Can you plank your scaffolding only once, at ground level? J. L. Simmons does! Morgen is the only masonry scaffolding that you plank only once at ground level. No more jockeying awkward planks in mid-air!

And because Morgen elevates the masons without interruption to the top of the wall, you don't need a second set of scaffolding for them to work on while planks and materials are being raised to a higher level. Generally, a job requires only half as much scaffolding and planks with the Morgen system.

And Morgen lets you stock the scaffolding with enough brick for two stories before the men go on the job. In the photo above, J. L. Simmons Co., Decatur, III., has loaded the scaffolding with pallets of brick and still has room to wheel mortar. Morgen Scaffolding will hold all the weight that two-inch planks will support.

If you're not making the profit you should, it's time to investigate the money-making potentials of Morgen Scaffolding.
