19.
The HBS is well-known in the market for it’s quick and safe installation methods, built from safe scaffolder zones and being rolled-out into position. This helps significantly reduce possession times of rail and road.
HAKI Cladding System can be used to enclose the temporary bridge to reduce the risk of falling objects and falls from height.
HAKI Universal
The HAKI Universal scaffolding offers advanced adaptability and time- and cost-savings during erection, through a unique ‘hook-on’ assembly and lightweight components. The strength of components and secure locking-mechanisms also ensure that temporary structures are safe for both public and operative use – ideal for event platforms to maintain social distancing.
HAKITEC Roof and Shelter
Offering durable weather protection, the HAKITEC range protects operations from disruptive weather conditions and offers temporary shelter for crowd management.
Easy and quick to assemble in-situ or through roll-out or craning into position, the roof can cover spans of up to 30m and be adapted to all types of buildings or construction sites.
HAKITEC shelters offer further portability for controlled environments, by wheeling into position.
Vertical containment can also be included in the solution to offer temporary buildings.
