Summit Swing Stage

In construction, reaching high work areas is always difficult. Swing stage scaffolding is seen as a great way to solve this problem. But even though it offers efficiency and flexibility, it also comes with many challenges. Dealing with these challenges safely and carefully is crucial. Problems like not having enough workers, bad weather, or late deliveries of materials can cause big issues, messing up carefully planned work and slowing things down on different job sites.

“We are a premier manufacturer of swing stage and suspended scaffolding platforms, offering tailored solutions to suit individual site requirements. Our dedicated crew is available to install, relocate, and dismantle equipment as needed, ensuring seamless operations for clients,” says Sliver Delorey, managing partner at Summit Swing Stage.

The swing stage, available in various versions for different setups, facilitates high-angle access, enabling workers to operate on all sides of structures for tasks ranging from light work to manual labor. Scaffold stairs and towers, designed for enhanced stability and weight-bearing capacity, accompany the swing stage. In comparison to traditional scaffolding, which may take a scaffolder a week or more to set up, Summit Swing Stage’s equipment allows for a wider area of access and quicker completion, typically within four hours.

For clients requiring temporary solutions, it provides equipment on a rental basis. Typically, customers reach out to the company to request a site survey or submit drawings to determine pricing. The rental options include a seven-day, 14-day, and 28-day duration, with any period exceeding 28 days prorated on a daily basis. This approach accommodates unforeseen circumstances, such as weather delays, providing flexibility to clients beyond the initial month. Following each rental period, the equipment undergoes a thorough inspection to identify any damages. If damages are detected, the company promptly addresses them by repairing or discarding the equipment. The focus is on maintaining a robust and structurally sound fleet of equipment and motors.

Summit Swing Stage also facilitates equipment sales, guiding clients through the sizing process to ensure purchased stages align with their requirements. The pricing is then determined based on the customized specifications. The company extends a complimentary service for the initial year, involving certification of the hoist and stage. Subsequently, annual inspections are offered as a pay-as-you-go service beyond the first year.

The organization places significant emphasis on safety and has attained its Certificate of Recognition (COR) to comply with provincial standards set by Alberta Occupational Health and Safety. It is also certified through the Scaffold & Access Industry Association (SAIA) as an accredited training institution for the Suspended Scaffold Hazard Awareness and Operator Safety Training (SSHA and OST) course. This one-day course certifies individuals for swing stage use for three years and covers hands-on exercises, legal insights, load capacities, and a rigorous examination.

Summit Swing Stage’s crew comprises a mix of experienced individuals with over 20 years in the field and younger team members with three to four years of experience. It deliberately maintains a small size to prioritize quality in equipment and rigging. In recent years, it has garnered compliments from clients who have specifically chosen it over other swing stage companies due to its reputation for cleanliness, professionalism, and commitment to excellence in work.

One notable instance exemplifying Summit Swing Stage’s capabilities occurred during a project with Priority Mechanical. They faced a challenging situation for which the company’s team orchestrated a solution. This involved the utilization of a gooseneck and a Bosun chair, creating a compact rig to lower them down a mechanical shaft for the completion of their tasks. The outcome of this collaboration was highly praised by Priority Mechanical, who expressed their admiration for the efficiency and effectiveness of the devised system.

A glowing testimonial by another client, Dustin Peters, Supervisor of Operations of Triovest Realty Advisors reads, “Summit Swing Stage is a highly reputable swing stage provider known for their commitment to delivering high-quality workmanship and maintaining the utmost safety standards. Their experience and dedication to excellence ensure that projects are completed with a high degree of precision and efficiency, earning them trust and recognition within the industry.”

Summit Swing Stage distinguishes itself by catering to clients’ needs and strongly emphasizes personalized customer service rather than adopting a corporate behemoth approach. The focus is on fostering positive feedback from clients to uphold a strong reputation, aiming for growth while maintaining a commitment to a favorable standing in the industry.

The company has expanded its operations into the United States, giving rise to Summit Specialized, headquartered in Las Vegas. Summit Specialized has diversified into digital video board display installations, spearheading impressive projects across various locations. It has been instrumental in constructing scoreboards for the Golden State Warriors and implementing video displays in the vicinity and digital display infrastructure at Allegiant Stadium, the home of the Las Vegas Raiders. The company’s portfolio extends to F1 video display projects in Las Vegas and collaborations with renowned sports teams like the New York Mets, the Green Bay Packers, and Brigham Young University near Salt Lake City. As Summit Swing Stage continues to grow, its unwavering commitment to quality, safety, and client satisfaction positions it as a trusted partner in the swing stage landscape.
