Product description
United Rentals' range of Heavy-duty and Larger Aluminium Trench Shoring Boxes are ideal for the majority of light to medium-weight shoring applications. Coming in 4.2m, 6.2m, and 7.2m variations with a huge range of struts to choose from, our Aluminium Shoring Boxes are a customer favourite for a variety of reasons, but namely, their incredible strength: weight ratio and robust design means less damaged equipment and lower machinery costs for your next project.
Coming with both lower and upper sections, United Rentals Aluminium Shoring Boxes allow for vast and varying depths, and can be connected together using panel connectors to build boxes as tall as required. The knife-edge panels allow for dig and push installations in sandy conditions, and the foam-filled sections resist water infiltration inside panels. They also come with reinforced steel corners for less damaged equipment during installation which means fewer costs and headaches for contractors on-site when using this gear.

Product Information
Another value-add to this already great product is United Rentals pre-build service, where if transport conditions permit, United Rentals will pre-build your shoring box before delivery so that when it arrives at your job site, it’s ready to install straight away to save even more time and money on your project.
Suited for
United Rentals Aluminium Shoring Boxes are an incredibly versatile and safe trench shoring system for general construction and utilities contractors, with the flexibility to use a range of different sizes and lengths.
The superior strength: weight ratio of our shoring boxes aids in effectively supporting trenches up to any depth, provided the Working Load Limit (WLL) of the relevant box is not exceeded.
