Spotlight on… DeskGliders
JMS Powered Access, one of the leading access hire specialists in the UK has introduced DeskGliders into its hire fleet.
The DeskGlider is a safe, above desk platform. It has been developed to solve an industry wide issue of how to work above desks, tables and workbenches and many more, safely and efficiently.
Since the introduction of the Work At Height regulations in 2005 there have been many attempts to provide a replacement for step ladders in the work place. All types of access platforms that never existed pre 2005 have been introduced to the market.

5 Reasons to Hire the DeskGlider
Easy to transport
Weighing just 90kg, the access platform is lightweight and compact, so can be quickly and easily transported to where it is needed.
Swivel castors – The four-point swivel castors give sideways movement, a benefit for getting through crowded areas.
Fits through doorways – The compact platform fits effortlessly through single doors.
Fits into lifts – The DeskGlider’s small working footprint makes it ideal for working in corridors and confined spaces.
No Battery
No downtime to charge, zero emissions makes it eco-friendly.
Convenience
With the DeskGlider there is no need to clear desks, or rearrange computer wires because it is designed to work over desks with ease, allowing the operator to easily access assets like lights, air conditioning units and alarms. Not only that but it can also be used to work on tractors, coaches, busses and many more.
Versatile
The DeskGlider can also be used as a free standing access tower making it a highly versatile and compact dual-purpose work platform for a variety of work at height tasks.
Safety
The DeskGlider access platform is a safe option for low level access, greatly reducing the risk of falls from height. As it works over desks and other obstructions, it is safer than ladder systems, reducing the risk of injury from operatives trying to lean across or stood on desk chairs.
