    Elevation



    Yes that time of year has arrived when our guys are working again from scaffolds.

    What I am keen to learn about is the types of lift mechanisms members are using to work from heights.

    The heights we mostly work up to are the first level of a house, so not very high, but unsafe to use ladders.

    Also , access is not always easy to use the lifts from the hire companies.

    Any ideas welcomed.

    No I havent Brian, I have a mate who owns a big glazing company, maybe I try and find out from him.
