I'd recommend putting it on a sack truck.

Post by: Dean Taberner on August 05, 2013, 09:56:14 pm: I'd think that the silo from the ground was approx 10ft.

I like it !!

Pole is out. I got to get my big nose to the glass to get hands on the frames !
Full on UPVC clean plus the windows are (spotted) stained from the chemicals!

Considering if 13 m cherry picker was sufficient !? ;)
Title: Re: How high?
Post by: richard jagger on August 06, 2013, 09:06:47 am: 12 metres based on the red door.
Title: Re: How high?
Post by: Alex Gardiner on August 06, 2013, 09:11:14 am: It should be exactly 11m from the ground to the top of highest window.

A 39/40ft pole should reach it.
