Electric Scissor Lifts

Adaptalift has over a dozen electric-powered lifts. Some of these can reach up to 13 metres. Others can also handle loads of up to half a tonne.

Electric scissor lifts offer many advantages over their hydraulic counterparts. Not only are they better for the environment, they’re also cheaper to run.

Popular Electric Scissor Lifts

Large-scale warehouses often opt for scissor lifts with big platforms and height capacities. An electric rough terrain scissor lift is also good for outdoor work.

Types of Electric Scissor Lifts Available

Adaptalift has a whole fleet of electric lifts, each with their own unique focus. This includes narrow electric scissor lifts for items in hard-to-reach gaps.

About Our Electric Scissor Lifts

Electric scissor lifts are great for any crew needing to access something high-up. This can be for repairing light fixtures in large rooms, or even retrieving items on high shelves. This makes them useful in nearly any industry.

A mobile electric scissor lift is also quite narrow by default. They can usually get into small spaces without any trouble. This gives them even greater flexibility for warehouses. These lifts can easily navigate settings of all sizes.

While these tools excel indoors, they can also help outdoor teams. Our fleet of electric scissor lifts includes a number of all-terrain options. Workers are then able to reach high structures and, for example, carry out routine maintenance.

Renting or buying an electric scissor lift can make your warehouse more efficient. In fact, these lifts have better uptime than hydraulic lifts. Their electric motor can also get them from A to B more quickly.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an electric scissor lift?

An electric-powered scissor lift uses an electric motor to raise workers as well as materials. This helps with construction work, order picking, and maintenance.

The lift’s mechanism offers controlled elevation at a range of heights. They are best for indoor use and operate quietly while offering high levels of precision.

How long do electric scissor lifts take to charge?

It takes around 6–8 hours to fully charge an electric scissor lift. However, different models and sizes will naturally have different battery capacities.

For example, a mini electric scissor lift can charge up in just a few hours. We only stock models with fully-working batteries that can handle continuous work.

What are the advantages of using electric scissor lifts over hydraulic models?

These models are more environmentally-friendly and will make next to no noise. On top of this, they’re more reliable in colder climates than hydraulic systems.

Electric lifts have fewer operating and maintenance costs to deal with over time. They’re also generally easier to use and often have faster travel speeds.

What is the maximum height and load capacity of an electric scissor lift?

Some of Adaptalift’s models have a working height of over 13 metres. There are also options for 3–5 metres, if you’re only dealing with mid-level goods.

Most electric scissor lifts can carry loads of up to 200-250 kg. Some, such as the E-Tech S0812ACE, can handle up to 450 kg.

How do I choose the right electric scissor lift for indoor or outdoor use?

Always weigh up your options before renting/buying. If you’re mainly working outside (such as on a construction site), consider an electric all-terrain scissor lift.

For small tasks, a portable electric scissor lift may be all you need. The Adaptalift team is happy to help you make the right choice.
