Need to reach over obstacles or work at extreme heights? That’s where a boom lift comes in.

 

A boom lift (also known as a cherry picker or man lift) is an aerial work platform used to elevate workers and tools to hard-to-reach areas, especially where a straight vertical lift isn’t enough.

 

Unlike scissor lifts, boom lifts have articulating or telescopic arms that offer both vertical and horizontal reach, making them ideal for navigating around structures, machinery, or terrain.

 

🔧 Types of Boom Lifts:

 

⭐Telescopic Boom Lift (Straight Boom)

⭐Extends in a straight line

⭐Offers maximum height and outreach

⭐Best for open outdoor areas

⭐Articulating Boom Lift (Knuckle Boom)

⭐Features jointed arms that bend

⭐Perfect for reaching over obstacles or around tight spots

⭐Great for maintenance, repair, and installation work in complex spaces

 

💡 Key Features & Benefits:

📎Access heights up to 40 meters (or more!)

📎Reach over barriers, rooftops, or machinery

📎Ideal for uneven ground or outdoor construction sites

📎 Compact options available for indoor use

📎 Available in electric, diesel, and hybrid models

📎 Optional baskets, safety rails, and controls for extra safety

 

📌 Common Boom Lift Applications:

 

✅Construction of tall buildings or bridges

✅Electrical and lighting work

✅Signboard installation

✅Tree trimming and landscaping

✅Stadium or convention center maintenance

✅Aircraft servicing and shipyard work

 

🦺 Safety Tip: Operators should always be trained and wear proper harnesses. Boom lifts offer great reach but require attention to wind, balance, and ground conditions.

 

If your worksite has obstacles, height challenges, or tight access points, a boom lift is the right solution for elevated efficiency and safety.

Let’s start with the basics — what exactly is a scissor lift, and why is it one of the most used aerial work platforms in industries today?

 

A scissor lift is a mechanical lifting device used to provide temporary access to elevated areas, usually for maintenance, construction, installation, or warehousing tasks. It gets its name from the scissor-like mechanism underneath the platform, which opens and closes to raise or lower the lift vertically.

 

Unlike boom lifts, scissor lifts can only move up and down, but they offer a larger and more stable work platform, making them perfect when working at height is required in a straight vertical direction.

 

🔧 How It Works:

 

The scissor lift is powered by hydraulic, electric, or diesel systems, depending on the model.

 

The platform sits atop folding supports that crisscross in an ''X'' pattern.

 

When power is applied, the supports push apart, extending the platform upwards.

 

💡 Why Use a Scissor Lift?

✅ Safe and secure elevation for 1–3 workers

✅ Ideal for indoor and outdoor use

✅ Commonly used for lighting work, HVAC, warehousing, façade maintenance, and renovations

✅ Available in various sizes (compact to heavy-duty models)

✅ Optional features: non-marking tires, extended decks, rough terrain tires, etc.

 

📌 Industries That Use Scissor Lifts:

 

⭐Warehousing & logistics

⭐Shopping malls & event halls

⭐Electrical & mechanical work

⭐Construction & fit-out contractors

⭐Cleaning services

⭐Manufacturing plants

 

🛠️ Whether you're working 6 meters off the ground or up to 16 meters, a scissor lift offers the stability, reach, and safety you need to get the job done efficiently.
