Trench Shoring & Shielding

Protective systems are a key element in making sure your trenching and excavation site is safe. They’re required for trenches that exceed five feet in depth or aren’t cut entirely into stable rock.

Addressing the Risk of Trenching and Excavation Site Cave-Ins
You can reduce the risk of cave-ins by implementing robust protective measures, conducting a thorough soil analysis, proper training, and maintaining vigilant inspection routines.
Walk-behind trenchers are more compact and maneuverable, perfect for smaller jobsites with tight spaces or numerous obstacles, such as residential lawns and backyards. Ditch Witch’s CX-series walk-behind trenchers, for example, are easier to transport and operate in confined areas, offering a practical solution for landscapers and contractors working on smaller-scale projects. Both types of trenchers are designed to meet specific needs, ensuring that operators can choose the best equipment for their particular job conditions. Pictured is the C30X.
