Hydraulic shoring systems are designed for restricted access, service trenches, and short-run excavations where speed, flexibility, and adjustability are critical.
ShoreWorX Hydraulic Shoring provides certified, modular support that can be installed quickly using light machinery, making it ideal for utility works and maintenance projects where trench geometry or access limits rule out larger box systems.
Where standard trench boxes or panels cannot be installed due to access or geometry, hydraulic systems provide a practical and compliant alternative. They are not designed for deep or long-run trenching. If excavation depth or duration increases, a different system may be required. Hydraulic aluminium shoring is best suited for:
ShoreWorX hydraulic aluminium shoring systems consist of:
The system is designed to:
This makes it particularly effective for maintenance and repair works in live environments.
Hydraulic aluminium shoring is commonly used for:
These systems are designed to solve access problems, not depth problems.
Internal width depends on spreader selection and configuration. Final setup is confirmed based on trench width and site conditions.
Correct installation is critical, particularly when working near live services. Installation support is treated as part of the product — not an optional extra.
Engineering and temporary works considerations
Hydraulic aluminium shoring is often used in complex environments, even when excavations are shallow.
