Are you looking for an innovative, lightweight trenching solution?

GAP is the sole distributor of EZE Shoring equipment in the UK.

Simple, safe, easy and quick are just some of the comments made by the workers installing GAP’s EZE Shoring solutions on a day-to-day basis.

The high-performance composite system comprises only five different components and with no pins, clips, slings, pumps or hydraulics to worry about, each individual component weighs less than 25kg.

This video illustrates how our customers save time and money due to the quick assembly of the equipment.

Exceptional Customer Service

GAP is constantly reinvesting in our product fleet, people and processes to ensure our customers get the hire experience and quality they deserve. With generous stock levels and our own transport, we can offer a quick response time for urgent requirements. If you can’t come to us, our bespoke vehicles can come to you with HIAB delivery and collection, ultimately giving you more time to get the job done.

GAP's Trenching & Shoring division has 14 strategically placed depots nationwide, achieving full UK coverage for our customers.

In April 2018, GAP purchased MV Trench Support, a Scottish-based trenching and shoring company. The acquisition further extended our product fleet and brought an additional wealth of trenching and shoring experience to GAP.

Design Service

To accompany our extensive product range, we offer a temporary works design service which is available on all trenching and shoring products. We work closely with our customers to supply the relevant equipment required by site - this often requires a site visit by our knowledgeable technical sales representatives or regional hire desk and operational staff to discuss various options and obtain the best solution.

GAP’s value-added trenching and shoring solutions tick all the boxes when it comes to reliability, quality and price. Explore our Trenching & Shoring product catalogue here.
