Whilst they have increased production they are quoting, in some cases up to 15 months for delivery dates for a brand new platform.
At busy times it is anticipated that aerial work platforms may not be as readily available as they previously have been from rental companies.
So planning to work at a height, according to the HSE regulations and with the exact type of equipment that is best suited for the application may be more difficult.
Hence ending up with a platform that is not best suited for the job, or delaying the work.
Many companies have recognised that whilst renting may have been their preferred method of obtaining platforms to work at a height HSE standards requires them to have a platform available 24/7 to ensure that they work at a height safely at all times.
Aerial work platforms can now be obtained on flexible contract rental, providing platforms tailored to the applications, without capital expenditure (from as little as £55 / week) and minimising responsibility associated with the ownership of a platform.
Businesses are tending to move towards contract rental for a complete work at height solution.
