Rent telescopic boom lifts in Duesseldorf: 14 to 56.90 m for every trade
For work on Duesseldorf facades, roofs, halls and plants, you can rent telescopic boom lifts from us with 14.00 to 56.90 m working height and up to 27.43 m horizontal outreach. Which of the 26 models fits is decided in Duesseldorf above all by the trade: a glazing team in the Media Harbour needs outreach and platform capacity, a roofer in Oberkassel a narrow, light machine and an exhibition stand builder an electric drive for the hall.
The following sections therefore sort our rental fleet by task and name what you should clarify on site. Delivery is from our location in Passau.
Rent telescopic boom lifts in Duesseldorf: the right model for each trade
The table assigns our rental fleet to the five trades that most frequently work with telescopic boom lifts in Duesseldorf. All values are taken from the machines' data sheets.
| Trade | Typical task in Duesseldorf | Suitable models (working height) | What matters |
|---|---|---|---|
| Roof and gutter | old buildings in Oberkassel, Pempelfort and Flingern | Haulotte H14TX (14.00 m), Genie S-45 (15.72 m), Genie S-65 (21.80 m) | low weight, small set-up area |
| Facade and glass | office buildings in the Media Harbour, on Koenigsallee and in Seestern | Genie S-85XC (27.91 m), Genie SX-135XC (43.15 m), JLG 1350SJP (43.30 m) | outreach, platform capacity up to 454 kg |
| Interior installation | exhibition halls, airport, production and warehouse halls | Zoomlion ZT18JE-Li (20.60 m), ZT21JE-Li (22.95 m), ZT26JE (28.70 m), Genie S-60 FE (20.60 m) | electric or hybrid drive, floor load |
| Industry and maintenance | plants in Holthausen and Reisholz, port | Manitou 280 TJ (27.73 m), Genie S-105 (34.00 m), Genie S-125 (40.15 m) | diesel drive, plant approval |
| Special heights | towers, chimneys, very high facades | Genie SX-150 (48.33 m), Genie SX-180 (56.90 m) | access and set-up position for 22.7 to 24.9 t |
If your task lies between two rows, tell us the working height, distance to the wall and platform load. We will then compare the values with the reach diagrams.
Facade and glass: telescopic boom lifts with outreach for the Media Harbour and office towers
On facades the horizontal outreach is decisive, not the pure working height. In front of many office buildings there are canopies, green strips, cycle paths or, in the Media Harbour, the harbour basin. This moves the set-up position several metres away from the wall.
Horizontal outreach up to 27.43 m bridges the distance to the wall
The Genie SX-135XC reaches 43.15 m working height and 27.43 m outreach, the JLG 1350SJP 43.30 m and 25.03 m. For medium heights up to around 28 m the Genie S-85XC with 22.71 m outreach is often sufficient. For the curved facades at Neuer Zollhof or on glass surfaces with recesses, it is worth marking the set-up position and work points on the plan in advance. We then check the reach diagram for exactly these points.
Platform capacity up to 454 kg for glass elements and tools
For glass work, what counts is how much weight the platform takes. The S-85XC and the SX-135XC carry 454 kg, the 1350SJP 450 kg. Models with 227 kg such as the Genie S-105 are more suitable for inspection and light maintenance. The platform load includes persons, tools and material together. Heavy glass elements are better lifted with a mini crane in Duesseldorf or another lifting device.
Plan for wind on the Rhine and between high-rises
On the Rhine bank and between the office towers the wind picks up noticeably. For each telescopic boom lift the manufacturer specifies a permissible wind speed, which you will find in the operating manual. Plan work at great height with a buffer and stop as soon as the limit is reached.
Roof and old buildings: telescopic boom lifts for the Altstadt, Carlstadt and Oberkassel
In the densely built districts the lift usually stands on the street. Narrow dimensions, a low operating weight and a permit for the set-up position count here.
Light models from 5,900 kg for pavements and inner courtyards
The Haulotte H14TX weighs 5,900 kg and reaches 14.00 m, the Genie S-45 weighs 7,005 kg at 15.72 m. For gutters, dormers and cornices on lower old buildings in Pempelfort, Flingern or Oberkassel, this class is often sufficient. For higher eaves or a roof overhang beyond a front garden, the Genie S-65 with 21.80 m working height and 17.10 m outreach is an option.
Apply to the city for special use and no-stopping zones
If the lift stands on a pavement or carriageway, you usually need a special use permit or a traffic order from the state capital Duesseldorf. Apply early, because in the Altstadt, on Koenigsallee and in the Carlstadt the areas are heavily occupied by delivery traffic, outdoor dining and events. For listed buildings, also coordinate the set-up and work area with the lower heritage authority.
