Scissor Lifts

Scissor lift rentals are easy with Mustang Cat. Scissor lifts provide work crews with the opportunity to move around and operate equipment safely at height. They typically feature larger work platforms than boom lifts, as well as improved stability in rough terrain. Potential industry applications include construction, utility work, material handling, maintenance and more.

Overview and Advantages of Using a Scissor Lift 

A scissor lift's main advantage is its larger platform and improved lift capacity. This makes it easier to carry multiple team members at once or bring equipment and tools that will improve your productivity. Another advantage to a scissor lift is that it can move even when the platform is fully extended, reducing the amount of time necessary to finish a job that's spread out over a larger geographic area.

The main drawbacks to a scissor lift are its limited flexibility and lower reach. Scissor lifts can't maneuver around obstacles the way an articulated boom can. They also require you to be directly underneath a worksite, which can be difficult in confined areas. If you're unsure whether a scissor lift is right for you, contact a Mustang Cat Rental Store expert for assistance.

When to Use a Scissor Lift

Scissor lifts are versatile machines that make any job safer and easier. A scissor lift has a platform that one or two people can use to work at heights, with enough space for tools and supplies. These machines also have onboard electrical outlets. They provide a safer alternative to ladders and scaffolding, are simple to use and can be quickly moved into position.

These machines are used in many different industries. They are ideal for creating safe, ergonomic and elevated workstations and lifting heavy materials high in the sky. Scissor lifts are also highly mobile machines, with excellent ground speed and gradability. You have many models to choose from, including options suited for indoor and outdoor use.

Scissor Lift Rental Options: Long vs Short Term

Our clients rent scissor lifts for a wide range of reasons. Often, a specific, one-off job will require work-at-height capability they don't currently have. Sometimes, renting a replacement scissor lift is necessary to stay productive while your current lift is down for repairs.

Renting a scissor lift is also great if you're working in a remote area where transporting your fleet wouldn't be cost-effective. Finally, extended renting can be a smart option, too — avoiding the commitment of a lease frees up your credit to put toward other expenses while still letting you enjoy the benefits of a high-quality, new machine.
