Manual Cradle

Scafor Manual Cradle

A Scafor Manual Cradle is a device used to suspend a person using a manually powered hoist. Smaller and lighter than electric alternatives, they require no electrical power source, making them the safer choice for work over water. They are particularly well suited to river wall repairs such as those pictured here on the River Thames at Vauxhall, where installing electric motors above water presents unnecessary risk.

  • Painters’ cradles
  • Bosun’s chairs and one man cradles
  • Platforms with fixed or articulated stirrups
  • Use over water (Rivers, Canals, Lakes, or the sea)
  • Low height of a building’s elevation (under 10 metres)
  • Ideal length between 1 and 6 metres
  • SWL of a Manual Cradle is 2 men or 250kg
Bosun

Bosun’s Chair

A Bosun’s Chair is a device used to suspend a person from a rope to perform work aloft. It is distinguished from a climbing harness by the inclusion of a more or less rigid seat, providing more comfort than even the best-padded straps for long-term use. However, the bosun’s chair does not allow the freedom of movement necessary for climbing, and the occupant is generally hoisted or lowered into place using the rope alone. Control of the hoist is by a pendant control box, that the operative uses to move the chair from the comfort of his seat.

  • Multi-purpose
  • SWL One man or 90kg

Excellence skills & Quality work

Our Access Cradles can be assembled to give access to buildings in a couple of hours/days, which is extremely quick in comparison to the time and cost involved in assembling a scaffold, and makes the cradle a very efficient means of access to multi-storey flats/buildings.
