We are a fully IPAF licensed company, specialising in providing an efficient and highly cost-effective access platform service.
What Is A Cherry Picker?
A cherry picker is a mobile elevating work platform (MEWP) that enables people to reach high up spaces and difficult to reach areas. They use a hydraulic lifting system and have a bucket or surface at the end for people to stand on and access where they need to reach.
The large bucket is attached to a telescopic arm, which can be easily controlled. You can control the position and how high up the bucket goes. The machine was created as a solution to picking cherries from the top of trees in orchards. Previously, orchard workers would use ladders or pulleys, which wasn’t as effective or safe.
People would regularly fall from ladders or drop fruit – but cherry pickers offer an effective and safe solution. They didn’t have to settle for damaged or low-hanging fruit anymore – they could access the juiciest fruits that grew in the most sunlight.
What Are Cherry Pickers Used For?
Cherry pickers revolutionized the way that fruit was picked – but in 2021, it’s used for much more than picking fruit. They are used for countless tasks – from helping workers in construction to filming from higher or birds-eye angles.
Construction workers will often use cherry pickers instead of cranes, ladders and scaffolding. Scaffolding requires lots of time, effort and money to install – and still aren’t as safe as cherry pickers. Ladders are also unsafe – and not a practical solution in scaffolding and other industries as it’s difficult and unsafe to climb a ladder carrying equipment.
Cherry pickers enable construction workers to reach floors in which construction is in progress while holding the tools and equipment necessary to complete the construction work. Emergency and rescue services also frequently use cherry pickers – as the bucket size enables rescue workers to save multiple people at once.
This is ideal for accessing floors when there is a fire – often, staircases and lifts are unsafe, and ladders don’t allow rescue workers to carry multiple people down. Even though they are trained to do so, it’s still unsafe for rescue workers to carry even one person down a ladder – so cherry pickers are a great solution.
Cherry pickers are both flexible and mobile and can get you to a certain height within a couple of minutes.You can use a cherry picker to clean the outside of your home and business, as well as unblock gutters. Gutters can frequently get blocked with mould, leaves, and even birds’ nests – and a cherry picker enables you to unblock it quickly and easily.
The film industry also uses cherry pickers to film at a high angle and to get a birds-eye view. Cherry pickers can be controlled remotely, so you simply attach the camera and control the cherry picker to film the action at the best possible angle, whether you’re filming for movies, TV, or sporting events.
