Reducing Risks

The safe & worry free option for the awning Installer. With ever more regulations and red tape facing small business, combined with greater awareness on health & safety issues, Managers could be forgiven for buckling under the weight of their collective daily responsibilities.

The Facts

As we know under health & safety legislation, it is every employer’s duty to reduce and eliminate risk wherever appropriate. None more so than on the subject of Manual Handling where in 2003 some 25 % of all reported accidents & 35% of ALL days lost due to absence & sickness  in that year were directly attributed to a combination of poor manual handling or accidents pertaining from this process.

Health & Safety

Just look at some of the factors that need considering before you install an
awning: -

Climatic conditions
Just to experience a British summer you will know the full gambit that the
weather can throw at you, rain, wind, snow, hailstones and that can be all
in one day!

How many people will I need?
Depending on the type of awning product chosen, generally 2 people up to
4  metres wide. 3 people up to 5 metres & when the larger models of 6-7
metres are installed may be 4 people – which all adds up to a significant
drain upon your resources both in financial terms & Logistics

What safety equipment is required?
Will we need special equipment?
Is my staff trained in its use?
Will it overcome the difficulty?
How much does it cost?
The list just gets longer & longer.......


Crocodilla would like to help lighten some of that burden!

Why The Portalift?

With our user friendly portable awning Lift installation can be transformed into a safe and cost effective process.

All safety equipment has to be effective & quick to assemble while providing all the elements of safety, stability & being fit for purpose. If not our experience tells us it will not be utilised which is not best use of any companies resource.

We at Crocodilla are very excited about this development, having listened & collaborated with several companies, understanding the main difficulties associated with manual handling and lifting while providing a solution that is practical and quick to operate, we believe it’s a win – win situation for all concerned.

So to be scientific & impartial in our approach, we contacted a company to see if we could attend an installation, where we gave the PortaLift to two installers to see what they thought and obtain feed back on the usefulness and practicality of the product.

Below is a pictorial record of this installation.
