Spider Crane Hire
Compact Access For Challenging Utility Pole Repairs
At TLF Utilities Ltd, we provide spider crane hire throughout the East Midlands and the rest of the UK. We understand that not all utility pole locations are straightforward. That’s why we offer a specialised Spider Lift Hire service (with operator), using our compact yet highly capable Hinowa Lightlift 15.70 spider lift.
Designed for tight and difficult-to-access spaces, our spider lift enables safe and efficient utility pole repairs in locations where traditional machinery isn’t feasible.
This service is ideal for pole installations, replacements and emergency repairs in areas such as narrow alleyways and garden paths, along canal and riverbanks, residential gardens, caravan parks and holiday resorts, rural or urban locations with limited vehicle access.
If you need work done in a space where standard access equipment can’t reach, our spider lift is the perfect solution.

Its compact dimensions – just 1.10m wide and under 2m high – mean it can pass through standard garden gates or doorways, while its powerful hydraulics allow safe lifting to a height of 15.40m with a 230kg capacity (enough for two operators and tools).

Why Choose Our Spider Lift Hire?
Industry-Leading Access Equipment
We invest in high-quality access solutions such as the Hinowa Lightlift 15.70 to make sure we can reach the most difficult pole locations safely and efficiently. Our spider lift allows us to perform complex installations and repairs with precision, even in confined spaces where traditional equipment can’t operate. By using advanced, compact machinery, we reduce disruption to properties and deliver faster, more accurate results.
Fully Certified & Experienced
Every spider crane hire comes with a qualified, experienced operator who is fully trained in working at height and operating access platforms. We don’t offer self-drive hire because we believe safety and expertise should never be compromised. Our team ensures that all lifting, setup, and safety checks are carried out to the highest standards, giving you total peace of mind from start to finish.
Fast Response Times
We know that time is often critical – especially in the case of damaged poles or emergency repairs. That’s why we pride ourselves on offering a fast and reliable response service. Whether you’re dealing with a storm-damaged pole, an urgent RTI situation, or a planned infrastructure upgrade, we aim to get to site quickly and complete the job efficiently without delay.
Minimal Disruption
Our spider lift is specifically chosen for its ability to access awkward or delicate environments without causing unnecessary damage. With a narrow footprint and low ground pressure, it can be deployed on lawns, through garden gates, along footpaths and beside waterways without harming surrounding surfaces. This makes it ideal for use in residential, rural and landscaped areas where preserving the environment is a priority.
Safe, Compliant Working At Height
Safety is at the heart of everything we do. All work carried out using our spider lift is compliant with the latest industry standards and health and safety regulations. Our operators perform full site assessments and follow strict procedures to ensure safe setup, operation and de-rigging. With TLF Utilities Ltd, you can trust that your project will be handled responsibly, safely and with professional care.
