When mounted inside the side door of a delivery vehicle the Load Lift offers an excellent alternative for applications where a tail-lift would be unsafe or impractical, such as congested urban areas or where parking spaces are too short for convenient access to the rear doors. Deliveries can be made directly to the kerbside to reduce dramatically the space required to park and enter the vehicle. Side access also enables quicker access to items and greater selectivity for improved productivity and flexible route scheduling. It also ensures better load distribution in the centre of the payload area to reduce the risk of rear axle overloading. More convenient access to the vehicle also reduces time spent at the kerbside which helps to promote better relationships with the police and traffic wardens.

The Load Lift incorporates self-contained hydraulic systems for smooth, precise and assured operation. It is supplied with remote and static controls, battery isolation switch, thermal cut-out protection and hydraulic overload protection as standard to promote safety. The standard steel platform is 800 x 680mm with different sizes and a choice of aluminium or stainless steel also available so that the Load Lift can be configured for the precise requirements of the specific application. Other options include a choice of 12V or 24V supply, radio remote control and special attachments for handling tyres and wheels.
