Floor loading on rubber castors does not exceed standard atrium / commercial building floor specifications.

How it compares to alternatives in the 2–6 metre band
For the working-height tier this Safelift PA50 occupies, the buyer's choice is typically between three options: this Safelift configuration, a comparable scissor lift, or a one-person mobile tower. The technical comparison is in Pillar lift, scissor lift, or ladder for indoor work at height.
The decision usually comes down to (a) reposition frequency during the work and (b) doorway / elevator constraints in the facility. Mast lifts win when both factors weigh against scissor lifts.
