The 0.72m narrow scaffold tower that goes where a standard tower cannot — through doorways, along corridors and between fixed plant. Platform heights to 7.9m, on site next working day.
Single width tower hire in London solves one problem better than anything else in the fleet: getting a working platform into a space that will not take a standard tower. At 0.72m across, the frame clears a domestic doorway, runs down a corridor and drops into the gap between fixed plant.
Most jobs that go wrong on site do so at the door, not at height. A 1.35m double width tower has to be dismantled and rebuilt every time it changes room; a single width goes through built, on its castors, moved by one person. Over a week of second-fix work in an occupied building that difference is measured in days, not minutes. The frame is aluminium, manufactured to EN 1004-1, and every hire ships with guardrails, toe-boards, stabilisers and lockable castors.
Platform heights run from 1.0m to 7.9m in fifteen steps, so you hire the height the job actually needs rather than the tallest tower on the yard. Working height is roughly two metres above the platform. Anything above 7.9m moves you to a double width tower, which reaches 12.1m.
Painters, decorators, electricians, shopfitters and maintenance teams across London and the South East make up most of these hires. Under the Work at Height Regulations 2005 the person assembling the tower needs to be competent, which in practice means a valid PASMA Towers for Users card — we run that course from our Croydon centre.
Also known as a narrow scaffold tower, narrow width tower or half-width tower.
At 0.72m the built tower passes through a standard door on its castors — no dismantling between rooms.
Light enough for one person to reposition a built tower across a finished floor.

Towers are hired by platform height — your working height is roughly 2.0m above the platform. Pick the height you need to stand on, not the height you need to reach.
The narrowest aluminium tower we hire and the one most trades ask for by name. The frame clears a standard doorway, so a built tower moves between rooms without being taken apart.

The frame is 0.72m wide. That is narrow enough to pass through a standard doorway and along most corridors with the tower still built, which is the main reason trades choose it over a double width.
Yes. It is lightweight aluminium with the minimum number of components, built using the 3T (Through the Trap) or Advanced Guardrail method. Repositioning a built tower across a level floor is a one-person job.
A 7.9m platform, which puts your working height at roughly 9.9m. Above that you need a double width tower, which reaches a 12.1m platform.
To assemble, alter, dismantle or inspect a mobile access tower the Work at Height Regulations 2005 require the person doing it to be competent — in practice a valid PASMA Towers for Users certificate. Most main contractors ask to see the card before you build.
