Superior’s electric, air or manually powered swing stages provide a safe and cost effective method for quick access to buildings, tanks, stacks and other structures not normally accessible from the ground.
We provide expert design and installation of suspended work platforms in addition to sales, rentals and service.
When to use suspended scaffolds:
A 72′ modular stage can be transported in a pick up truck!
Modular staging allows for greater versatility. Various configurations can be created using the modular platform sections and decks. Superior has stages that range from 6′ to 60′ (and longer) depending upon the configuration. The staging can be built to almost any desired length with a variety of mounting options including walk-thru and end stirrups.
Usage: When traditional scaffolding is not practical. The flexibility of the system allows for access to locations not normally reachable. Designed for specialized tasks such as maintenance, repair, installation, high-rise, silos, industrial applications, stadiums, and much more.
(drawing for illustration purposes only)
Platforms can be configured in any shape and size to provide safe access to work areas.
Angled sections are available to follow the contour of the structure. Platforms can be configured in single-point, two-point and multi-point configurations.
Single-point
1m and 2m work cages.
Two-point
Two-point is conventional swing staging and can be up to 62’ long.
Multi-point
Allows for Longer platforms
Angled platforms to 90 degrees
Heavier loads.
Porch
Allows for work between and under balconies.
Parapet Clamp
Parapet Clamps and roof hooks are the simplest method of rigging on structural parapets.
Tie Back Anchor
Tie back/Safety line anchors for both permanent and temporary installations.
Down Under Beam
The down-under beam will reach 3’ under non structural overhangs like cornices and mansard roofs.
Standard Outrigger
The rolling roof rig (or standard outrigger) allows for the rapid movement of the outriggers to the next drop.
Tilt Up Beam
Tilt up beam stand requires less equipment to be carried to the roof allowing quick set up and lower labor costs for short term jobs like inspections.
Extended Reach Beam
Delivers an increased overhang of up to 11’, with the standard having only a 2’-3’ overhang.
Davit
Permanent installations such as davits are a great rigging solution for those repetitive jobs.
Tripod Stand & Pigeon Hole Stand
Spreads the load over the area allowing to rig through a small opening at the top of vessels, elevator shafts, bridges, structural catwalks, etc.
Fixed and Adjustable Corner Sections
Components can be added in many different configurations depending upon job requirements. It’s the most flexible system available! Here are a few popular items.
Fixed or adjustable corner sections can be used to follow the contours of the structure precisely and allow access within 1′ to 2′ of the working surface. You can choose from a variety of fixed and adjustable corner sections.
Fixed Corners
Load capacity and configuration tables Regardless of the type used or angle of the corner section, the load capacity of any L-shaped platform is affected. Click link below for manufacturers configurations and load capacities.
Adjustable Corner Section
The adjustable corner section can form angles from 20 to 90 degrees.
Advantages of Adjustable Corner Sections:
Stirrups attach the hoist to the platform. Walk-thru stirrups place the hoist outboard of the platform allowing workers to walk past the stirrups (attachment point) unencumbered. It also allows the workers to reach beyond the rigging point.
Walk Thru Stirrup
The tall gooseneck provide maximum platform stability while allowing workers a clear path.
Low Profile Walk-thru Stirrup
Low profile walkthrough stirrups allows the platform to get closer to reach work above the rigging, ie: ceilings, parapets, etc. Attaches scaffold hoists to the Side Frame of an ALTREX or UP-STAGE platform.
End Stirrup
Attaches scaffold hoists to the end of an ALTREX platform.
Double Wide Stirrup
For use when mounting two platforms side-by-side to create a wider work area, or increase capacity or work under overhangs.
Bisomac – Bee Access
The new BISOMAC210 and BISOMAC210L Traction Hoists are the next-generation traction hoist for the new era of ultra-high-rise buildings. Easy to maintain and highly durable, this full-powered, full-featured traction hoist is remarkably compact and lightweight.
