Operations
Welcome to Rentit AG, your leading provider of innovative access solutions in Switzerland. Thanks to our many years of experience and a strong focus on quality and safety, we can offer you the right solution for even the most complex applications. Our façade lifts – also known as motorised suspended scaffolding – are a specialist area that only a few suppliers in Switzerland have mastered. Are you looking for a flexible solution for your project? Our façade lifts and motorised suspended scaffolding provide safe and efficient access to façades, service shafts and more – available throughout Switzerland.
Hire suspended platforms – flexible and safe with Altrex
Long-standing partnership with Altrex
We have been working with Altrex products for over 20 years and, since 2017, exclusively with Altrex products.
Bespoke solutions
In 80 per cent of cases, we can work with our standard materials. Should we require specialised solutions, we are also able to deliver bespoke solutions thanks to our close partnership with Altrex.
Certified system
Safety is always our top priority; in collaboration with SUVA, we have thoroughly tested the safety of the products and, since 2017, have also been able to provide a CE declaration for installed systems
Services
- Hire: Flexible and tailored to your project’s needs.
- Consultancy and planning: Our team of experts is on hand to support you from the initial consultation right through to the planning stage, to find the perfect solution for your requirements.
- Installation and maintenance: Professional installation and regular maintenance by our trained technicians guarantee trouble-free operation.
Modular façade lift – We have a wide range of solutions available for hire.
Double-deck platform
If you need to work at different heights at the same time, we also have double-deck platforms. This is often the only option, particularly when installing large façade elements.
Bespoke solutions – a façade lift tailored to your needs.
Custom lengths
There are some roofs where standard materials cannot be used. In such cases, we work with the customer to develop a bespoke solution. With a little lead time (approx. 3 months), we can manufacture cantilevers that either have a large overhang or a shorter length.
Special applications
The advantage of a motorised suspended scaffold is that it can be used in more than just a building façade. Thanks to its modular design, we can offer you a wide range of solutions. For example, we have already used our lifts in ventilation shafts, boiler rooms and on dam walls.
Supervision
In some cases, local conditions require safety measures that go beyond the standard requirements. If, for example, access from below is not possible, then solutions must be developed in collaboration with SUVA and safety officers to take account of the local conditions. We’ll help you carry out the project, even if we encounter difficulties.
Useful information about our façade lifts
Requirements for the use of standard materials:
- Space required on the roof: The booms have a centre-to-centre distance of 4.5m–5.5m; the greater the distance, the less counterweight we require.
- Reach: from the front support to the centre of the basket, we can choose either 0.9 m or 1.2 m.
- Access: Access must normally always be provided from below.
Technical specifications:
- We have various winches with capacities of 500, 600 or 800 kg
- Modular design. Maximum platform length: 21 metres
- High load capacity: Maximum load capacity: 1,180 kg (7-metre ELB configuration)
- Maximum number of people: 9 people (9-metre DLB configuration)
FAQ
There are no legal provisions requiring such training. However, we only permit trained staff to work on our premises.
This training covers, amongst other things, topics such as:
- Operating instructions
- Information on the permitted load capacity and the permitted number of people
- Basic safety information (e.g. wind, securing the working area, etc.)
- Emergency descent system
- Technical emergency service
There is indeed such a regulation for permanent installations; as this Machinery Directive also applies to temporary façade access systems, precautions must indeed be taken when working at great heights.
As a rule, the permissible wind speed is restricted in such cases. This means that work must be suspended even in light winds.
In such cases, operators are provided with an anemometer so that they can monitor the weather conditions.
Thanks to the modular design, there are countless possible combinations. We’d be happy to help you work through the options. The key factors are the space available on the roof, the overhang and the winch capacity.
To help with the calculations, we use a simple formula. If you’d like to try it out for yourself, we’ve provided a small Excel file here.
Actually, it’s not that simple. There are loads of terms that are used. Internally in the hire department, we always say ‘facade lift’. But whether you’d prefer to call it a rope access platform, a motorised suspended scaffold or, after all, a facade lift is up to you – we’ll be happy to help you either way :)
Motorised suspended platform – the most versatile work platform in Switzerland
The motorised suspended scaffold plays a very special role in our rental fleet. When no other piece of equipment is suitable, our façade lifts often provide the ideal alternative. For particularly high working heights, requirements for a large working platform or inaccessible areas, we offer a solution that no other competitor on the market can match. The modular design allows the façade lift to be configured in countless different ways. Safety is always our top priority, which is why our assembly process has been certified by SUVA.
