Aerial work platform and construction machinery rental in Kladno
In Kladno, aerial work platforms and construction machinery are mostly needed in halls that look unremarkable from outside and are 12 to over 20 m high inside. The western edge of the Prague metropolitan area is one of the densest distribution and logistics locations in the Czech Republic; alongside it is metalworking with steel construction, supplier manufacturing and maintenance. Both shift the decisive parameter away from access towards usable height under the roof.
It is not the set-up area that sets the limit, but the hall height
On inner-city sites, space for the machine is the bottleneck. In the industrial zones around Kladno it is not: yards are spacious, docking areas are paved, access roads are designed for articulated lorries. What limits instead is the clear height between the racking or block storage and the underside of the roof trusses - and how much of it can be cleared during ongoing operations.
When you enquire, please therefore state three values: working height at the point, clear height under the roof structure and the width of the cleared area. For hall work on open floor space, electric scissor lifts with 6.30 to 33.00 m and 227 to 1,000 kg platform load are the standard solution: no exhaust fumes, gentle on floors, with a large platform area.
Rack aisle, sprinklers, light strip: maintenance under the roof
In high-bay warehouses, work takes place between the rack rows, not in front of them. Sprinkler pipes and heads, light strips, smoke detectors, data points, plus rack installation and repairs after impact damage - all in aisles whose width was determined by the stacker crane, not by the platform.
For this there are high-rack scissor lifts with 18.50 to 33.00 m and 450 to 1,000 kg platform load: narrow track, great lift height and enough payload for a fitter to take pipe sections, luminaires or rack components up in one lift instead of three. If the working point lies above occupied rack bays or conveyor systems, an articulating boom lift with 10.89 to 48.15 m brings the basket in from the side; the electric versions remain suitable for indoor use. In office and plant areas, mast lifts with 10.00 to 12.65 m are the lightest solution.
The rental fleet in figures
| Class | Working height | Basket capacity |
|---|---|---|
| Scissor lifts electric | 6.30 - 33.00 m | 227 - 1,000 kg |
| Scissor lifts diesel | 9.70 - 34.00 m | 363 - 1,134 kg |
| High-rack scissor lifts | 18.50 - 33.00 m | 450 - 1,000 kg |
| Articulating boom lifts | 10.89 - 48.15 m | 150 - 450 kg |
| Telescopic boom lifts | 14.00 - 56.90 m | 227 - 454 kg |
| Mast lifts | 10.00 - 12.65 m | 200 kg |
| Spider lifts | 13.00 - 39.50 m | 200 - 400 kg |
Dispatch from the surrounding area instead of the city centre
The location in Prague's suburban belt has a practical consequence: projects are almost always in commercial and industrial zones with their own access, their own gate and their own yard. Delivery by low-loader is straightforward, and permits for using public land are usually not required.
This allows a different structure for rental periods: whereas in the inner city every additional week on site costs money and coordination, here several work packages can be bundled at one location and completed one after another with a single machine. For the roof, parapet and hall facade from outside, telescopic boom lifts with 14.00 to 56.90 m are the class with the greatest reserve; on unpaved areas between the halls, spider lifts with 13.00 to 39.50 m are used.
Metalworking: platform load and permits in operation
The second strand in Kladno is metal and steel processing. Here the decisive parameter shifts from height to load capacity: two fitters with a welding machine, cutting torch, tools and spare parts realistically add up to 400 to 600 kg. Anyone who has ordered a platform with a rated load of 227 kg will then work in stages instead of in one go.
The strongest are diesel scissor lifts with 9.70 to 34.00 m and 363 to 1,134 kg - outdoors and in ventilated plant areas. In enclosed production areas, electric scissor lifts with up to 1,000 kg remain the permissible alternative with almost the same payload. On top of this come site-specific requirements: hot work permit, disabling of fire alarm systems, closure of crane runways while the platform is in use.
Telehandlers, excavators and forklifts for Kladno
Telehandlers distribute material where there is no crane: fixed models with 4.30 to 18.80 m lift height and 1.25 to 25 t load capacity, roto telehandlers with 15.42 to 38.90 m and a rotating superstructure. Excavators from 1.8 to 30 t handle site servicing, yard paving, utility installation and interior demolition during hall conversions. For material handling, forklifts from 3 to 16 t are available, including rough-terrain forklifts for unpaved storage areas.
Legal framework, inspections and documentation in the Czech Republic
The operation and use of the machine are governed by the law of the country of use. In the Czech Republic this is Government Regulation No. 378/2001 Coll., which has a dedicated annex for equipment used to lift loads and persons. Mobile elevating work platforms are inspected according to CSN EN 280; the legal framework is formed by the Labour Code (No. 262/2006 Coll.) and Act No. 309/2006 Coll. Our part: a machine with a valid inspection record, CE documentation and operating manual. Your part: risk assessment, operator instruction and the pre-start check.
In logistics facilities, the site rules of the operator or tenant almost always apply as well - access rules, working time windows outside order picking, requirements on drive type and tyres. Check these points before the machines are scheduled.
Transport to Kladno
Kladno is around 250 km from our base in Passau, mostly by motorway. Prague is a good 25 km to the east, so projects in the western surroundings can be combined in one run.
Because the yards are adequately sized, delivery is rarely the problem - the time window, however, is: in distribution centres, the quiet period is often not in the morning. Please state the preferred delivery window when ordering. For rental periods of several months, long-term rental rates apply.
