Hi All,

I have been trying to source an appropriate access equipment, that will span across a desk in order to gain access to the lighting above. Normal desk spans are approximately 7ft and ceiling height varies from 10ft to 20ft.

Thanks for any info received

Cheers

Lee

I might be missing the point, but why not just move the desk?

Hi Lee

Check out www.turner-access.co.uk once your on their site select aluminium towers then select OmegaDeck250 you will find this system will likely meet your requirements.

I have no affiliations with turner access, its just that I was researching for some access platforms and on paper at least I was well impressed with their range of mobile scaffolds.

Regards
Granville

I am assuming that these desks are fixed utility services types that cannot be moved?

You can find many providers of light weight quck assembly scaffold types that would suit your differing heights in the safety trade magazines - do watch out for wheel types that do not mark expensive carpets when stationary or in motion across office floors.

Thanks for the response. Turner access look to be the better choice for me.

Cheers
