Which platform is right for your project?
Van Mounted Platforms:
- Ideal for: Fast, mobile work in urban areas and confined spaces, such as street lighting, signage, and tree maintenance.
- Best for: Projects requiring heights under 16.5m and frequent movement between sites.
- Advantages: Excellent manoeuvrability, minimal traffic disruption, and often more cost-effective for short-term rentals.
- Limitations: Lower height and lifting capacity compared to truck-mounted platforms.
Truck Mounted Platforms:
- Best for: Large-scale construction, bridge work, and high-rise projects demanding significant height and heavy lifting.
- Ideal for: Tasks exceeding 16.5m that involve lifting substantial loads.
- Advantages: Exceptional reach and lifting power, designed for demanding applications.
- Limitations: Larger footprint, potential permit requirements, and higher rental costs.
Key Considerations for Your Choice:
- Height Requirements: What is the required vertical reach?
- Lifting Needs: How much weight needs to be lifted?
- Site Accessibility: How easily can the work area be accessed?
- Rental Period: How long will the platform be needed?
- Budget: What is your budget?
