Suspended Access Cradle Hire

Apollo Cradles supply temporary access cradle solutions for hire nationwide, throughout the UK.

Suspended cradles (also known as suspended access platforms) are safe working areas hung from cables that can be raised and lowered into position using powered winches.

Suspended cradles are widely used for maintenance, cleaning, inspection and installation work on both the external and internal sides of buildings and structures.

Mast Climber Hire

Apollo Cradles supply mast climber work platforms for hire nationwide, throughout the UK.

Mast climbers are powered access solutions consisting of an elevating work platform fixed to either single or twin vertical masts. The work platform travels up and down the mast(s) using an automated power unit (APU).

Mast climbers provide fast, efficient and affordable temporary access to a wide range of construction and maintenance work. Unlike conventional scaffolding, the entire platform moves with the workers, so the operator can spend more time on productive tasks.

Mast climber work platforms are a modular steel construction, with platform lengths ranging from 2.8 – 13.4 metres for a single mast and 6.7 – 35.9 metres for a twin mast.

This flexibility enables Apollo Cradles to erect a safe and efficient work platform to match the length of the building facade being accessed. Mast climbers can work up to 9 metres high free standing, or travel up to 150 metres tied to a building with a maximum load capacity of 4550kg for a twin mast.

For more specialist applications, Apollo Cradles can provide mast climber solutions for working on angled facades of either 80, 100, or 110 degrees. Even at these angles the platforms maintain a level plane, giving a safe and practical working area.
