Why Choose Our Spider Lifts?
Designed for Restricted Access Projects
Our spider lifts are purpose-built for environments where traditional access platforms simply won’t fit – whether that’s due to narrow doorways, tight corridors, restricted loading access, delicate flooring, or confined internal spaces.
Unlike larger boom lifts or scissor lifts, spider lifts feature a compact footprint and tracked base, allowing them to pass through standard double doors, navigate tight turns, and operate safely in areas with limited manoeuvring room. This makes them ideal for shopping centres, atriums, heritage buildings, glass installations, mezzanines, and internal fit-out projects where space is at a premium.
Their low ground pressure tracks distribute weight evenly, meaning they can operate on sensitive surfaces such as tiled floors, marble, raised flooring systems, and other finished interiors without causing damage. For projects where disruption must be kept to a minimum – particularly in retail or public environments – this is a major advantage.
When access is restricted, deadlines are tight, and precision matters, spider lifts provide a practical and efficient solution where standard platforms simply cannot operate safely or effectively.

Our comprehensive range of spider lifts is available for hire with multiple power options including electric, diesel and hybrid machines – meaning you can select the right lift for your job, environment and budget.
Spider lifts are designed to deliver access in places traditional platforms struggle – from narrow doorways and atriums to uneven outdoor terrain and sensitive indoor flooring. With tracked systems and compact transport dimensions, they’re perfect for projects where space is restricted but performance is essential.
