Frequently asked questions
What are steel acrow props?
Steel acrow props are adjustable props that help to safeguard construction structures, supporting load bearing walls, ceilings and trenches. Created from heavy duty adjustable steel, they can support large weight capacities, helping to make the project environment safe and secure whilst work is conducted.
Are there different types of acrow props?
At The Metal Store, we offer a series of temporary support products that can help to support load bearing walls. This includes steel acrow props in 5 different sizes, push-pull acrow props and acrow prop supports.
Can steel acrow props be used outside?
In cases where load bearing walls, ceilings or trenches are outside, you may need to expose steel acrow props to the elements. A steel acrow prop can be used outside, providing that you conduct regular maintenance checks. All of our steel acrow props are powder coated, helping to protect them from extreme weather.
What should I do if my steel acrow prop gets damaged?
A damaged steel acrow prop could be a danger to project workers and members of the public. Because of this, you should immediately replace any damaged acrow props. Keep in mind that over the course of a project, they may suffer some general wear and tear. Because of this, you need to inspect acrow props for damage if you want to reuse them in a different project.
