Types of Businesses We Serve
Access platforms offer a practical solution for businesses that need to work at height, providing a range of options to suit different industries and applications.
Construction
Access equipment is essential for construction companies to ensure the safety of their workers, improve productivity, and complete projects on time and within budget
Warehousing & Logistics
Access equipment allows warehouse workers to retrieve and store products at height more quickly and safely, reducing the risk of accidents and injuries that can occur when reaching for heavy or awkwardly shaped items.
Facilities Maintenance
Access equipment is essential for facilities maintenance teams to ensure worker safety, improve efficiency, and complete maintenance tasks to a high standard.
Manufacturing
Access equipment enables manufacturing workers to perform tasks such as assembly, inspection, and maintenance at height more safely and effectively. It allows them to access areas such as production lines, machinery, and conveyors, which can be difficult to reach using conventional methods.
Events & Media
Access equipment enables events and media teams to set up and install equipment such as lighting, sound systems, cameras, and screens at height or on uneven surfaces, which would be difficult to do without the proper equipment.
Aviation
Access equipment enables aviation maintenance teams to perform tasks such as inspection, repair, and cleaning on aircraft at height more safely and effectively. It allows them to access areas such as the wings, tail, and engines of an aircraft, which can be difficult to reach using conventional methods.

Do I need to be trained in order to use a MEWP?
Yes, you will need to have sufficient training in order to operate a MEWP. This is a legal obligation of your employer. If you have not been trained, we recommend internationally recognised IPAF courses to get that box ticked off.
Do you offer IPAF training?
Yes, we do. By working closely with local training providers, ATP is happy to offer IPAF courses for a minimum of 4 delegates. For further information and to discuss pricing and availability, please give our office a call on 01733 348915.
The MEWP has developed a fault, how do I report this?
We’re sorry to hear this. Please call the office on 01733 348915 or send an email to hiredesk@atphire.com. Our hire team will then log your breakdown with the engineering department who will call the operator on site straight away. If we cannot fix the fault over the phone, we’ll come to site to get you back up and running ASAP!
Are the MEWPs inspected?
Yes. All of our MEWPs are subjected to a 6-monthly thorough examination (LOLER) to ensure they’re fit for purpose at all times. One of our engineers also carries out post hire and pre-hire inspections of each machine to ensure that the machines arrive on site in excellent condition for you.
Can you supply an operator?
All of ATP’s hires are provided on a self-drive basis. We have on occasions been able to source operators through our supply chain in certain circumstances at an additional cost. For further information then please contact the office.
Do I require a Harness to operate a MEWP?
You will require a Harness when undertaking work in a Boom Lift. You do not require a Harness whilst working in a Scissor Lift.There are however plenty of sites that will require a Harness to be worn in a Scissor Lift so it’s always best to have one just with you.
Do you sell Harnesses?
Yes, we can supply Harnesses on a sale only basis. Please give us a call on 01733 348915 or send an email to hiredesk@atphire.com and we will provide a quote for you.
How long can I hire a machine for?
The short answer is as long as you like! We offer competitive 1 day, 2/3 day and weekly hire rates as well as contract hires if your requirement is required for 1 year with varying options for most budgets.
I need my machine to be on site early, is this achievable?
Our drivers are early birds, so getting MEWPs to you early in the morning will not be a problem but any specific delivery time would need to be agreed in advance to allow us to plan our transport accordingly.
