To reach working areas at height, scaffolding must be used. The staircase models have the advantage of being able to be placed on a non-flat surface.

The different types of stair scaffolding
Whether folding or rolling , staircase scaffolding has its own characteristics. Overview of the folding model:

Its assembly is simplified ;

- It allows to reach a height of three meters;

- It is easy to store due to its small size when folded;

- Its compact dimensions make it particularly handy. It can pass in tight spaces without being dismantled;

- It only supports small loads: no more than 150 kg.

What about escalator scaffolding?
- It is capable of reaching a working height of five meters ;
- The height of its tray is flexible;
- It has a guardrail to optimize security;
- Access is facilitated by ladders;
- It is capable of supporting heavy loads of up to 600 kg .

The basics of scaffolding
It is best to use the staircase scaffolding for short-term work . In any case, remember that:

- Its working height must be comfortable to gain efficiency ;

- Prefer scaffolding with a railing;

- Avoid at all costs building your own staircase scaffolding with planks and a stepladder, as your safety is not guaranteed.
