Trench Shields

Are All Trench Shields Created Equal? Hardly.

Other manufacturers' trench shields (also called trench boxes) are built with straight sidewalls that bow in under pressure when they are in the ground, making them almost impossible to pull. Trench Shoring Company's unique flex-Shield trench boxes are the only ones with a mid-section camber, making the box inches wider in the middle. When Flex Shield is in the ground and under pressure, its sidewalls become straight. The result: ease of movement on those deep, tight, hard-pulling jobs. The Flex Shield actually feels self propelled as it flexes.

You've Got Four Wall Protection! Flex-Shield™ Trench Boxes

Trench Shield / Box Advantages

  • Narrow Sidewalls - Flex-Shields are constructed with the narrowest possible sidewalls, so less soil has to be excavated and there is less backfill and compaction.

  • Blunt Edges for Flexibility - By eliminating the knife edge found on the bottom of many trench boxes, the Flex-Shield can be used in any configuration when stacked in deep trenches.

  • Lightweight But Strong - Flex-Shields are built to give the highest pounds per square foot (PSF) for use in the deepest trenches.

  • Engineered to Work for You - Both standard and custom Flex-Shields are designed by a Registered Civil Engineer in conjunction with Trench Shoring Company specialists.
