Skyjack

A Skyjack lift is a type of aerial work platform designed to safely elevate workers and equipment for tasks at height. Skyjack manufactures various models, including scissor lifts, boom lifts, and vertical mast lifts, known for their reliability, simplicity, and ease of maintenance. These lifts are widely used in construction, maintenance, and industrial applications.

Skyjack was founded in 1985, making it a trusted name in the aerial lift industry for over 40 years. Headquartered in Guelph, Ontario, Canada, Skyjack has built a reputation for producing durable and user-friendly lifting equipment
