The features and benefits aluminum shoring jacks

Aluminum shoring jacks are a flexible, effective way to apply pressure to the sides of a trench using a hydraulic cylinder. This pressure works to prevent trench collapses by creating an equilibrium that ensures that the trench’s walls remain stable. Where traditional trench boxes are a protective measure, hydraulic shores are a preventative measure. In addition to ensuring the safety of your workers, hydraulic vertical shores offer a wide range of benefits.

The benefits of hydraulic vertical shores

They require only one person to install, allowing them to keep pace with the excavation as it is being dug.
Because they are lightweight and compact, they can be transported to and from the job site in the back of a pick-up truck.
They are often a more cost-effective option, with prices being substantially lower than standard trench boxes.
The design of hydraulic vertical shores makes them ideal for jobs where utilities must be crossed.

While there is a learning curve involved, hydraulic vertical shores have been around for more than forty years. Their longevity in the market is due to their consistency, reliability, ease of use, and cost-effectiveness.
