Scaffolding That Keeps Your NYC Project Moving
Sidewalk sheds, supported scaffolds, and suspended systems , engineered, permitted, and installed across all five boroughs. From first call to final teardown, we handle the part of the job nobody wants to think about.
Licensed & Insured · DOB Compliant · OSHA-Trained Crews · Emergency Installs Available · Serving All 5 Boroughs
In New York, Scaffolding Isn't Optional. Getting It Right Is.
Every day your building sits without a compliant sidewalk shed is a day of exposure , to violations, to delays, to liability you didn’t budget for. And every day your crew waits on a scaffold that showed up late or wasn’t built for the work is a day of payroll burned.
Rama Scaffolding Inc. exists to remove both problems. We’re a New York scaffolding contractor based in Harlem, working with property owners, general contractors, architects, and building managers who need access systems that go up fast, hold up under inspection, and come down clean.
No subcontracting your job to whoever’s free. No vague timelines. Just the right structure, on your site, when you said you needed it.

What Can We Do?
Sidewalk Sheds & Overhead Protection
The most requested structure in New York , and the one the DOB looks at hardest. We design, permit, and install sidewalk sheds that protect pedestrians while keeping your entrances, storefronts, and loading zones usable. Heavy-duty and standard configurations available, with lighting and signage to code.
Supported Scaffolding (Frame & System Scaffolds)
Ground-supported platforms built to your elevation and load requirements. Whether it's a two-story townhouse restoration or a full building wrap, we engineer the layout around your work sequence , not the other way around.
Suspended Scaffolding & Swing Stages
Motorized and manual suspended platforms for high-rise work where ground support isn't practical. Installed with proper rigging, tiebacks, and outrigger design, and inspected before a single worker steps on.
Shoring & Reshoring
Temporary structural support during concrete pours, slab work, and structural modifications. Load-rated, engineered, and installed by crews who understand what's holding what.
Debris Netting, Chutes & Containment
Netting, tarping, and debris chute systems that keep material where it belongs and neighbors off the phone with 311.
Scaffold Rental, Maintenance & Dismantling
Long-term rentals with scheduled inspections and maintenance throughout the project. When the work is done, we take it down and haul it out , on schedule, without damaging what you just paid to restore.
