What Height scaffold tower do I need to hire?
Access towers are very adaptable. There are many different sizes and categories to choose from, ensuring you always find a scaffolding to suit all your construction needs.
We measure all our sizes to the work platform, where your feet will be. Therefore, the average person has a reach of around 2m. If, for example, you needed to reach 5m, a 3.2m platform height tower would be suitable in this case.
If you’re looking to hire a mobile scaffold tower, an aluminum scaffold tower, portable scaffold hire, or any access tower rental, you need to know the price per meter. Here is a handy price guide on our range of scaffold towers available to hire. If you need a smaller one person tower the MiTower (Working heights of 6m, platform height of 4m) is very popular.

How to use the scaffold tower safely
- Set Up on a Flat, Firm Surface: Always ensure that the scaffold tower is set up on a stable, level surface. Avoid using the tower on uneven or soft ground that may cause instability.
- Check Stability Before Use: Before climbing the tower, double-check that the locking claws, stabilisers, and adjustable legs are properly secured.
- Use the Ladder System: Always use the integral ladder to access the platform. Never climb up the side of the tower as this can cause instability.
- Maximum Load: Do not exceed the maximum safe working load of 950kg. This includes the weight of the workers, tools, and materials on the platform.
- Never Overreach: When working from the platform, keep your body centered and avoid overreaching, as this could cause the tower to become unstable.
- Check for Damaged Parts: Before each use, inspect the tower for any damage or wear. If any parts are damaged or missing, stop using the tower and replace the parts before continuing.
- Ensure Proper Guardrails: Make sure the platform is equipped with proper edge protection and that it is locked securely in place to prevent accidents.
- Follow Health and Safety Regulations: Always adhere to local regulations and guidelines for working at height, and ensure all workers are trained in proper scaffold safety procedures.
