Rent Telescopic Boom Lifts in Dortmund

You can rent telescopic boom lifts for Dortmund from Luibl Rental from 26 models with 14.00 to 56.90 m working height and up to 27.43 m horizontal outreach. Dortmund builds between industrial monuments, logistics halls, the port and a city centre from the post-war period, and beneath some areas in the south lie old mine workings. Which model fits therefore depends less on the district than on the structure you are working on and the ground the lift stands on. This page is structured by these two points. We deliver the telescopic boom lift from our location in Passau; you will find an overview of all construction machinery for the city on the page construction machinery rental in Dortmund.

The table assigns each of the 26 models to exactly one type of structure. Working height and drive are decisive; the values come from the data sheets of our telescopic boom lifts.

The assignment is a starting point. If the lift stands far from the building because extensions, pipelines or green areas lie in between, choose one class higher: the required working height grows with the horizontal outreach.

Zeche Zollern in Boevinghausen, the Kokerei Hansa coking plant in Huckarde, the blast furnace on Phoenix West in Hoerde and the Dortmunder U show how much industrial history stands in the cityscape. On such structures work includes painting, glazing, refurbishment and lighting, and almost always something lies between the set-up position and the work position.

Bridge pipe racks, extensions and tracks with the boom

A telescopic boom lift extends its boom in a straight line and thus reaches points far away from the chassis. The largest horizontal outreach in the fleet belongs to the Genie SX-135XC with 27.43 m at 43.15 m working height. For headframes, chimneys and high hall gables, the Genie SX-180 reaches up to 56.90 m working height. If material and two people are to go into the platform, check the platform capacity: depending on the model it is between 227 and 454 kg.

Owner and heritage authority agree the job in advance

Many of these sites are listed and belong to foundations, museums or the city. The owner decides where the lift may stand, which areas are load-bearing and when work can take place. For work on a monument, the lower heritage authority of the city of Dortmund is involved. Clarify both before you choose the model, because a set-up position further away requires more outreach.

Large halls stand around the motorway junctions in the east and south of the city, at the port and in the business parks. Here the location decides the drive.

In the hall: electric or hybrid

Indoors you work with the electric models Zoomlion ZT21JE-Li (22.95 m), ZT18JE-Li (20.60 m) and ZT26JE (28.70 m). They produce no local emissions during operation, so no exhaust fumes arise in the hall. The Genie S-60 FE with 20.60 m works in hybrid mode and can alternate between hall and yard. Plan a charging point with a power supply and have the load-bearing capacity of the hall floor checked: the ZT26JE weighs 17,600 kg, the ZT18JE-Li 8,600 kg.

In the yard and on the quay: diesel with reserve

For facades, roof edges and canopies of logistics halls, the diesel models between 21.74 and 27.91 m working height are suitable. On gravel and paving, set the lift up on level, compacted ground. At Dortmund port, the port operator's rules apply to access, quay edges and storage areas. Register the job there with the dimensions and weight of the lift.

Inside the Wallring ring road there are densely built shopping streets such as Westenhellweg and Ostenhellweg, plus the Reinoldikirche, Marienkirche and Petrikirche churches. The city centre was largely rebuilt after the Second World War; many facades date from the 1950s and 1960s and are being refurbished or insulated today.

Pavement, pedestrian zone, carriageway: the city of Dortmund decides

If the lift stands on a pavement, carriageway or in the pedestrian zone, you need a special use permit and usually a traffic order from the city of Dortmund. Allow lead time and state the dimensions, weight and working period of the lift in the application. Vehicles are often only allowed in pedestrian zones at fixed times, which also affects delivery and collection of the lift.

Small lift or large outreach

For three to four storeys, the Haulotte H14TX with 14.00 m working height, 10.30 m outreach and 5,900 kg weight is sufficient. For church towers and high gables, place a large model at the edge of a square and bridge the rest with the boom. For work on the churches, the parish and the heritage authority must be involved.

Our telescopic boom lifts weigh between 5,900 kg (Haulotte H14TX) and 24,856 kg (Genie SX-180). The ground carries this weight through a few contact points, which is why it belongs in every job plan in Dortmund.

Shallow mining in the south

In the south of the city, for example in the Ruhr valley, in Syburg and parts of Hoerde, coal was partly mined close to the surface. If there are indications of old shafts or cavities on the property, this belongs in the risk assessment. Information on known mining areas is provided by the mining authority at the Arnsberg district government (Bezirksregierung Arnsberg).

Backfilled industrial sites

Many building plots lie on former colliery and steelworks sites, for example around Lake Phoenix, which was created on the Phoenix-Ost site. Backfilled soils are not equally load-bearing everywhere. Reinforce access routes and set-up positions with temporary site roads or load distribution plates, and reassess the area after heavy rain.

1. Request: You state the working height, horizontal distance to the work position, persons and material in the platform, ground and rental period.

2. Model proposal: We check the reach diagram and propose a model. If an articulating boom lift reaches better over an obstacle, we will tell you.

3. Transport: From our location in Passau it is around 650 km to Dortmund, mainly via the A3 and the A45. Depending on the model, the transport requires a permit, so we recommend booking early. Delivery is to your site in Dortmund or the surrounding area, for example Luenen, Schwerte, Witten, Castrop-Rauxel or Unna.

4. Handover and collection: At handover we familiarise your staff with the specific machine. After the job we collect the lift again.

A telescopic boom lift may only be operated by persons who are trained, instructed and authorised in writing by the employer to do so. Training follows DGUV Principle 308-008. Instruction and authorisation are required by section 12 of the Occupational Safety and Health Act (ArbSchG) and section 12 of the Industrial Safety Regulation (BetrSichV).

Risk assessment before use

Before the first use, you prepare a risk assessment under section 3 of the Industrial Safety Regulation. It covers the set-up position and ground, wind, falls, crushing points, traffic and rescue from the platform. On plant sites, at the port and on monuments, the operator's rules apply in addition.

Training via certified partners

If your staff lack training, we put you in touch with a certified training provider through our training via certified partners free of charge and without obligation.

Are you planning work on an industrial monument, a hall, at the port or on a facade in the city centre? Tell us the structure, working height, outreach and ground, and we will suggest the right model. For lifting work in confined spaces, you will also find a mini crane in Dortmund.
