20ft GENIE GR20 VERTICAL MANLIFT

The Genie GR-20 is a battery-powered runabout vertical manlift designed for indoor maintenance and installation work at height. With a platform height of 6.07 m (20 ft) and a working height of 8.07 m (26.5 ft), it provides a compact, zero-emission solution for tasks that don't require the outreach of a boom lift. Rated to carry 159 kg, it accommodates one operator with tools and equipment. The electric drive system produces no fumes and leaves no marks on finished floors, making it well suited to warehouses, manufacturing facilities, and retail fit-outs.

The GR-20 stands apart from scissor lifts in its class through its exceptionally narrow footprint — the unit can be pushed through standard doorways and manoeuvred in congested aisles without disassembly. Unlike powered scissor lifts, the GR-20 is a push-around machine: no drive controls, just wheel locks and a simple lift mechanism, which means operators require minimal familiarisation and the machine is fast to reposition between tasks. The lightweight aluminium mast keeps the unit easy to transport in a standard van or ute.

In the Geelong region, the GR-20 is frequently hired for light commercial fitouts, warehouse racking installation, HVAC servicing, and facility maintenance where access must not damage existing flooring or where space is too constrained for a full scissor lift.
