MiTower Scaffold Tower Hire

Built for solo trades who need 6m fast

The MiTower is the tower you hire when the job is a day, the site is tight, and there’s no crew coming to help you build. One person, no tools, clip the frames together and climb.

Platform at 4m, working height at 6m. That’s ceiling height in most three-storey hallways, the top of a standard shopfront, and the reach you need for first-fix electrics on a loft conversion. 150kg safe working load covers one operator plus hand tools — this tower is not for two-person jobs or heavy material lifts.

If you need more deck space, a higher platform, or a heavier load rating, you want the Miniscaff Solo (same solo build, heavier load) or the 3T Tower (build up to 10.2m). If you’re working indoors and want a tower you can unfold rather than build, look at the Folding Tower.

Specification

Best for

• Shop-front signage and fascia work up to 6m
• First-fix electrics and plumbing on two/three-storey domestic
• Interior painting, decorating, coving in hallways and stairwells with a flat landing
• Inspection and maintenance tasks on commercial units

Not the right pick if

• You need the platform above 4m — look at the 3T or Twin-Access
• You’re working as a two-person crew — the Twin-Access has two climb faces for exactly this
• The ground is uneven or you’re in a stairwell with a step — you need the Stairwell Tower
• You need more than 150kg on the deck

Hire conditions

Delivered, inspected, ready to build

Every MiTower returns to our Greenford depot between hires for inspection and cleaning. You get a tower that’s been checked, not just quality-controlled at the manufacturer six years ago. Delivery slots are booked by postcode zone.

Frequently asked questions

Can one person really build the MiTower?
Yes — the whole tower is designed around a solo build. Clip-frame sections replace the braced-tubes-and-spanners approach of a traditional tower, so there’s nothing to tighten and nothing to drop.

Will it fit through a standard UK doorway?
Yes. The footprint and frame geometry are designed to pass through an 800mm doorway when disassembled and to roll through when partially built on castors.

What’s the difference between the MiTower and the Miniscaff Solo?
Both are one-person towers at roughly the same height. The Miniscaff Solo has a 250kg safe working load (vs 150kg on MiTower) and a slightly taller 6.2m working height, so it’s the pick when you need more deck load. The MiTower is lighter to handle and faster to clip together.

Do I need PASMA training to use this?
For paid work, yes — PASMA is the recognised UK standard for mobile access towers, and HSE expects operators to be trained. For DIY use at your own property, follow the supplied build manual and don’t exceed the stated load.

What’s included with the hire?
Tower frames, guardrails, toeboards, stabilisers, castors, and the build manual. PPE and edge protection beyond the tower itself are not included.
