Which of the High-Quality Scaffolding System Now Available for Sale Should You Choose?

Whether you may be planning to paint the exterior of your home or to add a loft extension, it would be a slow and tedious process if the only means by which you were able to access the worksite was by repeatedly repositioning a ladder. In practice, of course, the more effective option would simply be to purchase and erect some of the scaffolding commonly offered for sale – and designed specifically to provide all-round access when attempting this sort of task.

You could, in fact, hire the necessary equipment from a firm of scaffolders and pay for its use by the day until your job is complete. Alternatively, if you are allocating the task to a professional building company, it will be provided for you and the cost included in the builder’s invoice. For those whose bread and butter is construction, however, ownership is clearly the practical answer and all that remains is to decide which of the types of scaffolding for sale will best meet their needs.

For a smaller company that may be unable to afford the cost of employing a team of experienced professional scaffolders, the Selflock design could provide the perfect solution. Made from tubular steel or aluminium, this type of product requires no nuts and bolts to hold its various components in place, as all of its parts are designed to interlock with one another. This, in turn, means that it can be assembled quickly and simply, even by unskilled workers. This makes it one of the most cost-effective options when comparing the various types of scaffolding for sale. Good for both indoor and outdoor use, it is widely used by painters and plasterers.

A more versatile option and one that is the most widely used in the countries of southern Africa is sold under the rather descriptive brand name of Kwikstage. Like the Selflock product, it is also quick and simple to erect and dismantle. However, its added strength means that it can be used to tackle the more demanding tasks of a construction company. Its practical design allows the Kwikstage components to be bundled, transported, and stored with comparative ease while a wide range of available heights, lengths, and widths explains why Kwikstage scaffolding is among the most versatile such systems now for sale in Southern Africa.

Both of these high-quality products may be purchased from Disc-O-Scaff. Based in Elandsfontein, we use only SABS-approved materials for the manufacture of the scaffolding components we offer for sale and which we supply to many of the region’s leading construction companies.
