SPIDER LIFT MANUFACTURER
The original spider lift. German engineering since 1977.
Teupen invented the tracked spider lift category. The LEO series remains the benchmark for compact access, with models from 15m to 50m working height. Narrow widths, low ground pressure, and articulating booms make LEO the go-to choice for heritage buildings, tight urban sites, and sensitive environments.
From 15m to 50m working height. Each model designed for specific access challenges.

The LEO series defined what a spider lift should be. Here's what makes them different.
The LEO 15GT stows to just 0.75m wide. Most models are under 1 metre. That means access through standard doorways, Victorian side passages, and estate gatehouses without modifications.
Tracked tracks spread the load. Ground pressure as low as 0.35 bar on some models. Protects lawns, gravel drives, historic floors, and sensitive surfaces.
Up-and-over capability reaches over obstacles and into awkward positions. Negative reach on larger models allows underslung working for bridge inspection.
Diesel, petrol, electric, propane, or hybrid. Switch between power sources for indoor and outdoor work without changing machines.
Where Teupen LEO spider lifts excel.
Low ground pressure and narrow width make LEO series ideal for historic sites with sensitive floors and tight archways.
Electric power options and compact dimensions work in occupied retail spaces without disruption.
Tracked tracks protect lawns and gravel drives. Narrow stowed width fits through estate gatehouses.
Propane and electric power for indoor work. Articulating booms reach over pews and choir stalls.
Stowed widths under 1 metre access through Victorian side passages and city courtyards.
Negative reach capability allows underslung working positions for bridge soffit access.
