Overview of the Genie GR-12

The Genie GR-12 is a lightweight, electric-powered vertical mast lift that enables safe and efficient access to low-level heights in confined indoor spaces. Its compact size and tight turning radius allow operators to manoeuvre with ease in narrow corridors and work areas. With a 5.45 m working height, this Runabout lift is ideal for routine maintenance, stock picking, electrical fitting and installation jobs in commercial and industrial settings where floor space is at a premium.

Key Features of the Genie GR-12

Equipped with a 227 kg platform capacity, the GR-12 allows operators to carry tools and materials at height without compromising stability. The zero inside turning radius and front-wheel drive improve handling in restricted environments, while its lightweight chassis helps minimise floor loading. Full height drive capabilities reduce downtime during repositioning, and the intuitive Smart Link controls ensure precise, safe operation. A standard saloon-style entry gate and solid non-marking tyres complete the package for optimal performance indoors.
