Package Includes

A 6.5m flat pack office linking kit – galvanized and powder coated provides a weatherproof, secure corridor for connecting separate portable buildings, site offices, and welfare units on construction sites or business campuses. For example, this kit is perfect for linking two office cabins placed 6.5 metres apart, creating a continuous indoor walkway without expensive bespoke construction. However, unlike makeshift temporary covers, this flat pack system features durable galvanized steel framework with a powder coated finish. As a result, you receive a professional, long-lasting linkway that arrives in compact boxes for easy transport and assembly. Learn about site welfare and accommodation standards from official HSE guidelines.

Why Choose a Flat Pack Linking Kit for Your Office Cabins?

Bespoke linkways are expensive and slow to install. In contrast, this flat pack kit arrives in manageable boxes that fit through standard doorways and can be carried by two people. Consequently, the 6.5m length provides ample passage space for standard cabin layouts. Moreover, the galvanized and powder coated finish offers superior rust protection compared to painted steel. Thus, you gain both cost savings and long-term durability. See site cabin connection ideas on Pinterest for layout inspiration.

Key Features of This Flat Pack Linking Kit

The dual galvanized and powder coated finish is the defining feature of this kit. For instance, the galvanized base layer provides sacrificial corrosion protection, while the powder coated top layer adds colour and scratch resistance. Similarly, the 6.5m length bridges the standard gap between two cabins placed end-to-end or side-by-side. Furthermore, the flat pack design means all panels, roof sections, and fixings are pre-cut and pre-drilled. Finally, the system includes weatherproof seals at both connection points. Check UK site accommodation regulations before ordering linkways.

Dimensions and What’s Included

This kit is designed for straightforward assembly. For example, the clear internal width is 1200mm, comfortable for single-person passage or wheelchair access. Likewise, the internal height is 2100mm, matching standard cabin doorways. If you need a different length, custom sizes from 3m to 12m are available on request.

The kit includes:

• Galvanized steel base frame (6.5m)

• Galvanized steel wall panels with powder coated finish

• Galvanized steel roof panels with powder coated finish

• All fixing brackets, bolts, and nuts (pre-drilled)

• Weatherproof seal strips (both ends)

• Assembly instructions (step-by-step with diagrams)

Durability for Permanent and Semi-Permanent Use

This linking kit is built for longevity. First, the galvanized coating (Z275 rating) provides corrosion protection even if the powder coat is scratched. Second, the powder coated finish (RAL 9010 white or RAL 7016 grey) resists UV fading and chipping. Third, all steel components are 1.5mm thick for structural rigidity. Finally, the roof panels feature a slight pitch for water runoff. Read our site cabin linking guide before purchasing.

Assembly and Installation

Two people can assemble this kit in approximately 4–6 hours. For example, start by laying the base frame on a level foundation between the two cabins. Likewise, bolt the wall panels to the base frame, then add the roof panels. Finally, attach the weatherproof seals to both cabin connection points. All tools required are standard spanners and screwdrivers (not included). Concrete foundation pads are recommended for permanent installations.

Optional Upgrades

For instance, add an LED lighting kit for illuminated passageways. Likewise, a non-slip rubber floor matting (6.5m length) provides safe footing. Furthermore, lockable end doors can be added for security when the linkway is not in use. Contact our site cabin team for bulk orders of 3+ kits.
