To determine the right size cherry picker, consider these key factors: Working height required (the maximum height you need to reach plus a safety margin); Horizontal outreach needed (how far you need to reach horizontally from the machine's base); Access restrictions (doorway widths, ceiling heights, weight limitations of floors); Ground conditions (smooth concrete, rough terrain, slopes); Space available for setup and operation; Weight capacity requirements (including operators, tools, and materials). Our specialists can help assess your specific requirements and recommend the most appropriate equipment for your project. We can also conduct site surveys for complex applications to ensure the equipment will be suitable for your environment.

Articulating booms (also called knuckle booms) have multiple hinged sections that can bend and flex, allowing them to reach up and over obstacles. They excel at accessing difficult areas with complex approach paths and are ideal for working around structures or in confined spaces. Telescopic booms (also called straight booms) have a straight arm that extends outward, providing greater horizontal outreach at height. They're ideal for applications requiring maximum height and reach in a straight line, such as building facades or open construction sites. Articulating booms offer more versatility in complex environments, while telescopic booms generally provide greater outreach capabilities. Your specific application will determine which type is more suitable.

Yes, cherry pickers can be used indoors, but you must select the appropriate type. For indoor use, electric-powered models are essential as they produce zero emissions, eliminating the health risks associated with diesel exhaust in enclosed spaces. Key considerations for indoor use include: Floor load capacity (can the floor support the weight of the machine?); Doorway and ceiling clearance (will the machine fit through entrances and under ceilings?); Non-marking tires (to prevent damage to finished floors); Power source (access to charging for electric models); Noise restrictions (electric models are significantly quieter). We offer a range of electric articulating and telescopic booms specifically designed for indoor applications, as well as compact spider lifts that can navigate through standard doorways.
