High level scaffold tower
September 1st 2007 Maintenance industries are now
using industrial scaffold towers for
jobs that require long working
periods at low or intermediate
heights. In order to meet
requirements of the new working at
height legislation, Zarges has
manufactured an industrial scaffold
tower which is mobile and can be
folded. Suitable for both indoor
and outdoor use, the tower is
versatile, folding easily for transport
or storage. This makes it suitable
for those who need to move their
equipment between rooms or sites.
The castors, which allow it to be
moved with ease, are braked for
safety. A double width unit can
increase the standard platform
width of 0.75m to 1.35m and the
platform height of 1m can be
increased to 1.55m by adding
on a further guardrail unit.
At any time additional modules
may be purchased to provide up to
a 12m maximum platform height.
This industrial folding scaffold
tower system is made to EN1004
Class 3, 200 kg/m2 standards.
"For maintenance and cleaning,
users usually need to carry with
them their equipment and tools,"
says Alistair Twigg of Zarges UK.
"In order to work safely
therefore, they need space to
operate and room to move without
jeopardising their stability and
safety. That's why the scaffold
tower can provide the solution.
You can have stability, room to
carry out the task with equipment
easily available. Then when you've
finished working in one location,
you simply un-brake the wheels
and move the tower to the next
position." More articles from Zarges (UK) Ltd: |
