Scissor Lift Hire
Scissor lift hire for safe, stable work at height — a wide platform that goes straight up, ideal for ceilings, installations, shop-fitting and maintenance. Nationwide.
A stable platform at height
A scissor lift raises a wide work platform straight up, giving room for people, tools and materials at height. It’s ideal for ceiling and roof work, installing services, lighting and signage, warehouse and shop-fitting work, and general maintenance.
Tell us the working height, whether you’re working indoors or outdoors, and the floor or ground conditions, and we’ll recommend a suitable scissor lift for the job.
Book scissor lift hire on its own or alongside a crane or cherry picker, so all your lifting and access is handled by one team — anywhere in South Africa.

When should I use a scissor lift instead of a cherry picker?
Use a scissor lift when you need to go straight up with more people, tools or materials on a larger platform. Choose a cherry picker when you need to reach up and over obstacles.

Scissor lifts are commonly used indoors for ceilings, services and shop-fitting. Tell us you’re working inside and we’ll recommend a suitable machine.
