When a London decking contractor
found the timbers for a roof terrace
would not fit in the lift or up the
stairs, the company found a
solution in the form of RPH Hire
Services’ outside elevator.

The truck mounted elevator, in
this case with a 400kg capacity, has
a slow start and stop mechanism
for delicate loads.

The system offers a cost effective
alternative to using a crane, which
could also have access issues. In
contrast, the outside elevator can be
installed in many awkward
situations.
