In addition to aluminium other materials are used to assemble scaffolding among the most common we have:

• Aluminium scaffolding
• Wooden scaffolding
• Metal scaffolding
• Fiberglass scaffolding
• Galvanised steel scaffolding

Aluminium is also a material that weighs very little and is very easy to cut or transport.

Companies like Construction Safety Albury are concerned about providing efficiency and safety to perform any type of work at heights, complying with the technical standards and corresponding accreditations.

Aluminium Access Towers

Among the benefits of aluminium access towers are:

• An access tower allows you more freedom of movement.
• Possibility of storing tools or materials
• Stability both indoors and outdoors, which allow you to work safely and without worries at vertigo heights.

We find it very interesting to tell our customers everything they need to know about the use, assembly, disassembly and construction and stability characteristics of this type of mobile work platform.

Types of access towers

There really is no standard classification or typing so that we can perform a formal classification of rolling scaffolds, we believe that they can be classified according to the most manufactured and used models.

For what type of work is the supply of access towers demanded?

When should we use this type of towers?

There are many situations in which you cannot justify the assembly of a fixed or tubular scaffold, hanging from the roof or motorized, etc.

• Inspection work
• Fast execution jobs.
• Cleaning, painting, carpentry, etc.
• Small façade rehabilitation works, etc.
• Maintenance work at height.
• Repair of lights on decks, walls, etc.
• Industrial constructions

That is why, for those work at height where the rental of steel scaffolding is not necessary, the rental of an aluminium access tower is extremely effective.

However, in projects where you have to work with lighting, street lamps, ceilings, etc. It is really necessary that our work platform is in continuous movement to reach the areas where we have to carry out our work.

Aluminium platform for scaffolding

In cases where the most logical is the use of a light work platform that can offer a work surface that is comfortable so as not to resort to vertical jobs and therefore professional (which are usually scarce and expensive) and a certain load capacity.

Scaffolding Accessories

It is important to keep in mind that these are closed systems or modules, prepared to fit, but also configurable on demand, according to the needs of the work, with spare parts and parts for towers such as spindles, wheels, brackets and all parts you need

Tubular scaffolding

Tubular scaffolds have created a revolutionary system both in the manufacture of products and in engineering solutions of work structures, bringing practicality to their products.

Scaffolding Dimensions

When we go in search of aluminium towers, one of the aspects that should concern us most is what type of work we are going to do and if we are going to opt for a mobile platform that serves us for everything or if we are going to opt for something personalised or for jobs very specific.

These are some of the types of work done with scaffolding towers. Different heights, diverse configurations. Depending on the height you need to reach, which is usually taken as a reference the tread height (a user has to measure 1.8m on average).

You should keep in mind that, at a higher height, it is more advisable to opt for structures and platforms with more body, wider, or rectangular style and with different configuration in terms of parts, stabilisers and other components.

That is why we usually have a technician to clarify all this kind of technical questions.

Layher scaffolding

The access towers of Layher are platforms created under the culture of light and easy assembly, also having a thick and resistant material, with aluminium tubes that do not have to envy the one used by some substitutes that do nothing but destabilize the structure.

Layher is a leading leader in this type of systems and also provides a large amount of information, documentation, technical sheets, etc. so that distributor can give you a quality system with the reliability of a brand with great experience both in solutions for all types of situations, as well as in transport and logistics.

Mobile scaffolding

Do not forget that there is nothing more stable than a tubular scaffold.

A scaffold with wheels can be really useful as long as you think it is necessary that mobility is much more important than stability.

However, in projects where you have to work with lighting, street lamps, ceilings, etc. It is really necessary that our work platform is in continuous movement to reach the areas where we have to carry out our work.

Where is mobile scaffolding used for?

• Inspection work
• Quick Execution Jobs
• Cleaning, painting, carpentry, etc.
• Coatings
• Rooftops
• Plastered
• Sanitation
• Small façade rehabilitation works, etc.
• Maintenance work at height,
• Repair of lights on decks, walls, etc.

Industrial buildings

In cases where the most logical is the use of a light work platform that can offer a work surface that is comfortable so as not to resort to vertical jobs and therefore professional (which are usually scarce and expensive) and a certain load capacity.

Personal safety equipment

Is it necessary to wear personal protective equipment on access towers?

It is not necessary to carry EPIS with the function of protecting the worker from possible falls in height, because the access tower itself is provided with collective protection systems (skirting boards, guard rails or bars that limit the movement of the worker).

What, if you have to take into account is an assembly plan proposed by the manufacturer, in which the instructions of the assembly to be installed must be followed. Specific work procedure or safe work plan.

However, if you are not a promoter, designer, contractor, they cannot ask you for a safety and health plan for a safe work or work procedure.

In addition, depending on the context in which the work will be carried out, it is possible that some type of specific safety plan may have to be carried out, and in that case, a series of individual protections for the worker can be requested in case of working on a mobile scaffolding platform and that the company must provide and provide for the worker:

• Safety helmet
• Security shoes
• Reinforced Leather Gloves

Fall protection system if your height safety is not guaranteed by collective protection mechanisms or perimeter fall arrest systems such as networks and temporary railings.

It will consist of a fall harness.

Anchoring element (rope with energy absorber or a retractable device)

Connector or carabiner with a minimum opening of 15 cm so that you can anchor it to the aluminium tubes of the access tower.
