Mobile Elevated Work Platforms (MEWP’s), or Cherry Pickers as they are more widely known, are specialist machines used in a wide range of applications. They provide access for works conducted at heights, and with ever changing health & safety legislation in the work environment, it is more important than ever before to carry out these tasks with the correct equipment. MEWP’s are safer than a ladder and less intrusive and less costly than scaffolding.

​

Vertically Challenged is a MEWP access company with a CTE170 Traccess,17-metre narrow-tracked spider platform. It has a 7 meter out-reach and a 200kg basket capacity with 4 pressurised support legs which have a footprint of 3-meters. Driven on rubber tank style tracks and at only 80-cm wide, 2-meters high and 4.25-meters long the CTE 170 can access some of the more challenging areas, including narrow doors & gateways, making it ideal for both domestic and commercial use. It can be towed on a trailer for easy transporting and delivery.

We have a number of years of experience operating various types of MEWP’s at different working heights. We are fully licensed and insured and members of IPAF the International Powered Access Federation.
