Whatever you’re digging, we’ve got it covered — but shoring isn’t one-size-fits-all.
The right system depends on the job, ground conditions, depth, access, and the machinery on site. This guide lays out the options clearly to help you understand which systems are typically used in different situations.
These are guides only, not final specifications. Many excavations require temporary works input or engineering review to confirm the safest solution.
Our team is here to help you work through those decisions.
It is not a substitute for site assessment or engineering review where conditions require it.
If something doesn’t look straightforward — that’s normal. That’s where we step in.
Deeper excavations, stacked systems, or high ground pressure often require engineering review to confirm configuration and compliance.
Confined spaces, live services, and restricted access areas frequently require additional review to confirm suitability.

You’re not handed a drawing and left to figure it out — you’re supported through the process.
