Scissor lifts are a type of aerial lift designed to allow people to work safely above ground. They can handle most types of work that normally require a ladder, tower or scaffolding. They also enable operators to complete jobs faster and safer without the setup time required of ladders and other equipment.
 
Primary benefits of scissor lifts include:
 
-Productivity. Workers complete jobs quicker because they can focus on the job rather than worrying about unstable supports.
 
-Flexibility. Scissor lifts can be used indoors and outdoors in many different environments and under varying work conditions.
 
-Compact Design. Scissor lifts don't take up much space when retracted. This makes them easy to move around in cramped warehouses and storage sites.
 
-Ease of Transfer. Scissor lifts don't have to be dismantled to move from one job site to another. They can be towed easily and safely when retracted.
 
Scissor lifts are one of the safest types of aerial lifts. The safety harness, cable, sturdy platform and railing all combine to provide a high level of safety for work performed at low to medium heights. Scissor lifts are also one of the most versatile types of industrial equipment. On job sites that require working above ground, they: -Provide a safe, reliable way to lift workers and equipment into the air
 
-Provide access to hard-to-reach places
 
-Are ideal for lifting or moving heavy loads in confined spaces
 
-Can be used in a wide range of work situations An Aerial Lift With Endless Uses
When most people think of scissor lifts, they think of specific uses such as landscape maintenance (tree trimming) and power line repair. However, scissor lifts are widely used in diverse industries. These include:
 
-Agriculture
 
-Construction
 
-Building maintenance
 
-Manufacturing
 
-Chemical processing
 
-Food processing
 
-Retail
 
-Transportation and delivery
 
-Education
 
-Warehousing and storage
 
-Health care
 
For a tool that doesn't do much more than go straight up and down, scissor lifts are used for an amazing number of job site applications. Common applications include:
 
-Construction. Scissor lifts provide flexible solutions for construction projects of all types and sizes. They can be used for installing windows, delivering tools and equipment to upper stories of tall buildings and much more. Their durable design makes them ideal for building renovation and general contracting.
 
-Delivery. Okay, scissor lifts aren't actually used to deliver things. But they play a key role for delivery companies by fetching products from the shelves and getting them to the loading dock in a timely manner.
 
-Overhead signs. You'll often see highway workers using scissor lifts to install or replace freeway signs. They are also used when hanging commercial signs on buildings and other free-standing objects.
 
-Railroads. What? Scissor lifts in railroad yards? You bet! Railyard jobs such as loading and fitting into narrow spaces to reach up high require the use of scissor lifts every day.
 
-Retail. From the big-name stores to smaller operations, retailers use scissor lifts to move products around store and warehouse shelves. In warehouses, they are often used to change high overhead lights, repair ceilings and more.
 
-Transportation. Trucking distribution centers would struggle to operate without scissor lifts. Few tools are better at safely reaching and moving pallets, roll cages and parts stored at high levels when loading and unloading large trucks. Some of the more unusual scissor lift applications include:
 
-Underside inspections. When repairing small vehicles, pieces of machinery or other devices, it's often necessary to gain underside access. Special types of scissor lifts, called automotive lifts, are specifically designed to lift cars, trucks and other vehicles.
 
-Animal rescue. Do they really use scissor lifts to get cats down out of trees? It happens more often than you might think – and it's safer than using a ladder. Also, scissor lifts can reach higher and access parts of trees ladders can't get to.
 
-Sports venue setup. In sports arenas, scissor lifts provide safe, sturdy access when making repairs to overhead lighting and scoreboards. Game officials often use them to measure the 10-ft. height of basketball hoops.
 
-Observation. When monitoring large crowds, police and security firms often use scissor lifts to get a “birds-eye” view of the situation.
 
-Thrills and chills. Scissor lifts are even used for roller-coaster maintenance and repairs. Some repairs are performed on walkways built into the rides. Scissor lifts provide safe access to the-hard-to-reach areas that can't be accessed from the walkways. Choose Quentin Lift for your aerial lift and scissor lift purchasing needs.
