Whether you’re working on a large construction project, updating the roof of a building or washing windows, equipment access platforms can save time, energy and keep workers safe when working at height. These versatile and portable work equipment solutions are used across the UK construction industry to provide easy, quick, and secure access to hard-to-reach areas. They feature tower-like constructions and can be stationary or semi-stationary with lockable casters to move them in confined spaces.
Equipment access platforms are usually operated by one person only and often come with safety features to prevent worker accidents such as falling off the platform or becoming trapped inside a cab. These include anchor points for workers to attach their safety harnesses and emergency stop buttons. They also have anti-slip surfaces and tilt sensors to detect unsafe angles and avoid tip-overs.
Efficiency Elevated: Optimizing Workflow with Equipment Access Platforms
They’re also more durable than ladders and rope descent systems which can feel shaky on even stable ground. Using a ladder can also require workers to use just one hand, limiting the quality and speed of their work and making them more likely to be injured or cause equipment damage.
Whether you need a mobile access platform to help with routine maintenance or to tackle an upcoming major refurbishment, our fleet of state-of-the-art MEWPs has the solution for your needs. Vehicle mounted booms and trailer mounted articulating boom lifts are ideal for outdoor projects with high up and over access while self-propelled runabouts and stock picking MEWPs can be used in congested or confined areas with zero tail swing.
