Personnel lifts

What is a personnel lift?

A personnel lift – sometimes also called a mobile elevating work platform – is a mobile and adjustable lifting solution characterised by a large work platform, a safety cage, and a powerless lifting mechanism enabling the user (by turning a handle) to raise or lower the platform and himself with little effort. You can think of it as a kind of single-person aerial work platform for low heights.

When to use a personnel lift?

Personnel lifts are mainly used for professional purposes and are a simple, high-performance and safe alternative to traditional stepladders, ladders and mobile access and working towers. The platform lift is suitable for working heights of up to around four metres. Ideal for installation, maintenance and infrastructure work. Need a higher working height? Then opt for a mobile access and working tower.
