About Horizon Platforms | Hire | Sales | Training
Written by the company
In our role as a leading powered access rental solutions provider, Horizon Platforms delivers exceptional service so that you can complete your jobs on time and safely, anytime and anywhere across the UK.

About Us
Founded in 2008, Horizon have quickly gained a name for delivering high levels of customer satisfaction through our rapid response to customer needs. Our business was born out of recognition that there is much more to providing platforms for hire than moving pieces of machinery around. Since that very first day, Horizon has prided itself on providing rapid, reliable powered access solutions.
Recently we became an employee owned business, testament to the fact our team's aim is to always delight our customers. So whenever you speak to us, you are talking directly to our co-owners.
Why should consider us for you next hire?
- National Delivery through our own pristine fleet or one of our trusted partners
- Access to over 16,000 platforms, ensuring we'll have the right machine for you
- Same day, next day delivery. On core kit, platforms can be delivered as quickly as 4 hours if needed
- We don't like to brag but we hold ISO 9001, 14001 and 45001, IPAF Rental+ Gold and Safe Contractor. Excellence delivered as standard, always.
- Our Trustpilot score remains Excellent, meaning we dont just talk a good game!
- We can assist with long-term hire or purchases of powered access equipment whatever your needs.
- Our team of expert in-house and partner trainers can get your team through IPAF, PASMA or construction related courses at our training centre in Wakefield or on sites convenient for you nationally.
