Advance guardrail towers put the guardrail in place from below before you climb — the safest way to build a mobile tower. Available in single and double width.
Advanced guardrail tower hire is the safest way to build a mobile access tower. The guardrail is lifted into position from the deck below and locked in place before anyone climbs up, so nobody is ever stood on an unprotected platform during the build.
Many principal contractors now insist on the advance guardrail method rather than the through-the-trap alternative, and it is the first thing a site safety officer will look for. We hire these in single width (0.72m) and double width (1.35m), with platform heights up to 12.1m. Each tower is aluminium, built to EN 1004 and supplied with toe-boards and lockable castors.
The kit only helps if the crew builds it as intended, which is covered on PASMA Towers for Users — the qualification the user needs in any case. If your site has standardised on advance guardrail, the same towers are available to buy. Tell us the width and height you need and we will get a price back to you within 15 minutes during office hours.
