Engineered for Heavy-Duty Environments
Our robust and reliable industrial lift solutions for warehouses are engineered to handle the toughest industrial demands, with load capacities ranging from 50kg to 10,000kg.

The APL Goods Scissor Lift is a versatile open vertical scissor platform for indoor or outdoor use, offering capacities of up to 10,000kg and vertical travel of up to 6 metres (an enclosure is required above 3 metres). Supplied as standard with interlocked gates and barriers in a powder-coated finish, it can be tailored with a range of finishes and safety options.

With capacities from 500kg to 10,000kg, they are ideal for transporting equipment within large commercial and industrial buildings.
For combined goods and passenger movement, the APL Heavy-Duty Cabin Lift and APL Heavy-Duty Platform Lift are Machinery Directive certified, allowing goods and personnel to be transported safely and simultaneously.
