Scissor Lifts

Scissor lifts are vertical access platforms that use a folding criss-cross pantograph mechanism to achieve fantastic working heights. They are a popular choice for many industrial uses as they are ideal for indoor or outdoor construction jobs. Hire Safe Solutions have a very versatile fleet of scissor lifts suited for a wide variety of applications and tasks.

Our fleet includes a great range of super scissor lifts that can reach above 30 metres. These machines allow extensive heights to be reached whilst still ensuring safety and stability when working at full height. We are proud to stock a huge range of specialist access equipment that meets even the toughest demands. What’s more, we stock the largest fleet of Holland MegaStar Scissor lifts in all of Europe. If you need a large and trustworthy machine for working at significant height, experts at Hire Safe Solutions will be sure to have a model in stock to suit your needs. Electric scissors and diesel scissor lifts are available to choose from.

Many people choose scissor lifts for their reliability and diversity. They perform equally well for indoor or outdoor applications and the narrow width of the models mean that they offer fantastic maneuverability, even in tight spaces. The cross-hatch design is extremely secure and provides even weight distribution across the platform. This design ensures the stability of the machine, even when moving across rough terrains. What’s more, the large working platform offers plenty of space to carry equipment or multiple people at once. 

Our fleet includes equipment from some of the leading distributors in the industry such as Holland, JLG and Dingli. Some of our most popular Super MEWPs include the HL220 E12 and the HL330 E14. These machines, from industry giant Holland, offer working heights of 21.7 and 33 metres respectively.

The E12 is one of the most common 20+ metre scissor lifts available and its popularity is due to its narrow width of 1.2 metres, making it especially easy to navigate through small, tight spaces. The E14 is an electric-powered four wheel drive MEWP with a lifting capacity of 1,000kg which can even be moved under load while fully extended. Both machines offer fantastic levels of performance and safety.

For the most demanding applications, the Holland Lift Megastar HL 340 is one of the largest super scissor lifts available in the UK. The diesel-powered machine offers a staggering working height of 33.5 metres and a safe working load of 1,000kg. The machine allows the operator to drive at full height and it also has on-board generators for use with power tools on site.
