Stairwell Tower Scaffold

The need for safety on both industrial and domestic stairwells has long been a problem for the building industry.

Helix has the new Stairwell Tower in its catalogue.

The basic stairwell access pack provides platform levels between 1.5m and 2.7m at 0.3m intervals, 0.7m wide and features special narrow base plates, and non slip platform boards. Extensions are available to 4.2m high.

Easy access from both sides of the stairwell unit to the platform is provided by a 'walk through ladder frame'. Simply walk through the frame and climb up the ladder. This frame design solves the problems experienced on narrow and most domestic staircases. Another answer to your questions from Helix Towers.
  • Width available, 0.7m
  • Length available, 1.5m
  • Platform Heights 1.5m through to 2.7m
