Roof Ladders And Scaffold Towers Are The Best Tools In Working At Height
Most hired roof ladders are lightweight and designed specifically to access your roof. They have wheels on one side, load-bearing bars to keep roof damage to a minimum and a large hook at one end that clasps the roof ridge. To position your hired roof ladder safely, standing from the safety of a scaffold tower, roll the roof ladder out over the roof with the wheel-side down. When the hook is the far side of your roof's ridge, gently spin it over so the hook-side is facing down the other side of your roof. To be absolutely certain that the ladder is in position make sure you can't see the hook.


Most roof ladders are so light that you can put them into position using just one hand, but hiring a scaffold tower will provide you with a safe, stable platform from which to position that ladder. While hired roof ladders have load-bearing bars in place so you don't damage your roof and to provide a little extra grip, and the rungs always have a high-grip design to provide the maximum in safety. However, having a scaffold tower under the eaves is the best way to ensure your safety at height.
