Many of them are compact in size and low in weight, enabling them to be transported in internal lifts.

Low level access hire from JMS

Low level access platforms offer a safer alternative to using ladders, steps and interior scaffolding platforms. They can make jobs easier, quicker and more efficient. Low level access machines provide a safe and secure environment for operatives to work at height.

Low level access platforms include both push around (manual) platforms as well as some self propelled models (electric / battery powered). Most are fitted with non-marking tyres to help protect floor finishes but can still be operated outside in certain conditions.


Benefits of Low Level Access hire 

Productivity – Low level access machines combine the flexibility and quick set up benefits of ladders and steps with enhanced safety and an improved worksite environment. This maximises productivity, especially when working in confined spaces. Setup and relocating times are often shorter than with scaffold systems.

Flexibility – Low level access machines can be used to carry out a wide range of maintenance and construction tasks and allow operatives to keep tools and materials close-by, boosting productivity.

Team Morale – Operatives increasingly appreciate the benefits that low level access machines give them in carrying out their work safely and efficiently. This can be good for staff retention as well as productivity.

IPAF Rental Plus Logo

Most of the IPAF training courses are 1 day courses and teach the skills and considerations needed to operate low level access platforms safely. Courses can be held at one of our IPAF approved training centres or at your premises if the site is suitable.

Upon successful completion of the IPAF course, candidates will be issued a digital IPAF Powered Access licence (PAL) card on the ePAL app. Certifications are valid for up to 5 years, after which the card will expire and the course will need to be taken again.


LOLER Inspections - Why we do it

LOLER inspections involve a "thorough examination" of a powered access platform, such as a low level access platform, and are legally required to be done every 6 months. All low level access platforms must comply with LOLER regulations to ensure they are in a safe condition before use.
JMS Powered Access ensure all low level access platforms are inspected, not only during LOLER inspections but also before they are delivered to the customer, as part of the Pre-Delivery Inspection (PDI), so our customers can hire with confidence.
