Specialist scissor lift installation

Chase Equipment have recently completed two scissor lifts for a new shopping centre in London. One lift is for disabled access from the Car Park. The lift and enclosure are manufactured from steel in-house and are designed to meet the hard usage of the environment.

The doors are automatic, featuring integrated electric motors below the floor. The lift complies with BS6440, 'powered lifting platforms for use by disabled persons', and BS EN 1570 safety requirements for lifting tables. The lift was designed to fit within an existing pit area.

In addition a scissor lift with 2000Kg capacity was installed to remove a transformer in event of failure. Complete with enclosure and interlocks, Chase Equipment also supplied and installed roller shutter door.

Tailored ramp and dock leveller installation

Chase Equipment have recently installed two static ramps and dock levellers for a Worldwide Chemical Company. The shortened Titan 7 mobile yard ramps are fitted to dock levellers on modules complete with traffic lifts and pedestrian access stairs. The scheme is designed to accommodate heavy usage and quick turnaround to vehicles. The static ramps were shortened to give the minimum length of scheme possible (whilst giving a workable ramp gradient) due to turning circle constraints within the road.

Upgrade and refurbishment of customer's existing equipment

Chase Equipment has completed a refurbishment and upgrading for a major dairy company. This included an extension to an existing modular dock, refurbishing of a scissor lift and repairs to doors.

In addition door safety was improved with fitment of anti trap strips, new buffers and traffic lights.