Observe the Rheinbahn overhead lines
Many streets in the city centre, in Bilk and in Oberkassel carry Rheinbahn tram lines. Agree work near the overhead line with Rheinbahn in advance. It decides on shutdown, safety clearance and supervision.
Trade fair, airport and halls: electric telescopic boom lifts for interior installations
In closed halls, exhaust fumes and noise are disruptive. For these jobs we have three telescopic boom lifts with electric drive and one model with hybrid drive.
Electric drive: no exhaust fumes on site
The Zoomlion ZT18JE-Li (20.60 m), ZT21JE-Li (22.95 m) and ZT26JE (28.70 m) work electrically and therefore produce no local emissions during operation. The Genie S-60 FE reaches 20.60 m and has a hybrid drive, so it suits jobs that alternate between hall and outdoor area. Typical tasks are trusses, lighting and ceiling installations in exhibition stand construction, maintenance in terminals and hangars at the airport, and cables and sprinklers in production and warehouse halls.
Clarify approval and floor load with the operator
At the exhibition grounds in Stockum, the organisers and the trade fair company decide which machines may enter the halls during set-up and dismantling. At the airport, the operator's access and security rules also apply. Also clarify the floor load: the electric models weigh between 8,600 kg (ZT18JE-Li) and 17,600 kg (ZT26JE), the S-60 FE 8,051 kg. Hall floors, ramps and lifts must be able to take this weight and the wheel loads.
Industry and port: diesel telescopic boom lifts up to 56.90 m
Outdoors and on large plant areas you work with diesel drive. 22 of our 26 telescopic boom lifts run on diesel.
Plants in the south: plant approval before use
In the industrial areas of Holthausen and Reisholz, the plant sites have their own rules: registration, induction, permits and in some areas Ex zones in which combustion engines may only run with approval. Tell us these requirements with your request. For maintenance on pipe bridges, silos and hall roofs, the Manitou 280 TJ (27.73 m, 350 kg platform capacity), the Genie S-105 (34.00 m) and the Genie S-125 (40.15 m) are suitable. In the port, agree set-up positions on quay edges and storage areas with the port operator and the tenants of the areas.
Above 44 m: Genie SX-150 and SX-180
For towers, chimneys and very high facades, the Genie SX-150 with 48.33 m and the SX-180 with 56.90 m working height are available. Both carry 340 kg in the platform and weigh 22,657 and 24,856 kg respectively. For these machines, check access, turning radii and the load-bearing capacity of the set-up position before the delivery date.
Ground on the Rhine: telescopic boom lifts on Rhine meadows and in parks
Rhine meadows, parks and unpaved areas can only carry heavy machines to a limited extent. The operating weight of our telescopic boom lifts ranges from 5,900 kg to 24,856 kg.
Flood area: check ground and water level
The Rhine meadows in Oberkassel and Loerick lie in the Rhine flood area. After flooding or prolonged rain the ground is soft. Plan light models there, reinforce access routes with plates and follow the Rhine water level if the job lasts several days. Clarify access and use of the area with the owner or the event organiser.
Parks and trees: outreach instead of access
In the Hofgarten, the Nordpark or at Benrath Palace the lift is best kept on the paved path. With outreach over beds and lawns you reach tree crowns and facades without driving on the area. Typical models for this are the Genie S-65 with 17.10 m and the S-85XC with 22.71 m outreach. For work in public green spaces, obtain the consent of the parks department or the owner.
Transport from Passau: telescopic boom lifts for Duesseldorf and the surrounding area
We deliver from our location in Passau. It is around 680 km to Duesseldorf, mainly via the A3. We agree the delivery date and delivery with you. For large models we recommend an early request, because the transport requires more planning.
Tell us the delivery address, access, unloading point and a contact person on site. We also deliver telescopic boom lifts to the surrounding area, for example Neuss, Ratingen, Meerbusch, Erkrath or Hilden, as well as to Duisburg, Krefeld, Wuppertal and Cologne.
Duties when using telescopic boom lifts in Duesseldorf
As the employer you are responsible for safe operation. Two points belong before every job.
Trained operators under DGUV Principle 308-008
Telescopic boom lifts may only be operated by persons who are trained and authorised in writing by the company. Training follows DGUV Principle 308-008; on-site instruction is required by section 12 of the Occupational Safety and Health Act (ArbSchG) and section 12 of the Industrial Safety Regulation (BetrSichV). We put you in touch with a certified training provider free of charge and without obligation: training via certified partners.
Risk assessment under section 3 BetrSichV
Before use you assess the hazards: ground, wind, traffic, overhead lines and persons in the work area. This determines barriers, rescue plan and, if necessary, a safety lookout. In the platform the operators wear a harness attached to the lift's anchor point.
