Scissor lifts
A scissor lift raises a wide, guarded platform straight up, so people can work at height with their tools and materials beside them. Compared with ladders or scaffolding it is ready in minutes and moves easily from one job to the next.
We build four types: towable mobile lifts for the greatest heights and heaviest loads, self-propelled lifts that drive from the platform, crawler lifts for rough or soft ground, and tricycle-mounted lifts that travel between sites on their own wheels.

How to choose a scissor lift
Working height
Start from the highest point you need to work at. Working height is the stated reach, not the deck height. Our range covers 6 to 26 m.
Load and deck size
Count everyone on the platform plus tools and materials. Ratings run from 300 kg on compact models to 3000 kg on heavy-duty mobile lifts.
Ground and movement
On smooth indoor floors a self-propelled lift saves time; on rough or soft ground choose crawler tracks; to move between distant jobs, a towable or tricycle model.
