Solar Platform 6’6” (w/winged gates)
Safer Alternative to Scaffolding
Our Solar Access System has been designed to gain safe access up to roof level, releasing installers from dependence on scaffolding, and offering them a safe stable working platform combined with certified edge protection.
Configurable
The Solar Access System comprises of 2 telescopic Decs and a Catwalk, which will provide an 26" or 33' (8m or 10m) long working platform, or further Decs and Catwalks can be added to provide a limitless modular system. The system also includes a rolling window bar, strap operated legs and a purpose designed hoist for lifting solar panels to roof level.
Portable
The Solar Access System can be transported in either a transit type van or on a roof rack, and can be installed and ready to start work in under 30 minutes, leaving you able to arrive, install and leave a site, on a strict schedule.
Features:
Cost effective alternative to scaffolding
- No tools assembly feature
- Quick and simple to construct
- Height adjustable in seconds
- Can easily span obstacles (eg. conservatories)
- Lightweight and compact: easy storage and transportation
- Purpose designed hoist for lifting solar panels to roof level
- Independently adjustable legs to cope with uneven or sloping ground
- Flexibility to quickly change work locations
Additional Info
The modular system overcomes an array of installation problems with a range of accessories to give complete control over your installation. Whilst the standard leg (11' - 18' [3.3 m - 5.5 m]) is sold as part of the system, alternative leg lengths are also available (see Techincal Specification) enabling you to cover the majority of properties. The Catwalk is a standard 4.6m but a 6.6m length is also available and both are supplied with an intergral handrail system and toe boards. Where restrictive access precludes the use of the standard 6.6' (2m) Dec, a single leg support can be used. Designed to provide access where boundaries or projecting structures restrict normal platform use. The Rolling Window Bar provides a continuous platform support for load distribution. Particulary useful on claddings, tile hangings, rendered substrates and where the platform is to be positioned over window openings.
A Solar Panel Bridging Ladder that compliments the Solar Access System is also available.
Prior to use a full onsite risk assessment must be carried out, and the Solar Access System must be tied into the structure.
