Get Ready for Winter

Are you ready for the dark nights and the usual freeze this winter?

The clocks went back this weekend and that’s when Toolstop traditionally see sales of winter season products start to increase.

Toolstop have put together a checklist of some products you may need over the wintertime.

  • Site lighting – lots of different types from minipods to task lamps to 2″ and 5″ fluorescent contractors lights ara available, it depends on the area you’re trying to light but the mornings and the evenings are drawing in and seeing what you’re working on is dependent on decent lighting
  • Heaters – There are electric heaters, propane space heaters and diesel paraffin heaters depending on what you need to heat and the size of the space.  A basic requirement is the need to be warm on site, you’ll definitely be more productive if you are
  • Generators – Needed to power your tools on the worksite but also good to heat up the water in the kettle for your cap of tea to heat you up. You might also use one to power your heater or site lighting
  • Water Pumps – Construction sites will flood in the winter, keep them clear with a decent water pump
  • Winter Workwear – gloves, trousers, fleeces, jackets, waterproofs, hats and thermals are all essential if you’re working outside

Make sure you don’t get caught out by the elements by getting yourself prepared right now for Winter.
