Hoist Solutions
Vertical hoists
A vertical hoist is used to move materials and equipment up and down the sides of buildings or structures during construction.
They are designed to attach to scaffold and run on either single or twin mast sections, depending on the scale of the project and the weight loads required.
Our range of vertical hoists for hire are supplied by Böcker and ALIMAK, two of the world’s leading manufacturers of high-quality, reliable and innovative lifting technology.
Available in capacities of 300kg, 500kg and 2000kg, simple to operate and suitable for both materials and people transporting, they are popular with roofing contractors and construction site managers working on large multi-storey projects.
All our vertical hoists are available for short and long term hire, with full technical support, installation and onsite operator training.

Why use a vertical hoist?
Vertical hoists deliver valuable access benefits on high-rise and multi-floor construction and repair projects, enhancing productivity, safety, and overall project timelines.
- Efficiency – with a vertical hoist, materials and/or people can be transported up and down the side of a building in a matter of minutes saving time and keeping work flowing.
- Ease of use – vertical hoists are easy to load, unload and stop/start at different floors, ensuring people and materials are easily transported to the right location on site.
- Safety – all our hoists feature safety brakes to prevent falls should the hoist ever malfunction.
- Reduced risk of injury – moving materials up and down the side of a building with a vertical hoist reduces the need for manual handling and in turn the risk of injuries.act designs reduce space requirements and increase manoeuvrability
- Flexibility - our single and twin mast vertical hoist hire provides the flexibility for short or long-term hire, as and when needed.
