As rooftop mechanical services become increasingly common on commercial and industrial projects, architects and designers require solutions that provide safe access for maintenance while protecting roof performance and visual appearance.

Goleman HVAC Platforms are engineered aluminium platform systems designed specifically for supporting HVAC equipment, refrigeration plants, and air handling units on metal roof structures. The system creates a stable, level working platform around rooftop plant, allowing safe access for future inspection, maintenance, and servicing.

Applications

Goleman HVAC Platforms are suitable for commercial buildings, warehouses, healthcare facilities, schools, manufacturing facilities, and other projects requiring rooftop mechanical services.

The modular platform system can be configured to suit a wide range of rooftop layouts and can be integrated with walkways, guardrails, ladders, and roof access systems to create a complete rooftop access solution.

Key performance benefits

Protects roof performance

The platform support structure is mounted to the roof crest, helping maintain natural water flow and reducing the risk of drainage restrictions often associated with conventional support systems.

Flexible design

Platform trusses can span around skylights, roof penetrations, and other rooftop services, providing designers with greater flexibility when coordinating plant layouts and maintenance access routes.

Durable aluminium construction

Manufactured from high-grade aluminium, Goleman HVAC Platforms provide a lightweight, high-strength solution with excellent corrosion resistance for long-term rooftop performance.

Engineered load capacity

Available in both 2.5kPa and 5.0kPa load-rated configurations, the system can be tailored to suit varying equipment loads and maintenance requirements.

Optional screening systems

Architectural screening options are available in a range of colours and heights to help minimise the visual impact of rooftop plant equipment while maintaining airflow around mechanical services.

Design and installation support

Goleman Group works with architects, engineers, consultants, and contractors to provide design assistance, supply, installation, certification, and ongoing inspection services throughout New Zealand.

By incorporating dedicated rooftop plant platforms during the design stage, architects can improve long-term maintenance access, enhance safety outcomes, and create more organised rooftop service zones without compromising roof performance.
