To saw or not to saw that is the question….


Hey Guys, 

Definitely don't try this one at home... 

What would Health and Safety make of this photo we found on the good old social media today?!
There are many things wrong with this photo, one could almost mistake it for a circus act. If you were to come across this in a forest clearing we would suggest running for your life – quite literally.

What is a combination ladder?

Image
Hello Guys, Do you want to know more about combination ladders? Simply put a combination ladder is a ladder with several sections that can be assembled in several different ways depending on the job at hand. Often a job or set of jobs will call for the use of a number of different types of ladder, whether it is gardening, home renovations, decorating or routine home maintenance.  Sometimes the use of a free standing stair ladder can be inconvenient or dangerous, for example pruning tall hedges or decorating a deep stairwell. In these situations, a combination ladder is the ideal choice, making the whole procedure simpler and safer for the worker.

Hi Everyone, Let us explain to you why its important to use the right tools when completing a job. Just this week in the news, we hear of yet another shocking incident involving shoddy working practices where makeshift work platforms have been made in order to compensate for the lack of appropriate ladders and scaffold towers. The employee in question was attempting to repair a tear in a lorry curtain which meant he had no option but to work 2 metres from the ground. In the absence of any proper equipment to carry out the job safely, such as a ladder or a scaffold tower a makeshift working platform was constructed by using a wooden pallet attached to the prongs of a forklift truck which was used to lift the employee to carry out the repair.
