Lift rental in Raufoss

The industrial halls in Raufoss

The industrial park defines the town, and much of the demand for lifts here is indoors. That includes maintenance of lighting and ventilation, cable routing in the ceiling, sprinkler systems and installing new equipment when a production line is rebuilt. If you work in the industrial park, we have a separate page on lifts and machines for Raufoss Næringspark.

Inside a hall with people at work, it is important to have lifts that produce no exhaust and make no more noise than necessary. Our electric scissor lifts range from 7.5 to 12 metres. If you need to get over a machine or a conveyor, an articulating boom lift is better, because the arm can reach out over the obstacle.

Many halls also have overhead travelling cranes and hoists in the roof. Then you need to know where they run, and agree with operations that they stay still while you work.

Work on the outside of large buildings

On the outside of industrial buildings there are roofs, roof fans, chimneys and tall façades. If you need to get up to a roof much higher than a house, you will often need a boom lift of 22 or 28 metres.

For lifting materials on building sites we have rotating telehandlers and telehandlers. A rotating telehandler turns around and lifts pallets and roof sheets onto roofs and scaffolding without moving the machine.

For the greatest heights we have the ultra boom Roshow RST40E, which reaches 40 metres and runs entirely on electric power. That can count in its favour where there are requirements on emissions and noise on site. Talk to the person responsible for the site before the lift arrives, so you know where it can stand and which rules apply.

Remember that boom lifts are heavy machines. Tarmac and manhole covers can take a lot, but not everything. Ask someone who knows the area whether there are cables or tanks underground where the lift will stand.

The homes around the factories

Around Raufoss centre there are residential areas with detached and terraced houses. The jobs here are painting, replacing gutters and windows, pruning trees and fitting solar panels. A trailer lift of 10 to 13 metres is enough for most of these houses.

If you are wondering whether your car can tow it, read the guide on car and trailer lift. If it is your first time using a trailer lift, you get a full walk-through during instruction before you drive off.

The farms of Vestre Toten

Toten is known for flat, fertile fields, and out in the villages there are large farm buildings. Many barns and agricultural buildings are tall enough that an ordinary ladder will not reach. When the wall needs painting or the roof needs new sheets, a trailer lift of 16 or 18 metres is a common choice.

In farmyards with gravel or grass it is wise to put base plates under the outriggers, especially in spring when the ground is soft after the frost.

Towards Totenåsen the land gets hillier, and there are cabins and holiday homes there too. If the plot slopes or is far from a road, a self-levelling tracked lift is often better than a trailer.

Collection and delivery

From Raufoss to the main depot at Hovemovegen 33 in Lillehammer, you drive north past Gjøvik. The depot is open from 07 to 16 on weekdays. Many businesses in Raufoss choose to have the lift delivered, especially the heavy machines, and then we drive it with our own transport.

Instruction is included whether you collect or we deliver. If several employees will use lifts regularly, it may be worth looking at a lift course. Call +47 948 87 000.

When delivering inside an industrial area, it is wise to tell the gate or reception that the lift is coming and where it is to be delivered. Also tell us if protective equipment or a safety course is required to enter the area, so the driver knows in advance.
