Slab Scissor Lifts For Sale in United Kingdom

About Slab Scissor Lifts

Slab scissor lifts are primarily used indoors on hard surfaces, where their quiet operation and nimble manoeuvrability make them indispensable for overhead tasks. They’re ubiquitous for a number of jobs such as light bulb replacement, HVAC and skylight maintenance, alarm and sensor testing, remodeling and interior construction, and much more. Scissor lifts get their name from their hinged folding mechanisms reminiscent of automotive scissor jacks and kitchen shears.

Compact But Capable

Being smaller than their rough terrain big brothers, slab scissor lifts still have ample lifting capacity in the 230- to 540-kilogram ballpark. They also run closer to the ground and have a lower center of gravity than their outdoor counterparts, and can maneuver in more confined spaces with a tighter turning radius.

Find The Right Slab Scissor Lifts

Slab lifts typically have non-marking, solid rubber wheels, with some exceptions. Likewise, most of these lifts are fully electric, although some are dual fuel models with the option to run on either gasoline or propane/liquefied petroleum gas (LPG). If a slab scissor lift includes stabilisers, they’re usually discreet units (e.g. under the chassis) rather than large external outriggers.
