Scaffolding Hoist Options

Lifting Gear Store has a couple of options when it comes to lifting loads up a scaffold tower. We have 2 models from the T E A, L'Europea brand. The HE235 is a best seller, in addition we also sell the HE200 scaffolding hoist. These hoists have slightly different set ups but both can handle loads up to 200kg and use 110volt power with a single phase motor.

Additionally there are accessories to compliment your scaffolding hoist system. We are offering just the hoist bucket for sale online as it is one of the most popular items. However should you need any other scaffold hoist accessory such as a wheelbarrow or wheelbarrow chains or brick baskets then please get in touch, we can supply those too.

Find out the specifics of each of our model choices below and compare the technical details and design benefits. Call the team on 01384 76961 if you need any help or guidance. Orders and payments can also be taken over the phone as well as online through our safe system.

Benefits of a Scaffolding Hoist

A scaffolding hoist has a number of benefits, particularly for builders or construction workers. Providing scaffolding systems are available these hoists can be quickly put to use. Whilst being very efficient at lifting materials to high levels, they also offer some level of injury prevention to the user.

To elaborate, workers should use two hands to climb up scaffolding, however this is not possible if you also need to carry tools and materials, thus making the ascent hazardous. Not to mention the physical strain implied by carrying heavy materials in an awkward manner. Injuries often result in time off work, typically not cost effective for the employer or employee. Time = money! Building work slows done, deadlines may not be met and sick pay needs to be considered.

Using A Scaffold Hoist

The design of these hoists means they can be clamped securely to most scaffold poles at the desired elevation. Subsequently they can be swung out and positioned over the edge of the building, some models have a choice of reach projection positions which can be adjusted to suit the load size. Thanks to being powered, materials and tools can be raised to the lever of the build that they are needed at the press of a button. The pendant controller can both raise and lower loads with ease and precision with no physical effort needed.

Once the hoist has raised the load the hoist can be swung back in so that off loading onto the scaffold platform is easier.
