Roof Collapse May Have Been Preventable With Better Shingle Placement

A recent roof collapse in Colorado has been blamed on the way heavy shingles were placed on the roof by a subcontractor. You can view the story here. Prevent this scenario at your worksite. Don’t use a boom truck or roofing conveyor or subcontract to someone who does. Instead, retain control of shingle bundle placement with a safe, simple, affordable Safety Hoist material hoist. Place shingles where they actually need to go—whether spread out on the roof line, along high-pitched roofs, or in hard-to-reach places. Each of our OSHA-compliant ladder hoists is portable yet durable, and each roofing ladder we make is easy for one person to operate, without the need for special training or special tools. Our unique unloading ramp allows you to unload shingles away from the edge of the roof for increased efficiency and safety. Put safety first.
