Scaffold and Ladders Elimated with Power Scaffold

PowerScaffold revolutionizes the scaffold - staging industry

PowerScaffold in Action
When you use PowerScaffold on your jobsite, you virtually eliminate the need for steel scaffolding and walk boards, stepladders, extension ladders, standoffs for your ladders, ladder jacks, etc.

Along with very little need for that equipment is the substantial savings in labor that it takes your crew or you to set up, tear down, and move those items so you can be within reach of your work.

Reason out for yourself – how much more work would your crew accomplish if they did all their work as if they were standing on the ground, working on the first five or six feet of the building and everything was always within reach. They never even have to get out a step ladder.

PowerScaffold does exactly that. It puts your crew right at the level of the work with a bench, materials, A/C power, and tools right there with them. With PowerScaffold there is almost no need for racks of ladders and staging or the unproductive time used by your crew to handle them.

Another advantage to PowerScaffold is the highly reduced time and effort needed to move from one jobsite to another. As the holder of a Class A Builder Contractor License in the state of Virginia the designer of this system knows as well as you the problem that arises when one job is stalled because of some problem with material, bureaucrats, codes, or any of the other dozens of hold-ups that can occur to stall your job, and all of your scaffolding is set up on that site. It is very expensive to move the staging only to have to move it back, or to have to rent more while what you already have is being non-productive. [Or even worse, pay rent on staging that is sitting and doing nothing on one job while your crew is on another.]

PowerScaffold sets up in about 15 minutes from the time you pull on to the jobsite using only one man and "tears down" in about the same amount of time, again with only one man, ready to move to the other side of the building or to another site altogether. You can literally have men working on the actual job in less time than it takes several men to unload a bunch of standard steel scaffolding from a truck or trailer.

How much time can PowerScaffold save you? Estimates range from 30% to 50% of the time spent by workers on the exterior of a building project is spent moving, repositioning, climbing on or off of, or standing on top of staging and waiting for something from the ground to be cut, located, or re-cut and passed up to the waiting worker. More time than you might like to admit is lost when a man takes a break after two or three trips up and down a ladder with materials or to re-measure something that didn’t fit. As you know, when the men get tired, the work slows down.

PowerScaffold virtually eliminates that wasted time, (which we all know means wasted money) by allowing your workers to have AC power, air for pneumatic tools, a workbench, and any materials they may need right with them on top of the PowerScaffold unit. There is no need for passing things up and down, and, in most cases, no need for a ground man since all cutting can be done "in the air." Please notice that PowerScaffold reaches in over bushes, decks, holes, etc. that can make the use of standard steel erectable scaffold difficult or impossible to use. You can reach in about 18 feet to reach a wall where work needs to be done.

Not to be overlooked is the SAFETY FACTOR that is automatic with PowerScaffold. Your crew automatically has rails to guard them from falling on three sides and toe boards, if desired, on the side facing the work. PowerScaffold also utilizes a simple, yet effective leveling system that makes it virtually impossible for anyone operating the machine to get it into an out-of-level condition once it is in use.

Add to the above the convenience of up to 70 feet of wall coverage side to side and up to 30 feet high working height and a load capacity of half a ton, and it is clear that a PowerScaffold unit might be the best investment you could make.
