Safe, Efficient and Professional High-Access Painting
Not every painting job can be done with a ladder. When walls stretch high into the air, or ceilings sit well above head height, the safest way to get the job done right is with a scissor lift. At Painters Link, we provide professional scissor lift painting services across Sydney and beyond. Our team is fully trained, insured, and licensed to operate elevated work platforms (EWPs), making sure your project is completed with safety, precision, and efficiency.
Whether it’s an industrial warehouse, a commercial building, a strata block, or a retail fit-out, scissor lifts allow our painters to reach tough spots quickly without compromising quality.
Why Choose Scissor Lift Painting?
-
Ever wondered why so many commercial and industrial sites rely on scissor lifts?
-
Here’s the simple truth: painting at height isn’t just about reaching tricky spots, it’s about doing it safely, quickly, and with quality that lasts.
-
Safety First ; Ladders are risky and scaffolding takes time. Scissor lifts provide a stable platform for painters to work securely at heights of up to 14 metres.
-
Fast Setup ; No days wasted erecting scaffolding. The lift rolls in, goes up, and we get painting straight away.
-
Cost-Effective ; Because scissor lifts cut down setup time, your overall project costs less.
Steady Finish ; Working from a stable base means straighter lines, cleaner edges, and better paint coverage.
-
Versatility ; Indoor or outdoor, smooth floors or rough terrain, there’s a scissor lift to match.
If you’ve got ceilings, beams, or high walls that need a coat of paint, scissor lifts are the go-to solution.
Where Scissor Lift Painting Works Best
Our scissor lift painters in Sydney work on a wide variety of jobs. Here are some of the most common settings where scissor lifts make the difference:
Warehouses & Factories
Industrial spaces often come with high steel beams, rafters, and massive wall surfaces. Using scissor lifts, our painters can cover every square metre efficiently, even in tight aisles or between racking systems.
Shopping Centres
Retail fit-outs are all about speed and presentation. With scissor lifts, we can work overnight to complete ceiling and wall painting before your shop opens its doors.
Strata & Residential Blocks
Apartment foyers, stairwells, and hallways usually have tall ceilings that are difficult to access with ladders. Scissor lift painting lets us reach these areas with minimal disruption to residents.
Commercial Offices
High feature walls, suspended ceilings, and atriums are no problem with a scissor lift. It means your office can get a facelift without long delays.
Schools, Gyms, and Sports Halls
Large indoor spaces often need paint that’s durable and fresh. A scissor lift makes it possible to cover every wall and ceiling safely.

Scissor Lift Painting Process
Safety and Compliance
Working at height is no place for shortcuts. Every one of our scissor lift painters holds:
- EWP (Elevated Work Platform) licences
- White Cards (construction site safety)
- Working at Heights training
- Up-to-date insurance and public liability cover
We also perform site-specific risk assessments and follow strict WHS procedures. This isn’t just about ticking boxes—it’s about keeping everyone safe while delivering a professional finish.
The Difference Between Scissor Lifts and Boom Lifts
Some people ask us: “Why use a scissor lift instead of a boom lift?”
The answer depends on the project.
- Scissor lifts go straight up and down. They’re stable, wide, and perfect for flat surfaces indoors or outdoors.
- Boom lifts can extend over obstacles and reach awkward angles, making them great for tall exteriors or uneven terrain.
At Painters Link, we use both, depending on the site. If a scissor lift works best, you’ll save money and time compared to a boom lift.
