HIRE Safe Solutions, a provider of mechanical powered access solutions for work at height, has started taking delivery of the high-reaching Genie ‘super booms’ that are being added to its fleet.
The current order includes ten SX-135 XC (Xtra Capacity), one SX-150, two SX-180 telescopic boom lifts, and ten ZX-135 articulating boom lifts.
Gerard Jennings, founder and CEO of Hire Safe Solutions, said demand is currently high for safe and reliable equipment for work at height on a range of UK projects.
“This year is Hire Safe Solution’s 10th year in business,” he explained. “Our customers trust us to deliver products and services on time, and we will not commit to anything we cannot do.
“Our fleet, which has more than 1,200 machines, already includes more super booms than any other hire company in the UK. These new booms will ensure we can continue to meet our customers’ needs for quality equipment in the honest, reliable manner we are known for.”
The SX-135 XC boasts a capacity of 300kg unrestricted/454kg restricted. This ability to lift heavy loads, combined with a max working height of 43.15m and max outreach of 27.43m is said to make the model ‘ideal’ for even the most challenging applications.
The ZX-135 articulating boom, meanwhile, was selected due to its ‘uniqueness’ when it comes to height and configuration, with an extending jib up to 6.1m.
The acquisition of the SX-150 and the SX-180 telescopic boom lifts with unrestricted lift capacity of 340kg will complete the fleet of ‘super booms’ with working heights up to 56.86m.
