Are scaffold towers safe?

In short, scaffold towers are safe, but they have maximum load weights like ladders. So, make sure you know that load to ensure the tower doesn’t take more people, equipment, or material to exceed the capacity of the ladder designed to support it. While equipment and gadgets can be used on the scaffold tower, materials and equipment should not be stored there for long periods. Loading the tower for such can potentially weaken the platform. Investing in a high-quality scaffold tower is a safer option than buying a cheap one. So, if you are entrusting your life to it, never settle for a budget product. Although scaffold towers are sturdier and more stable than ladders alone, this doesn’t mean they can tolerate excessive deliberate movements. So, try to limit their exposure to sudden impacts, such as jumping up and down or dropping heavy objects onto them.
