FAQ

  • What is a Keder roof used for in construction?

    A Keder roof is a temporary roofing system used to protect construction, industrial or marine work areas from the elements. The system combines aluminium frames with tensioned sheeting that slides into tracks, creating a sealed, weather-resistant cover.


    It's widely used across Cairns and other tropical regions to ensure safety and reduce weather-related delays during large-scale or long-term projects.

  • How long does it take to install a Keder roof?

    Installation time depends on the size and complexity of the site, but most standard setups can be completed quickly, often in a few days. Keder roofs are modular and pre-engineered, which speeds up assembly.


    This fast turnaround makes them ideal for shutdowns and tight project schedules where downtime needs to be minimal.

  • Can a Keder roof handle strong winds or heavy rain?

    Yes. Keder roofs are designed to withstand harsh weather, including strong winds and heavy rainfall, which makes them ideal for use in storm-prone regions like Cairns.


    The sheeting tension system prevents water pooling and reduces wind lift, while the robust framing keeps the structure secure even in challenging conditions. Always ensure the system is installed by experienced professionals for full safety compliance.
