Alum-A-Pole Pump Jack Scaffolding for Home Improvement Projects

February 25, 2017

Alum-A-Pole or Pump Jack Scaffolding is a great choice for outdoor home improvement projects. Need to paint the house, but don’t want to climb and move a ladder constantly just so you can get from area to area? With Alum-A-Pole you can leave the ladder in the garage and get your house painted, or even sided with real efficiency.

Alum-A-Pole Pump Jack Scaffold

Alum-A-Pole is a fairly simple concept, two poles, generally 24’ in length, each have a jack attached to them. The jack can also be attached to a bench platform, allowing the user to put a 14” wide plank on the backside of the staging. A 20” plank is used to stand on, and a user gets on either end of the plank, with the jack and literally pumps it up into the air with their feet.

These systems can go as high as 48’ and as long as you need from 16’ on up to 48’ in length, making it perfect for staging the sides of a house. Not to mention, having a 16’ or longer run to work off of, which sure beats climbing up and down a ladder with a paint bucket all day. A complete setup, which generally includes poles, jacks, bench brackets (for your back plank), two planks (one 14” wide and one 20” wide), safety netting, end rails, as well as braces that screw into the side of the building to keep the poles upright.

Seacoast Scaffold offers package rentals based on different parameters to suit the needs of each customer. Packages run from a 16’x24’ setup, all the way to 48’x48. Renting by the package will save the customer money as opposed to creating their own setup and renting it piece by piece. Alum-A-Pole is an outstanding option for homeowners and painters alike, allowing the safety and efficiency to get a job done quickly.
