Portable Restrooms Designed for High-Rise Construction

The bathroom requirements for high-rise construction sites are a bit different than regular projects and require highly portable restroom solutions that can fit into tight spaces or reach top floors. To keep employees satisfied, meet necessary OSHA requirements, and keep projects moving efficiently, site managers look to add high-rise portable restrooms to prevent continual traffic from top floors to the ground. Adding products like the Sentry Series from Lang Specialty Trailers confers the following benefits for high-rise construction projects:
 

• More Efficient Worksites: Offering temporary bathrooms on upper-floor construction projects reduces time spent walking to and from ground-level facilities and wait times. This keeps projects moving along efficiently and on time with expected deadlines. 
• Greater Employee Satisfaction & Retention: Explored in depth in our “Guide to Employee Retention & Satisfaction” article, providing upscale bathroom and hydration solutions to construction employees provides long-term benefits in the form of greater employee satisfaction, hiring success, and long-term retention.
• Adherence to Regulations: OSHA and other regulatory bodies will visit job sites and investigate for proper placement and access to bathrooms, both at the ground floor and upper levels of construction projects. Lang Specialty Trailers Sentry Series and other portable restroom trailers eliminate the worry associated with regulations and any possibility of fines or work shutdowns. 

 

Easy Portable Restroom Movement: Forklifts, Cranes, & Freight Elevators

To meet the constraints, tight spaces, and elevated work sites for high-rise or vertical buildings, the Sentry Series is adapted to easily maneuver from space to space. For ground-floor applications or instances where the Sentry Series reaches the intended floor, it can be easily moved with a forklift to the desired location. It also comes standard with four crane hoist points, making it simple to lift the Sentry Series to the top floors of a construction project or onto rooftops. 

With a compact industrial footprint of 98" x 78" and an estimated weight of 3,500 lbs, depending on features, the unit may be compatible with many freight elevators, construction hoists, and material lifts. Contractors should confirm elevator door opening, interior cab dimensions, and load capacity before transport to upper levels.

• Office tower construction
