AERIAL WORK PLATFORM
Choosing a Safe and Cost-Effective Aerial Work Platform
An aerial work platform can provide quick and easy access to work zones, potentially dozens of meters above the ground. With the right tools, your staff can reach tricky areas and carry out important work. Many trades rely on this technology as a crucial piece of capital equipment for day to day operations. Whether you've had experience hiring this type of hardware in the past or you're looking to buy man lifts for the first time, a proven supplier can make your job much simpler. At AWD, we're here to provide service characterised by quality and integrity for every client.
With decades of experience and the capabilities to support operators from coast to coast, AWD is a valuable resource for your business to consider. What should you know when you want to buy a mast lift or similar equipment?
COMMON MISTAKES
People Make With a Vertical Lift
It can be helpful to start the buying process by eliminating options that don't work for your business. Proper planning also contributes to the confidence that the equipment you select will fully satisfy your needs now and into the future. As part of such planning, prepare to avoid typical errors such as:
-
Failing to take appropriate weight capacities into account when purchasing a hoist. Don't forget that you need to factor in the weight of a worker, and not merely the equipment they'll use.
-
Looking at lifts that won't work with your specific application or won't provide the most convenient approach to working at height.
-
Forgetting to factor in the costs of upkeep and maintenance when projecting the price of an acquisition.
SOLUTIONS FOR
MAN LIFTS
At AWD, we offer an incredibly versatile array of vertical aerial working platform options. Understanding that every business faces different requirements, we've chosen to distribute solutions from leading manufacturers to suit both light and heavy-duty requirements. Some of these options include:
-
The Genie AWP-40S, with a telescoping platform that can extend up to an impressive 14+ metres. For demanding jobs that require access to some of the highest locations reachable by this type of hardware, this model is an excellent choice.
-
The JLG 10MSP, whose working height of about 5 metres and 160 kg weight capacity, makes it ideal for warehouse applications and other light indoor duty.
-
The Genie GR-20, another vertical mast lift that has a maximum working height of about 8 meters and retains the capability for driving and repositioning even with the platform deployed. This capability makes it well-suited to moving from different locations at height.
