Obtaining the best and most useful MEWP innovations for our clients will always be work in progress for Elev8.
Some of the key innovations that already exist in our current MEWP hire fleet to make your work at height safer and more efficient can be found below.
Sometimes you need to work at height indoors or on a site that has restrictions on the use of diesel engines for safety reasons. Our tracked access platforms are dual fuel, meaning they can be powered by electric for high level tasks indoors avoiding harm from diesel fumes.
Tracked assess MEWPS are relatively light compared to other access platforms, which is useful when working on sites with restricted load limits. Available with an operator or for self-drive hire our tracked access platforms offer up to 36 metres of working height. Some examples of where a tracked access platform could be useful are;
As well as a safe platform for lifting people, MEWPS can be used to lift the equipment and materials they need (subject to capacity). Using just one piece of equipment can simplify the lifting operation, save you money and reduce the space needed for plant. To account for different shapes and sizes of load we have a range of specialist lifting accessories available.
Electric or manual winches that attach to the MEWP cage. We have several cage winches options, with carrying capacity up to 400kg. Our Bronto 200kg cage winches are designed to work with the trucks trucks telemetry.
Elev8’s boom winches safely lift loads up to 1300Kg. They are designed by the MEWP manufacturers and recognised by the truck’s telemetry.
An adjustable framework that attaches to the outside of the MEWP basket. Used for lifting bulky materials such as panes of glass or signage. Lifting frames are available fitted to MEWPS of 35m or above.
All lifting projects are unique and need to be planned by a competent person. Elev8’s qualified Appointed Persons are here if you need assistance with lift planning, or we can take care of the whole lifting operation for you with our contract lifting service. Find more information about lifting with MEWPS here.
Elev8’s tracked access platforms have innovative out rigger positioning technology which means they can be safely set up on complicated sites.
A fully hydraulic levelling system with outrigger set up monitoring allows them to be set up on slopes, or where there are obstacles in the way.
Projects with limited set up space are not a problem for our tracked access platforms. They have variable outrigger systems allowing one-side or both-side narrow set up options which allow them to be safely set up in more complicated configurations.
We also hire MEWPS with off-road capabilities for when you need to work at height off the beaten track.
Our P130 pick-up mounted MEWP is mounted on a Izuzu D-Max chassis. This 4×4 cherry picker can provide up to 13.1m of working height and up to 6.2m reach.
Our range of tracked access platforms have variable track height adjustments which means they can be driven in transport position on some slopes and hills whilst staying stable and level.
Once at the set-up location, our tracked access platforms have a fully hydraulic levelling system with outrigger set up monitoring which allows them to be set up on complicated ground conditions.
MEWPs don’t just go upwards, some of them can go down too!
Negative reach is where the MEWP cage is lowered below the level of the truck. Some of the MEWPs in our hire fleet have up to 15 metres of negative reach, very useful when you
For outdoor filmsets where you need to film at height, we hire MEWPS with attachments designed to produce smooth camera footage from an elevated location or to shine a light on your film set. Find out how Elev8 can support your aerial filming project here.

Our S70XR access platform is available for hire with a specialist camera cage. This cage has camera mountings and a seat for the camera person’s comfort, and can be revolved for all round aerial filming.
A metal lighting rig that is attached to the MEWP basket.
Lighting arrays are attached to the rig, which can be held aloft and moved to provide film lighting precisely where you want it.
