Product Description

Product Description

Our NEW DIY Scaffold Tower has an unparalleled specification when compared to other DIY towers on the market, with its fully welded 40mm frames and colour-coded braces making it very easy to build. It is Very versatile - can be used for many jobs around the home and garden from decorating the staircase and cleaning windows to pruning trees etc. As it is constructed from aluminium it is lightweight and therefore easy to use and transport, yet safe & sturdy for your peace of mind. Also it will not rust like the galvanised steel alternatives on the market. Exclusive Colour coded braces supplied making the tower quick and easy to build and dismantle. Very strong- with maximum load capacity of 150KG (23.5 stone). Tower tubing has a 40mm diameter with a "ribbed" non-slip surface for added strength and safety. Welded frame structure, as seen on our industrial scaffold towers, for ultimate strength (Other DIY towers have horizontal bars that pass through the uprights and are then "crimped" on the other side. These are not as strong). Tower is climbed internally through a trapdoor which is then lowered to become part of the platform. 2 Stabiliser bars for greater stability. Platform height can be set in increments of 30cm allowing the tower to be used over a range of different heights. Tower can therefore be used part erected giving excellent flexibility. 2 wheels fitted for easy movement of the tower. The tower has end height adjustment so can be configured to be used on steps and stairs as seen below. Length- 1.71m. Width- 1.22m includes stabiliser bars (0.60m without). Maximum Platform Height-2.73m. Maximum Working Height- 4.75m (i.e. level to which someone of average height can safely reach). Platform Size- 1.44m x 0.50m. Storage Size LxWxH (metres)- 1.96 x 0.70 x 0.24. ISO 9001-2008 manufacturer. Optional outriggers available. Extension kit available to increase working height if required at a later date. Tower available in 3 other sizes.

3.0 out of 5 stars okay - but be aware, 6 July 2010
This review is from: 5m DIY Aluminium Scaffold Tower (Misc.)
Bought the product a couple of weeks ago and whilst it is fairly stable to use, it does require a flat surface. If there is a slight incline then the tower will lean as there is no fine adjustment of the individual legs.

Also be aware that whilst the picture shows a man reaching to just below the guttering, the 5m tower does not reach that far on my house - unless you are a very tall person - so make sure that you measure up well first and choose the right height.

5.0 out of 5 stars BPS Access Solutions 5m Scaffold Tower, 25 July 2010
By Mr. M. Sanders "TX41" (Powys, UK) - See all my reviews

This review is from: 5m DIY Aluminium Scaffold Tower (Misc.)
BPS Access Solutions 5m Scaffold Tower

I needed a light and easy to store Scaffold Tower for use in painting a London Routemaster Bus I am restoring and this tower looked the ideal solution.

Construction

The tower is made from 40mm Ribbed aluminium tube which is welded construction, it is very well finished and the sections are nicely rigid without flexing.

Steel Brace tubes fit on the sides to provide strength. The tubes are fixed by plastic wingnut which are strong and easy to do up by hand

Wheels on the rear of one of the main frame bearers makes this unit easy to move about The unit can be laid on the ground and raised by one person

Ease of assembly

The tower is easy to assemble, I would suggest building up the lower section upright first, then putting the tower on end to assemble the top deck to save reaching up and climbing to assemble the top parts, it is then easy to right the tower by one person to the working attitude of straight up

Overall observation

This is a really great piece of equipment whether used at the full 5m height or as a part built tower for hedge trimming or low level building work. Much safer than a ladder and with a platform for equipment

If using for work on the outside of a house I would recommend buying extra stabiliser bars to allow use at the full height, unless you can attach the tower to a static object in my case I can strap the fame to the life rail on the bus so it is very safe to owrk on at full height.

This tower unit is easy to assemble and store, can be expanded with extra parts if required and provides a safe platform for your DIY work I have rcommended this to other bus owners
