It still weighs 2,531 lb, so check the elevator rating. If two people need to work together, a 19 ft scissor lift holds 500 lb. Compare lifts on our scissor lift rental in NYC page.

GR-20 rental questions
How many people can use the GR-20?
One. The platform holds 350 lb, which is one worker and tools.
Will it fit in an elevator?
It often fits in a freight elevator because it is only 4 ft 5 in long. It weighs 2,531 lb, so send us the elevator capacity first.
GR-20 or a 19 ft scissor lift?
The GR-20 is shorter and turns tighter, so it is better in small rooms. The 19 ft GS-1930 scissor lift carries two people and more material.
Can I use it outside?
It is built for indoor floors. For outdoor work, ask us about a rough terrain lift.
What powers the GR-20?
Four 6 V, 225 Ah batteries make a 24 V system, and an automatic 19 amp charger is built in. Plug it in overnight so it is ready the next day.
