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.

Scaffold Tower Assembly Overview
Follow these basic steps for assembling your scaffold tower. Note, this is a general overview and is not a replacement for the full instruction manual. Please refer to the official user guide for complete assembly and safety instructions.
Place all the components on a flat surface. Ensure that all parts are present by cross-referencing with the checklist in the official user guide.
Start by assembling the base frame of the tower. Use the color-coded components to quickly match each part for a smooth setup.
Once the base frame is securely assembled, attach the platform at the appropriate height. Secure the platform using the locking pins to ensure it is stable and won't shift during use.
The ladder is already part of the frame and does not need to be separately attached. Ensure that it's securely in place and provides safe access to the platform.
Adjust the self-leveling adjustable legs to ensure the tower is level and stable on the ground surface.
- Always use the ladder to access the platform and ensure it's securely locked before climbing.
- Never exceed the safe working load of 950kg.
- Start building with the smallest height frames at the base.
- Install platforms every 2 meters, with guardrails placed before climbing to reduce fall risk.
- Guardrails should be 1 and 2 rungs (0.5m and 1.0m) above the platform.
- Do not stand on an unguarded platform above the first rung.

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.
