Builders, trades & site storage

MATERIALS . FIXINGS . TOOLS . STACKED . READY TO GO .

Foldable steel cages and stillages for builders, fitters, formwork and scaffold crews. Load the job in the yard, fork or crane it onto site, and bring the frame back folded flat. Designed, tested and shipped Australia-wide.

What goes in them

Built for the way a site actually runs

Parts for a job

Kit the whole job into one cage — fixings, brackets, plumbing and electrical fit-off, hardware. It leaves the yard complete and comes back with what was not used, still counted.

Building materials

Timber offcuts, bricks and blocks, sheet stock, formwork ply, reo mesh and bagged product held in a steel frame instead of loose on the slab.

Scaffolding & formwork

Bundled tubes, fittings, couplers, props and clamps stay together and forkable. No loose steel rolling around the site or the truck tray.

Plant & equipment

Power tools, generators, compactors and hoses locked in one secure cage that lifts on and off by forklift or crane.

Waste & strip-out

Come strip-out, the same cage becomes a waste crate — fill it, fork it straight onto the truck and it is off the slab. No double handling, no skips, no tipping it twice.

Why cages beat loose stock

Less double handling. Less shrinkage. Less wrap

Load once

Materials are handled once in the yard instead of piece by piece at the truck, the gate and the level.

Nothing walks off

Fixings and tools stay in a countable steel frame, so what left the yard is what comes back.

No shrink wrap

Nothing to wrap, nothing to cut open on site — and no single-use plastic film heading to landfill.

Stack six high

In the yard or store, loaded cages interlock and stack up to six high with no racking to install.

One crate off site

Load it as a waste crate, fork it onto the truck and it is gone — no skip, no tipping it twice, no double handling.

Tie down & transport

Fork pockets, lifting lugs and a square frame make the cage easy to tie down and transport — load it once, strap it, and it ships as one unit.

Site storage questions we get asked

Tell us what a typical job load looks like and how it gets lifted. We size the cage around the work, not the other way round.

How do storage cages streamline a building site?

One cage holds the whole job — fixings, brackets, plumbing and electrical fit-off — so it leaves the yard complete and comes back counted. No loose material on the slab, no shrink wrap to cut, no double handling at strip-out. The same frame stacks six high in the yard and folds flat for the return trip, so the site stays organised and the crew keeps moving.

Are the cages strong enough for a building site?

Yes. Welded steel frames, forklift entry on all four sides, and every unit load tested and stamped before dispatch. They are built for daily rough handling, not tidy warehouse work.

Can they be craned onto a slab or upper level?

Lifting lugs are fitted so a loaded cage can be craned as one unit, or forked from a truck tray. Tell us how you plan to lift and we will spec the frame to suit.

How high can they stack?

Loaded cages interlock and stack up to six high in a yard or store, so the same footprint holds six times the material with no racking to install or bolt down.

What happens when the job finishes?

Empties fold flat in seconds, so a truck brings back roughly four times the cages it delivered and your yard is not full of empty frames.

What finish do they come in?

Painted in a hard-wearing RAL powder coat as standard, with a heavier-duty coating available for yards and exposed site storage.

Can they be branded or numbered?

Yes. Colour, plates and numbering can be set for volume runs so cages track back to a site, a crew or a hire fleet.
