Posted By NickW We are required to access an 8m ceiling for the purposes of inspection which will take around 10 mins to complete. Use of a MEWP is not an option (wont get through the doors). Our guys are tower scaffold trained but can anyone suggest any another options? thanks

Posted By Salus Hi Nick, you could try a company called Facelift, 0800 521595, look for a Upright UL40 might be what you require. If you can use the tower,follow manafacturers instructions and I believe you can go up to 3.5 times the smallest base width inside a building,measurement taken from the ends of the outriggers

Posted By David Tilsley-Curtis Nick We have a couple of products which a single man operated and reasonably simple to transport. They are call the Pedalift and a Tallescope, both would give you up to 9 metre in working height. Please email me your details and I shall send you across the data sheets on each. Regards David

Posted By NickW Yes, can totally understand the suggestions for binocs and to avoid work at height AFARP. Unfortunately, in this instance we have no choice and have to physically access it. Thanks for responses
