Based in Brunswick Village near Gateshead in the North East, Warren Access specialises in truck and van mounted access equipment. Formed 15 years ago by Derek Warren, the company has expanded into a family affair, with son Graeme and wife Michelle joining in 2005 to take over with Derek approaching retirement.
The new Multitel MX270 is the third truck mount in the fleet which also includes 18 van mounts. Warren’s 13.5 metre and 17 metre trucks are fitted to 6.5 and 7.5 tonne chassis and are continually out on hire with local councils, CCTV installation and maintenance, street lighting and security.
“We went to a few equipment shows looking for a new lift with up to 26 metres working height, which would cope with all the types of jobs we do and stop us having to cross-hire bigger machines,” says Graeme Warren. “There were a few possibilities and we looked seriously at CTE, but we thought the Multitel was better in all aspects.
The MX270 gives us an additional 10 metres height and about four metres more outreach than our 17 metre lift. We also liked the fact that it sets up low off the ground, has auto teleback before the main boom retracts, 90 degree basket rotation both ways and enough cage capacity for two operators and tools.”
“There are not too many competitors in the North East and this new platform will give us the capability to carry out work on many more projects.”
