Choosing the right boom lift depends on your specific job requirements, work environment, and safety needs. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you choose the most suitable boom lift for your project:

---

1. Determine the Required Working Height

• Measure the maximum height your workers need to reach.

• Add a safety margin (typically a few feet) to ensure comfortable access.

• Example: If you need to reach a 50-foot ceiling, a lift with a working height of 55–60 feet is ideal.

2. Decide Between Articulating vs. Telescopic Boom Lifts

Articulating Boom Lifts (Knuckle Booms)

• Best for tight spaces or when you need to go up and over obstacles.

• Great for indoor or complex structures, maintenance, and repair work.

Telescopic Boom Lifts (Straight Booms)

• Best for long, straight reach and outdoor work.

• Ideal for construction, heavy-duty jobs, or accessing rooftops and towers.
