Construction News Image

Lakeside Hire has launched (NEW) BOSS PA-LIFT Scissor Lifts.

Do you need more height and platform space for your next construction project?

Are you looking to get the job done faster, with less effort and increased safety?

If you're in the market for a quality powered-access lift for one-time use, then the BoSS PA-Lift is the ideal solution. The full MEMP Hire range can be found here.

Why use a scissor lift?

Using ladders or scaffolds can be dangerous. Contractors have been dealing with a serious uptake in fall injuries and stray debris accidents. The construction industry is always tough, but these problems are costly when it comes to dealing with insurance companies.

The scissor lift can help you avoid these issues by providing a safe, steady enclosure and a rising platform, this helps you do your work safely and efficiently.

Scissor lifts are commonly used for indoor and outdoor construction work. Their height gives you an excellent working range without having to use scaffolding or build a mast climb structure which means there is less time spent on site

Which kind of scissor lift do I need?

Here are the main things to consider when choosing a scissor lift.

Weight capacity

Each scissor lift has specific weight limitations. Some are more powerful than others. Larger tasks call for stronger scissor lifts. So, ask yourself how heavy are the items you need to lift? The BoSS PA-Lift has an incredible load capacity of 250kg making it suitable for most tasks.

Size

Getting the job done in a smaller space means getting in and out of tight spots and manoeuvring through crowded areas. The BoSS PA-lift’s compact dimensions are perfect for these types of jobs. And it fits through any standard door or into a passenger elevator too!

Height capacity

When you're looking for a scissor lift, it’s important to consider the height of the model required according to the work that needs to be done. Some scissor lifts can reach greater heights than others. The BoSS PA-lift has a platform height of 3.4m and an impressive safe working height of 5.4m.

Why choose the BoSS PA-Lift?

The BoSS PA-Lift Scissor Lift is a self-propelled lift with a maximum working height of 5.4m, making it the perfect choice for indoor projects from electrical installation to drywall hanging. Its platform height also makes it ideal for use on construction sites and in hospitals, schools, airports, shopping centres, retail outlets, transport environments, factories, and offices.

It can easily be operated by one person, with two adding further stability. It has an ergonomically designed control panel, with an integrated tilt/overview indicator for accurate positioning. Their stable aluminium chassis ensures a safe and comfortable platform.

The BoSS PA-Lift features an overhead proximity sensor for head protection and built-in impact protection to guard against damage to internal finishes.

It also comes with a control unit and smartphone integration, which allows faults to be diagnosed quickly thereby reducing machine downtime.

The machine's compact dimensions mean manoeuvrability is easy and it can be used in a wide variety of applications on construction sites, in factories and warehouses or where space is limited.
