Which machine
Height first, then the ground
Work from the height you need to reach: working height, how high a person on the platform can reach, is normally the platform height plus about two metres. Tell us that and what the ground is like, and we will put the right machine on the job rather than the biggest one.
A scissor lift gives a bigger platform that carries more, but only goes straight up. If the work is above, around or over something, see cherry picker hire. Our guide explains what a scissor lift is, the types and the heights they reach.
- Indoors, on finished floors, electric is normally the requirement: no exhaust, non-marking tyres, and quiet enough for an occupied building
- Outdoors, on rough or soft ground, a diesel or rough terrain machine stays usable
- Tell us about slope, ground bearing and any overhead obstructions
Hire terms
How scissor lift hire works
| Hire terms | |
|---|---|
| Minimum hire period | None. A machine can be hired for a day. |
| Minimum charge | One week at the weekly rate. |
| Contract | None on a short term hire. Extend the hire if the job runs on. |
| Thorough examination | A scissor lift lifts people, so LOLER requires a thorough examination every six months, not twelve. Hire machines come with a current examination. |
| If a machine stops | You get your money back, and we send one of our own engineers out to it, not a subcontractor. Where we judge it necessary we supply a stand-in machine. |
| Delivery | Nationwide from eight depots. Transport is charged separately and the fee depends on where you are. |
| Longer term | Lease purchase, contract hire or operating lease, on used machines as well as new. See leasing and contract hire. |
If a hire runs on and starts to look permanent, we will say so, because past a certain number of months a longer agreement or buying is usually cheaper.
Hiring more than scissor lifts? See access platform hire. We also run RTITB accredited scissor lift training. Already run your own machines? We provide MEWP servicing and thorough examinations.
