Description

Alto Medium Duty Ladderspan Tower: Reliable & Versatile Access for General Work at Height

The Alto Medium Duty Ladderspan Tower provides a robust, stable, and highly versatile platform for a wide range of tasks requiring safe access at height. Engineered from high-grade aluminium, this mobile scaffold tower combines strength and durability with ease of assembly and manoeuvrability. It's the go-to solution for tradespeople and contractors who need flexible, compliant, and efficient access for various construction, maintenance, and installation projects.

Features

  • Robust Aluminium Construction:
    • Manufactured from 2mm thick, 48mm diameter aluminium tube, providing exceptional strength and rigidity. This heavy-duty gauge ensures greater resistance to impact and deformation compared to lighter-weight towers, contributing to a longer service life.
    • The 48mm tube diameter makes it compatible with standard scaffold tube and fittings, allowing for easy tying-in to structures or incorporating specialized components.
    • Features fully welded joints, eliminating potential weak points found in crimped or riveted systems, and enhancing the overall structural integrity and durability.
  • Ladderspan Access (Internal Ladder System):
    • The "Ladderspan" design means that access to the working platform is achieved via integral vertical ladders built into the frames. This provides a clear and secure internal climbing path.
  • Compliance and Safety (3T Method):
    • Manufactured to exacting standards in an ISO 9001 accredited facility.
    • Fully compliant with the latest European and British standards for mobile access towers, specifically BS EN 1004-1:2020.
    • Designed for assembly using the 3T (Through The Trapdoor) method. This safe assembly technique ensures the operator erects guardrails from the platform below, meaning they are never exposed to an unguarded platform during construction or dismantling.
    • Comes with adjustable locking castors for secure positioning and easy movement, and robust, adjustable outriggers/stabilizers for enhanced stability, especially at greater heights.
    • Maximum safe working load of an individual platform is typically 200 kg (evenly distributed). The overall safe working load of the tower (including its self-weight) can be up to 750 kg.
  • Non-Jamming Head Fittings:
    • Alto's unique conical head fittings on the frames are a significant design advantage. They prevent frames from jamming during dismantling, eliminating the need for forceful separation (and potential damage). They also automatically lock frames together during assembly, providing a secure connection without fiddly clips.
  • Versatile Modular System:
    • Available in various widths (e.g., single 0.85m or double 1.45m) and lengths (e.g., 1.8m, 2.5m, 3.2m), allowing for a wide range of platform sizes to suit different access requirements.
    • Components are interchangeable, offering flexibility to build towers of different heights and configurations. Working heights can typically reach up to 12 meters (freestanding) or even higher when securely tied into a structure.
  • Ease of Assembly and Portability:
    • Designed for quick, straightforward assembly and dismantling without specialized tools.
    • Relatively lightweight for a robust industrial tower due to its aluminium construction, making it manageable for transport and on-site movement..

Applications

The Alto Medium Duty Ladderspan Tower is a highly versatile and essential piece of equipment for a vast array of work at height:

  • Construction Sites: General access for bricklaying, rendering, roofing, guttering, fascia work, and internal fit-out.
  • Maintenance & Repair: Access for general building maintenance, painting, decorating, electrical work, plumbing, and HVAC installations.
  • Commercial & Industrial Environments: Use in warehouses, factories, schools, hospitals, and offices for high-level cleaning, lighting maintenance, or machinery access.
  • Event Management: Erecting temporary access platforms for stages, lighting rigs, or other structures.
  • Retail & Leisure: Access for shop fitting, display maintenance, or facility management.
  • Glazing & Window Cleaning: Providing safe access for installing or cleaning windows at height.
