Hire an Electric Scissor Lift Today from APL

Scissor Lifts are aerial work platforms that feature criss-crossing braces that extend upward. Scissor lifts predominately only move up and down however most now feature an extending deck to allow for a bit of increased movement when elevated.

Scissor Lift Pros

• Larger platform size – Scissor lifts are ideal for jobs when multiple men need to be lifted and still require the ability to move around when in the air.
• Larger lift capacities – They also tend to have greater lift capacities than boom lifts meaning you can lift more equipment on the deck.

Scissor Lift Cons

• Lower working heights – Most Scissor lifts tend to have lower working heights than boom lifts.
• Reduced manoeuvrability – Because they can only move vertically, they cannot be moved up and over obstacles unlike boom lifts
