Mobile scaffold for 1st floor
Getting to work at first-floor height, for example on window frames or the facade at that height? Then you usually choose a working height of around 6 metres.
Which working height do you need?
The average floor height of a Dutch home is about 2.5 to 3 metres. For work at first-floor height, such as painting window frames or facade maintenance, a working height of around 6 metres is usually just right.
Working height is not the same as platform height: the working height is the platform height plus approximately 2 metres of reach of an average adult. When in doubt between two heights, most customers prefer the higher variant, so you don't have to reach or stand on your toes while working.

Is this the exact height, or does it vary per home?
Floor heights vary slightly per home. 6 metres of working height is a reliable average; if in doubt, feel free to choose a slightly higher working height via the configurator.
Do you assemble the scaffold yourselves, or do I do it myself?
Our scaffolds are designed to be assembled quickly and safely by yourself, without special tools. Just follow the included manual. If in doubt, we can also come and assemble it for you.
Can I also choose a lower working height for the 1st floor to save money?
You can, but we advise not to cut it too fine: too little working height means you will still have to reach or stand on your toes, which is less safe. Better to choose a slightly higher working height than exactly at the limit.
