How spider lift access works, step by step

1. Tell us what you need to reach

   A photo of the approach and the target is usually enough. We check working height, outreach, gateway width, ground type and whether the machine needs to travel through a building.

2. We plan the set-up and paperwork

   Site-specific RAMS are prepared for every job, covering exclusion zones, ground bearing, overhead services and rescue arrangements. Anything a facilities team needs for a permit is issued in advance.

3. Track in, level, deploy

   The lift tracks in on rubber pads at walking pace, self-levels on its outriggers and is ready to work. Set-up is measured in minutes, not the days a scaffold erection would take.

4. Work the task, leave no trace

   Our operator positions the basket for each element of the job, then the machine folds back down and tracks out. No fixings, no ties, no scaffold left standing over a weekend.

Who spider lift access is for

• Property managers and managing agents needing periodic access to roofs, gutters and façades without erecting scaffold
• Facilities teams with atriums, plant rooms, high-level lighting and internal glazing to maintain
• Surveyors and contractors who need a safe working platform for a few hours rather than a week
• Homeowners with high roofs, chimneys, solar arrays or trees behind restricted access
• Retail, hospitality and education sites where a scaffold would block trade or a fire route

Why choose LADS for spider lift access

• No scaffold means no design, no erection period, no weekly hire creep and no unsecured structure inviting people onto your roof at night.
• Rubber tracks and spread outriggers let us cross block paving, lawns and podium decks with far less risk of damage than a wheeled machine.
• Because the operator is ours, the access and the work can be delivered by the same team on the same visit — the reason we describe most jobs as one team, one day.
• IPAF-aligned working practice and comprehensive RAMS on every job, backed by public liability insurance.
