Orders have been placed for vertical masts, mast booms, articulated booms and electric and diesel scissor lifts with manufacturers Skyjack, Haulotte and Niftylift.

Among the orders are several Niftylift Heightrider HR12 bio energy boom lifts.

Since entering the access equipment hire business in 2012 from its Rochester headquarters, Sandhurst has now added the products to its rental depots in the southwest, midlands, northwest and northeast regions.

Operations director Steven Sutch said “We are delighted with the progress and growth we have achieved in the short time Sandhurst has been specialising in Access equipment. This latest round of orders alleviates our very high utilisation and demand from our rental centres. The orders have been placed with suppliers who provide Sandhurst with quality products and excellent after sales support. Sandhurst will extend coverage and double its fleet within the next 12 months.”
