10m AGR Scaffold Tower Hire — Single width, 2.5m Platform

Hire a 10m AGR scaffold tower in London from £239.99 a week, delivered free within 30km of our Cheshunt yard and collected at the end of your hire. 10.14m working height on the long narrow platform, 2.5m x 0.75m.

What a 10m tower is for

10.14m takes you past the domestic range into four-storey elevations and roof-level plant. It is the height where a tower stops being something one person throws up in the morning: the build sequence, the stabiliser span and where the tower is tied matter as much as the tower itself, and it wants two trained people on it.

• Four-storey elevations and mansard levels
• Roof-level plant, condensers and flues
• Warehouse racking top runs and service risers
• Signage and cladding above the domestic range

Mostly hired by construction, builders.

Is 10.14m the right height for you?

You stand on the platform at 8.14m and work comfortably to about 10.1m — that reaches a full three-storey elevation including the roofline. Measure to the highest point you actually need to touch and take off roughly two metres; if the number you are left with is near 10.14, this is your tower. Working lower than that? The 8m version works to 8.14m, which reaches the roofline and bargeboards of a two-storey house. Need to go higher? The 12m version works to 12.14m, which reaches four-storey eaves and roof-level plant on a commercial unit.

If you are between two heights, the height guide works through it, and how to choose a scaffold tower covers the rest of the decision.

Will it fit, and can you get it there?

2.5m x 0.75m is still 750mm wide, so it still passes a standard doorway and down a side return — but the 2.5m platform means far fewer repositions along an elevation or a wall. On a long run this is the difference between one build and four.

You need 2.5m of clear straight run to build it, and the same to move it. In a short room or a tight yard the 1.8m platform is the better tool. The size guide covers measuring the narrowest point, the floor area including stabilisers, and the clear height you need while building.

Plan the carry route. 312.5kg of components. Two people minimum, and worth walking the route from where we can park to where the tower goes before delivery day — through a house or down a long side return this is the part that costs time.

What comes with the hire

Advanced guardrail (AGR) build-up

On a standard tower you climb to the new level and fit its guardrail once you are standing there. On this one the guardrail frame is raised into place from the platform below and locked before anyone steps up, so no operative ever stands on an unprotected level while the tower goes up or comes down.

Hire this one if: you are on a managed or principal-contractor site, AGR or "collective fall protection during assembly" is written into the RAMS or method statement, your client audits build-up method, or the tower goes up and down repeatedly through the job.

The standard tower is enough if: you are a sole trader or small team on domestic work, you build the tower once and leave it up, and nobody is asking you to evidence the assembly method. It is the same aluminium, the same platform, the same working height and the same guardrails once the tower is built — the difference is entirely in how those guardrails get there.

The AGR version is £20 a week more. That is the whole difference in price, and we would rather you hired the cheaper one than paid for a specification nobody asked you for.

Inspected before it leaves the yard

Frames, braces, platforms, guardrails, toeboards and castors are checked on every turnaround. Anything bent, cracked or worn comes out of service rather than going back on the shelf. See our safety and quality standards.

What the weekly price covers

The figure on this page is what you pay. Guardrails, toeboards, stabilisers and lockable castors come with the tower, not on the invoice — and there is no deposit and no card hold.

• Included: delivery and collection within 30km of our Cheshunt yard
• £45: delivery and collection beyond 30km — both legs, once per order
• Optional: installation and dismantling, if nobody on your team is PASMA trained
• VAT: included in the price shown, never added at checkout

The full line-by-line list — what is in the price and what is not — is in the hire terms.

How this tower goes up

Who may build it: under the Work at Height Regulations 2005 a tower must be assembled by someone competent to do it — in practice, PASMA trained on this type of tower. If nobody on your team holds that, add our optional installation service and we will build it on delivery and take it down at collection.

These are the manufacturer's own assembly diagrams for this configuration. The full guide comes with the tower.

Dismantling is the same sequence in reverse. The assembly guide explains the principle behind the order, and the PASMA guide covers the training.

The manufacturer's limits

From the assembly and use manual supplied with this tower — the manufacturer's figures, not our interpretation of them.

• Wind: stop work above 38 km/h (about 24 mph, Beaufort 6), and never try to move the tower in wind.
• Ground: level, flat and firm. On soft ground put base plates or U-profiles under the castors.
• Assembly: two people minimum, and both trained on this type of tower.
• Stabilisers: required at this height — out to full span before anyone climbs.
• Rest platform: one at least every 4m, so this configuration needs 2 on the way up.
• Moving it: drop the height to 6m first, raise the stabilisers no more than 10cm, and nobody stays on the tower.

Certified to EN 1004. The full set of limits — loading, sheeting, inspection intervals and what the tower must never be used for — is on the safety guide.
