Airports & Aviation Access Services

Airside-ready inspection, certification and servicing of access equipment for terminals, hangars and aprons, scheduled around airport operations and curfews.

Sector Overview

Access Built for Airports & Aviation

Airports and aviation facilities use elevated work platforms across terminals, hangars, aprons, lighting towers and airside infrastructure where security, airside access rules and continuous operations shape every job. Inspections are required because equipment often works around aircraft, high-value assets and the travelling public, so every boom, scissor and truck-mounted EWP must be certified and reliable before it operates airside or in a terminal. We inspect, test, certify, service and repair access equipment for airport operators, ground handlers and maintenance contractors against AS 2550 and AS 1418, with documented records that suit airside compliance and airport audit regimes. Typical equipment includes high-reach booms for hangar and aircraft-adjacent work, low-noise electric scissor lifts for terminal interiors and truck-mounted platforms for apron lighting and signage. Our engineering inspection process examines structure, hydraulics and control systems, coordinates non-destructive testing (NDT) on load-bearing welds and pins, and issues compliance certificates for each asset. Major inspections fall at 5-year or 10-year intervals depending on equipment class and standard. We manage whole fleets, reduce downtime through planned servicing and rapid response around airport curfews and operations, and provide national servicing capability — trusted across Australia at airports and aviation sites.

Challenges We Solve

Airside access and security

Technicians must work within airside permits, security clearances and escort requirements.

Continuous operations and curfews

Terminals and aprons run long hours, so servicing must fit narrow windows.

Work near aircraft and the public

High-value assets and passenger areas demand dependable, certified equipment.

Engineering inspection and certification to AS 2550 and AS 1418, including low-noise units for terminal interiors.
Coordinated non-destructive testing of load-bearing welds and pins, each asset issued its own documented compliance certificate.
Major inspections at 5-year or 10-year intervals depending on equipment class and standard, scheduled around airport operations and curfews.

FAQs

Airports & Aviation Questions

Common questions about EWP inspection, hire and servicing for airports & aviation operators.

Why are inspections important for airport EWPs?

Equipment often works around aircraft, high-value assets and the travelling public. Inspection and certification to AS 2550 and AS 1418 confirm each unit is safe and reliable before it operates airside or in a terminal.

Can your technicians work airside?

Yes. We work within airside permit, security-clearance and escort requirements and coordinate access so inspection and servicing can be carried out where the equipment is based.

Do you provide low-noise equipment support for terminals?

We inspect and service low-noise electric scissor lifts and platforms suited to terminal interiors, keeping them certified for work around passengers.

How often do major inspections apply?

Major inspections are carried out at 5-year or 10-year intervals depending on equipment class and standard. We track due dates so plant stays certified around continuous airport operations.

Is your documentation suitable for airport audits?

Every inspection, test and service is documented with reports, photographs and compliance certificates so your airside and airport audit records are complete.
