Points to plan for in Vale of Leven
Controls
Door contacts stop the unit running when the door is closed.
Shared buildings
In multi-let buildings, roof space, risers and plant areas are often controlled by a managing agent. We work to their permits and method-statement requirements.
Exposure
Windy entrances need more powerful units or a lobby.
Roof and height work
Flat roofs, high walls and atriums need the right access equipment and edge protection. We plan towers, MEWPs or scaffold before the job, not on the day.
