Fitting Sign 42
Our fitters take their jobs seriously, and make sure they’re safe before anything else.
This is a case where safety is paramount, the higher they go the more secure they need to be. The scaffolding is rigid and secured with outriggers, and then cones are also placed outside of the scaffolding (in case anyone doesn’t see the scaffolding?).

So here are two of the fitters at a very early time in the morning up scaffolding fitting some signs. They are wearing the correct safety gear.
The signs they are fitting are aluminium with vinyl text and grahpics applied to it.

Here is a picture of one our signs that has just been fitted, but we don’t generally take many of these kinds of pictures – it still has the protective covering on it that came from the workshop.
Sure, bubble wrap is nothing new, but we do like to take care of the signs when they leave the factory to get to the customer, even if we are the ones delivering and doing the fitting ourselves.
Just a quick note: this is an aluminium tray with vinyl text for the writing and symbol.

Here is one place you won’t find a lot of people, that high up scaffolding working and fitting signs.
Nevertheless, our fitting team are gifted in that they don’t seem to mind the heights so much as some of us here doing the other jobs. They have correctly put the scaffolding in place rather than using a tall ladder, and are wearing their safety gear.
Although you can’t see it in this picture, there are bracing struts that extend outwards from the corners. They really make sure their scaffolding is secure before going up, and at that height who can blame them?

Ask anyone who knows us and they will tell you our fitting teams are always wearing the correct safety gear. Protecting their noggins is a primary concern of ours, especially when some of our projects are in building sites.
Here you can see that the fitting team is wearing the right gear, the high-vis jackets, the safety helmets, standing on the scaffolding. Another thing to note is that they put the scaffolding in between the windows, you just know someone would open one if they had.

Perhaps a bit of overkill, but here is a cherry picker with the fitting team in action, close to the ground (maybe -too- close to the ground?).
Needless to say the fitters followed the prescribed safety protocols, they are wearing the required safety gear and they are harnessed to the cherry picker.
The profile sign that they are erecting is for a corporate client, ConocoPhillips, and they will last many years.

We work hard for our safety record, and sometimes fitting signs can be a challenge especially in areas where people are still walking and moving around. Times can be demanding so that signs must be fitted before people start work, or in this case here, in a place that is difficult to get to.
The scaffolding is erected carefully, avoiding damage to the area, but with safety in mind. Other pictures from this series show the scaffolding being put up and from other directions but this picture shows it in situ when the job has been finished and the vertical profile sign is in place.
Notice that the area immediately around the scaffolding is marked off with tape and bollards, to ensure passers-by do not hit the scaffolding or injure themselves, or put themselves in any danger.

Fitting, Pic 30
Here is a hair-raising sight, if you don’t like heights. Luckily the fitters who went here apparently don’t mind them so much. This is on the 15th floor of the building.
The fitters were fitting the cut out letters that you can just see behind the safety netting.
