Frequently asked questions

Common questions from commercial project owners and managers.

Anything commercial — facade access and inspections, industrial abseiling, mobile / tower / crawler crane lifts, material and passenger hoist hire, rigging and engineered lifting jigs, rooftop installations, mechanical unit lifts, shutdown and make-safe works, and restricted-access installation, maintenance or remedial works.

Once your scope is validated, most jobs receive aligned quotes from verified specialist contractors inside 24–72 hours, depending on complexity. Urgent shutdown or make-safe works are prioritised.

Yes. Every specialist contractor in the KeyTrade network is licence-checked, insurance-verified and compliance-reviewed before they’re invited to quote. We only match operators capable of delivering engineered, high-risk or high-value works.

Yes. Upload what you have — a brief, photos, drawings, a draft scope-of-works, or just the problem — and we’ll help structure it before tender. Many engineered works start as a problem, not a spec.

Both. KeyTrade is used for one-off urgent access and make-safe works, planned shutdowns, and larger multi-stage lifting programs. Scope, program and risk profile are matched to contractors with proven capability for that profile of work.

Sydney is our primary network — rope access, crane hire, hoist hire and rigging — with coverage across NSW commercial and industrial sites. Major regional and interstate works can be supported through the same network.
