Low-Cost Winter Enclosure on MORGEN Scaffolding Lets You Work the Year Around!
Now you can continue masonry through freezing weather at a reasonable cost. Even in Canada masons are getting up to 50 weeks of work per year.
The answer is Morgen Tower Scaffolding with a winter enclosure accessory that lets you enclose only the work area and the fresh masonry. This simple plastic "greenhouse" elevates with the masons, laborers, materials, and heaters as the wall is being built. The enclosure is assembled and covered at ground level, eliminating the dangers of handling heaters and drapes or panels on elevated scaffolding.
Morgen Scaffold gives you at least 20% more production from your masons and slashes the labor cost of scaffolding erection, moving and dismantling. It soon pays for itself, and then goes on making more profit for you. With the enclosure system, you can schedule work right through the winter and offer steady employment to your men. At a price you can afford!
