20kN Load capacity frame facade scaffolding for Facade Work
Choosing the right scaffolding finish is crucial for balancing cost, durability, and safety on the jobsite. At Zhuozhan, we provide two main options: painted Frame scaffolding and hot-dip galvanized Frame scaffolding. Painted Frame scaffolding offers an economical solution suitable for short-term projects, while galvanized Frame scaffolding delivers superior corrosion resistance and a longer lifespan, making it ideal for large-scale or outdoor applications. By understanding their differences, you can select the most cost-effective and reliable option for your project needs.

Comprehensive evaluation |
The ordinary painted door frames have deficiencies in their anti-corrosion performance. The paint layer is prone to peeling off during long-term use or outdoor exposure, causing the steel to rust and affecting the structural safety. Although the procurement cost is low and they are suitable for short-term or indoor projects, they require frequent maintenance in the future. Re-painting will increase additional costs and also affect the overall construction progress. |
The product is treated with hot-dip galvanizing, resulting in a uniform and thick zinc layer on the surface. Its corrosion resistance is significantly superior to that of painted products, and it can be used outdoors and in humid environments for a long time without rusting. The structural strength is high, the repeat service life is long, the maintenance cost is low, and the overall cost performance is better. It is particularly suitable for projects with high requirements for safety and long-term use. |
Application Scenarios
Spray Paint Frame Scaffold
Description:
Spray-painted frame scaffolding is widely used for indoor and short-term projects. Its lower cost makes it an excellent choice for budget-sensitive contractors while still ensuring safety and stability.
Ideal Applications:
Indoor renovation and decoration – painting, plastering, ceiling work
Low-rise residential construction – villas, apartments, housing projects
Short-term projects with tight budgets – temporary structures, small-scale jobs

FAQ
Q1: Which type of frame scaffold should I choose for my project?
If your project is short-term or mainly indoors, Painted Frame Scaffold is a cost-effective option. For outdoor, long-term, or coastal projects, Hot-Dip Galvanized Frame Scaffold offers superior corrosion resistance and durability.
Q2: How long can each type last?
Painted Frame Scaffold: Around 3–5 years with proper maintenance.
Galvanized Frame Scaffold: 10+ years of service life with minimal upkeep.
Q3: Can I customize the color of the frame scaffolding?
Yes, for painted scaffolds, you can choose custom colors such as red, yellow, blue, or others for branding or safety requirements. Galvanized scaffolds typically have a metallic finish, but additional coating can be applied if needed.
Q4: What is the price difference between painted and galvanized scaffolding?
Painted scaffolds have a lower initial cost, making them ideal for budget-sensitive projects. Galvanized scaffolds have a higher upfront price but deliver better long-term ROI due to extended lifespan and low maintenance.
Q5: Is it possible to mix both types in one order?
Yes, we can arrange mixed shipments of painted and galvanized scaffolds in one container to meet your different project needs.
Q6: How do I maintain painted scaffolds to extend their life?
Regularly inspect for scratches or paint peeling and reapply anti-rust coating as needed. For galvanized scaffolds, only occasional cleaning is required.
Q7: Do you provide OEM/ODM customization?
Yes, we support OEM/ODM services including logo stamping, color customization (for painted), packaging, and product sizes based on your project requirements.
