With the construction industry booming, upright scaffolds are seen all across the United States. Many construction sites now feature aluminum upright scaffold due to the many advantages provided over traditional steel and wood scaffolding. When the job requires reaching heights, a versatile option is necessary. With aluminum upright scaffolding, you’ll gain plenty of versatility, along with many other benefits.

Upright Scaffold Benefits

Those in the construction industry are catching on to the many benefits provided by aluminum upright scaffolds. Many are switching from a more traditional choice to aluminum due to the benefits provided. While steel and wood scaffolds are likely not going to disappear, they have become less appealing.

Lightweight

One of the main benefits of aluminum is the lightweight design. Compared to wood and steel, aluminum provides a far superior material as it’s much lighter. This means, if you choose an aluminum upright scaffold, you’ll have a scaffold you can easily transport and move around the job site.

If flexibility matters and you need mobile scaffolding, aluminum is the right choice. With the EZ Lift™ Aluminum Upright Scaffold system, you’ll be able to move the scaffolding on the casters from one area of the job site to another.

Durability

Steel and wood are susceptible to moisture. When working outside with scaffolding, it will get wet, sooner or later. Steel rusts and wood rots from moisture, but aluminum doesn’t.

This non-corrosive material remains strong and durable even when it becomes wet. Instead of working with scaffolding that could become compromised by moisture, choose aluminum upright scaffolding for your construction site.

Strength

Even though aluminum scaffolds are very lightweight, they also provide plenty of strength. The EZ Lift™ Aluminum Upright Scaffold can support up to 500 pounds per platform, which means there’s plenty of strength for workers and tools. The double span system allows for multiple workers and even more tools.

Safety

Compared to a ladder, scaffolding offers a safer option for job sites requiring workers to reach heights. When you need to work high up, a ladder may not be the right choice, especially if you need to stand at heights for long periods.

With aluminum upright scaffolds, you gain the ability to work at heights safely without the same fear of falling off a ladder. Since many job site accidents are a result of falling, it’s best to choose the safest option for the job. With upright scaffolds, you can work at heights in a very safe manner.

Setup

The time it takes to set up traditional scaffolds can be costly. Whether you do it yourself or hire someone to set it up, you may be spending more than you’d like. With EZ Lift™ Aluminum Upright Scaffolds, two people can set up fa 25 foot tower in less than 30 minutes.

It’s very easy to set up and the lightweight structure makes it possible for just about anybody to be a part of the setup process. In addition, when it’s time to tear down the scaffold, aluminum upright scaffolds will come down much quicker.

Compatibility with Other Systems

The EZ Lift™ Aluminum Upright Scaffold system provides the unique benefit of working with other scaffold systems. You can use it with the Vault Upright Scaffold and the Werner Upright Scaffold. All three systems intermix easily providing even more flexibility.

When you need the right scaffold for the job, don’t overlook upright aluminum scaffolds. This type of scaffold provides many benefits and might just be the perfect choice for your job site.
