3 hands, longer arms, better design all could help. Oh and floor employees who can follow directions.

Frankly directions that made sense and did not skip steps would also help.

Most standees I encounter use short bolts with wing nuts. I am not certain how a drill or other power tool would really work with these.
The Sawzall would make disassembly much quicker, and make the standee easier to fit in the cardboard recycling bin...
