Aluminum Suspended Platforms in UAE

In the UAE’s fast-paced construction environment, safe and efficient façade access is important. At Al Wisam Trading Co. (AWTC), aluminum suspended platforms are one of our core product lines, and we are proud to be recognized among the leading suppliers in the UAE region.

Designed for high-rise construction, façade installation, maintenance, and finishing works, our aluminum suspended platforms offers durability, strength and stability under demanding site conditions.

 

 

ZLP800 Aluminum Suspended Platform, Performance You Can Rely On

 

The ZLP800 suspended platforml is designed to deliver powerful lifting performance while maintaining exceptional safety and ease of operation. Having a rated load capacity of 800 kg, this suspended platform safely accommodates multiple workers along with their tools and materials, making it ideal for medium to heavy-duty construction and façade projects. Its maximum capacity is to be followed as per cite and city regulations. It has an ascending speed of 8–10 m/min which ensures efficient vertical transportation while also maintaining smooth and controlled operational stability. The modular suspended platform size ranges from 1 to 7.5 meters in length and 0.69 meters in width, allowing flexible adjustment to suit different building widths and structural requirements. Equipped with high-strength 4 × 31 SW + PP steel wire ropes measuring 8.6 mm in diameter, the system delivers excellent durability, stability, and secure suspension throughout operation.

The ZLP800 is powered by the reliable LTD 8.0 hoist, designed for consistent and dependable lifting performance. With a rated lifting force of 8.0 kN, a 1.8 kW electric motor, 400 V voltage, and 15 N·m braking torque, the system ensures smooth elevation, precise load handling, and enhanced braking control for added safety. To further protect workers at height, the platform integrates the LSG20 safety lock system. This advanced safety mechanism supports a steel rope angle adjusting range of 3°–8°, withstands an allowable impact force of up to 20 kN, and operates with a rope lock distance of up to 100 meters using 8.6 mm steel ropes. In the event of wire rope failure or excessive platform tilt, the safety lock automatically engages, preventing accidents and ensuring maximum operational security.

 

The ZLP800 system is designed for safe vertical transport on high-rise buildings and is commonly used for:

  • Façade glass installation
  • Aluminum cladding
  • Plastering and painting
  • External maintenance
  • Cleaning operations

     

Manufactured with high-grade aluminum structure, this suspended platform provides durability while remaining lightweight and corrosion-resistant, ideal for UAE weather conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions

What load can a suspended platform carry?

A standard ZLP-class platform is rated around 630 to 800 kilograms depending on model, covering two operatives with tools and materials. The working rule that matters: rated load reduces when the deck is extended, so always check the configuration table for your deck length.

How is a suspended platform kept safe?

Each hoist climbs its wire rope with an independent safety lock on a second, separate rope that clamps instantly if the platform tilts or a rope fails. Counterweighted suspension beams on the roof, tested ropes and daily checks complete the system that site inspections look for.

Suspended platform or mast climber: which one for facade work?

Cradles win on rigging speed, cost and reach flexibility for inspection, sealant, painting and glazing replacement. Mast climbers win when heavy materials and long crews must stay at the face for months, as in blockwork or cladding production. Many towers use both at different phases.

What comes included with a ZLP800 platform package?

The package includes the hoists, safety locks and the electric control box; wire rope and electrical cable are specified separately to suit each building's drop height, and modular deck sections assemble to the length the elevation needs.

Does Al Wisam supply counterweights and technical guidance?

Yes. Platforms are supplied with counterweights and rigging guidance from our Sharjah base, and our team can review your elevation drawings before you order.
