Choosing the Right Lift for Your Project: Electrical vs. Diesel Scissor Lifts

Selecting the right type of scissor lift can make all the difference. Are you torn between the efficiency of electric lifts and the power of diesel?

Electric Scissor Lifts: Perfect for indoor use, these lifts are eco-friendly and quieter, making them ideal for warehouses and other indoor environments. With zero emissions and lower running costs, they're a fantastic choice if you want to minimise your carbon footprint while maximising productivity.

Diesel Scissor Lifts: On the flip side, if your project is outside and requires tackling rough terrain, diesel scissor lifts pack a punch with their robust power and off-road capabilities. They can handle challenging environments with ease, making them the go-to for construction sites and outdoor events.

Dive deeper into the pros and cons of each type of machine and find out which one suits your project best. Check out our latest blog post for a comprehensive guide: https://hubs.ly/Q02N870y0

Electric vs Diesel Scissor Lifts: Which Is Right For Your Next Project?

Scissor lifts are a must-have equipment for various installation, repair, and maintenance tasks. From HVAC to mechanical and electrical work, these versatile machines can handle it all.

But with so many options available, how do you choose the right scissor lift for your project? Factors like power source (electric, diesel, or hybrid), location, emissions, and noise regulations all play a role in your decision-making process.

Big wheels keep on turning, and so do we.

We’ve invested in an amazing new fleet of EURO 6 trucks to continue to ensure we provide the highest standard of service to our customers. By investing in the latest truck technology, it helps us deliver powered access efficiently and sustainably as possible.

We have five DAF XD 26T and one DAF XB 18T trucks taking our total fleet to 11, and all are fitted with delivery planning software that maps routes in a way to reduce mileage as much as possible. They also have windows in the passenger door to avoid a notorious blind spot for drivers.

Thank you to Leeds Commercial for providing the trucks and to Sterling for the customised beavertail body & trailer.

This is the reason we have launched an exciting new business ⤵️

If you regularly work from height in one location, it can often be more cost effective and convenient to buy an access platform, rather than hire.

Backed by Horizon Platforms and our skilled team, Platformsupermarket.com aims to revolutionise how businesses acquire and manage their MEWPs.

Rory Duggan, Director, comments:

“We’re aiming to provide the easiest and most convenient way to own a platform. We’ll ensure the machines are perfectly matched to customer requirements, and that they are looked after for years to come. Our unique positioning with Horizon Platforms allows us to do this like no one else can.

“Owning a machine can be the most cost-effective option for manufacturing, logistics and warehousing companies, as it means the machine is always available when they need it the most. The feedback we’ve had so far has been outstanding.”
