Void Protection FAQs

A void protection platform is a temporary engineered safety deck designed to cover open areas—such as stairwells, shafts, or floor openings—during construction. It prevents falls from height, enables safe working access, and is a mandatory WHS requirement on most multi-level residential and commercial builds.

Yes, we supply and install engineered stair void protection platforms that comply with AS/NZS standards. These systems allow work to continue safely around stair penetrations while protecting workers from falls during framing, sheeting, and fit-out stages.

Absolutely. All our void protection systems are engineered, load-rated, and installed to comply with Queensland WHS codes of practice and Australian Standards (AS/NZS 1170). We also supply compliance documentation and certifications for site audits or inspections.

Yes, our systems are fully modular and can be site-customised to suit varying slab dimensions, complex void shapes, or multi-storey configurations. We work closely with your project managers and certifiers to ensure a tight fit and full compliance without compromising workflow.

Void protection should be installed immediately after framing and before any work near exposed stairwells or floor voids begins. This ensures maximum safety during electrical rough-ins, plumbing, plastering, and other overhead tasks. Early planning reduces delays and ensures your site remains WHS compliant from day one.
