Suspended Cradle Platform
You may have seen large buildings with almost 30 floors or even above. Have you wondered how at such high heights, painting of external walls, glass fixing, external brickwork, and all the other external work needed to build the building is done on the facades? Let us understand this!
You may have seen large buildings with almost 30 floors or even above. Have you wondered how at such high heights, painting of external walls, glass fixing, external brickwork, and all the other external work needed to build the building is done on the facades? Let us understand this!
Constructions at such high heights need a proper mechanism for building, and they should be carried out safely. Using a suspended platform cradle is one of the most reliable techniques instead of conventional scaffolding.
What is a suspended cradle system?
A suspended cradle consists of a suspension system mounted on a roof with an operating platform and a man riding a hoist. The platform is suspended by steel wires or ropes, depending on the cradle type. There are many types of suspended cradles available according to work needed.
A suspended cradle system is a scaffolding used for exterior building maintenance and construction. It consists of a platform, or “cradle,” suspended from an overhead support structure using cables or ropes. The platform can be raised and lowered using a pulley system, allowing workers to access different building levels without needing ladders or other types of scaffolding.
The suspended cradle system consists of the –
- Suspended platform
- Pedal hoists
- Safety locks
- Suspension device
- Balance weights
- Wire ropes
The initial setting up of suspended platforms and final removal is faster than traditional methods.
Uses of a suspended cradle for different structures
Suspended cradles are not only used for buildings but also for several other systems, such as –
- Industrial facilities such as factories and warehouses
- Various entertainment venues, such as stadiums
- Building power stations, wind turbines, and other hydroelectric plants.
- Maintenance, or even building new heritage sites and monuments.
- Building bridges also need cradles and even other offshore projects.
Thus, you can observe the importance of a suspended cradle in most construction projects. Cradles are more often used in cities than rural areas, with various functions that can be carried out.
A suspended cradle is a type of scaffolding system typically used for exterior building maintenance and construction. The system consists of a platform, or “cradle,” suspended from an overhead support structure using cables or ropes. The platform can be raised and lowered using a pulley system, allowing workers to access different building levels without needing ladders or other types of scaffolding.
Here are some examples of tasks that can be performed using a suspended cradle:
- Building cleaning and maintenance: Suspended cradles can be used to clean windows, paint, or perform other types of care on the exterior of a building.
- Construction work: Suspended cradles can be used to install or repair features such as exterior cladding, roofing, or awnings.
- Restoration work: Suspended cradles can be used to restore historic buildings or architectural features that are difficult to access using traditional scaffolding methods.
- Sign installation: Suspended cradles can be used to install signs on tall buildings, such as billboards or marquees.
- Inspection: Suspended cradles can be used to conduct checks of bridges, towers and other tall structures.
It is important to note that suspended cradles are specialized equipment typically used by professional scaffolding and building maintenance companies. They require specialized training and certification to operate safely.

Certain limitations of the Suspended Cradle Platform
Cradles are easy to install on the roof of a building. This suspended platform cradle eases and has it all sorted out in case of work. But with its advantages, it indeed comes with some limitations. Some of them are as follows –
- There is some safe working load applicable that cannot be exceeded on the suspended platform.
- There is also an estimate of the maximum number of persons that can be carried through the platform at one time.
- It is available at a fixed maximum length and not more than that for one suspended platform. If you reach the total size height, then it cannot be increased further.
- The rated lift speed is also fixed for suspended platforms. This ensures the safety of the customers.
Hence, there is a capacity for how much weight can be carried on the platform at once, and even the maximum height length is fixed.
