Orchard Hire & Sales is a distributor and hire centre for aluminium frame towers from British manufacturer Eurotowers®.
The Eurotowers® 232 Narrow Rung Tower is a light-weight but robust aluminium access tower that complies with European standard BS.EN. 1004 and is manufactured To a TUV certified ISO 9001:2008 quality control system.
The tower platforms are 0.7m wide, and either 2.0m, 2.5m, or 3.0m long. The platforms are accessed by climbing inside the tower up the frames and passing through trapdoors in the deck at each level. Spare parts and a repair service are available, giving you confidence in the after sales support.
For some tasks, light-weight aluminium frame towers represent a safer option than ladders and a convenient alternative to scaffolding, but they may not be as practical or safe as professionally erected scaffold in every circumstance.
Access-equipment industry-standard training courses are accredited by PASMA.
Information is included in the attached guides that should be understood before attempting to assemble a scaffold tower.
A diagram in each leaflet shows the steps to follow when erecting a tower in the manufacturer's approved manner.
