Access Cages / Man Baskets

Lifting people is different

Raising people by crane or forklift is a last resort, permitted only where there is no safer means of access. It requires a purpose-built and certified cage, a documented plan and more frequent examination than equipment that only lifts loads.

Choosing a cage

Match the cage to the machine and the task — crane-suspended cages differ from fork-mounted platforms in how they attach and what they are rated for. Occupancy limits are stated and must not be exceeded.

Common questions
Can I lift people in a cage on a forklift?

Only in a purpose-built, certified platform, where no safer means of access exists, and with a documented plan. Improvised arrangements are not permitted.

How often must a man basket be examined?

More frequently than equipment that only lifts loads. Check current requirements for equipment used to lift people and keep certification with the cage.

Which brands do you stock for Access Cages / Man Baskets?
