Bucket Trucks – Sign, lighting and traffic
Versalift in Sign, Lighting and Traffic
Bucket trucks are important to those organizations that maintain lighting, signage and traffic signals. These organizations range from private to municipal, and responsibilities and job requirements change dramatically from day to day. Because lighting, signage and traffic signals are almost exclusively overhead, the bucket trucks that maintain them can be found throughout big cities and small towns, in bedroom communities and business districts. Bucket trucks are perhaps the most important tools for making sure that the men and women who maintain them can do their jobs effectively and efficiently. More than 30 years ago, Versalift invented the Articulated Telescopic Bucket Truck, which has become a popular tool for traffic signal maintenance, and it has continued to deliver the safest, most reliable and highest quality bucket trucks to its customers in the light, sign and traffic signal industry.
With a family of distribution, parts and service centers, Versalift is dedicated to helping our customers in the light, sign and traffic maintenance industry to keep their trucks on the road. Versalift has earned its strong reputation for service and quality.
Versalift supports hundreds of light, sign and traffic maintenance fleets around the world. Whenever you are working with electrical power, it is fundamentally important that you are confident in your equipment, and this is doubly true when you aren’t sure what your tasks will be and at what heights your linemen will need to be working. If you are responsible for maintaining lights and lighted signs and signals, Versalift’s high-quality, safe and reliable catalog of bucket trucks is essential to your future success.
The Versalift Fleet of Bucket Trucks for Lighting, Signage and Signal Maintenance.
Versalift bucket trucks come in a vast variety of working heights, from 29’ to 219’, and they can be customized in countless ways. All Versalift Trucks come with ElectroGuard to protect those men on the ground from harm, and many of them also come with TruGuard, our patented upper control isolation system. In the case that TruGuard doesn’t come as a standard feature, almost all of our Bucket Trucks can be customized with TruGuard. Truguard technology allows hydraulic hoses to feed fluid through an insulation gap, giving you access to all controls and tool ports in the bucket itself while remaining dielectrically secure. While this option may not be required on every bucket truck in a light and sign fleet, it will likely be necessary on those trucks that are used to maintain electrically powered signage. At Versalift, all of our products are designed to exceed the dielectric testing of ANSI and OSHA. We work directly with your fleet managers to design custom protection solutions that provide the tools and configurations to which they are accustomed.
Versalift Trucks and your team
The quality of your Versalift bucket truck reflects our commitment to keeping our Light, Sign and Signal Customers’ fleets on the road. It is our goal to make sure that your fleets are functioning with as little downtime as possible.
Choose from a complete line of Versalift trucks, from van-mounted 29’ lifts to articulated telescoping VSTs with material handling capabilities. Specific customizations, including insulation and full boom articulation, will help you to feel fully confident in your equipment and in the safety of your employees. Our bucket trucks and aerial lifts are made with you in mind: commercial van bodies allow for lighting tube and ladder storage, and additional parts and equipment storage, which is essential for light and sign maintenance. No matter your role you play in the light, sign and signal industry, our aerial lifts provide your employees and fleets with the tools they need to safely maximize their capability and efficiency, which means happier customers, happier employees and bigger, better bottom lines.
Versalift Service
Versalift Service is the best in its class because we put our customers first. Customer service is a point of pride within our family of distributors, and we all take ownership in providing to you. We have grown to become the leader in safety, stability and quality leader in Bucket Trucks for North America, South America, and Europe because we take the time to put our customers first. We always want to hear from our customers, so we can understand your concerns, and get you back to the jobsite as quickly as possible. We are able to augment and improve our overall level of service by using advanced technology innovations to create our Versalift Partner Portal (VPP), which allows you to manage everything you need to support and maintain your bucket truck from the device of your choosing: tablet, smartphone, laptop or desktop computer. Through the VPP, any customer can access their Bucket Truck manuals, they can order parts, schedule a maintenance call, or they can set up a time to speak directly with an engineer.
The culture of innovation and quality at Versalift powers the work we do. Several advancements that Versalift has made are available on every one of our bucket trucks. Safety, reliability and overall quality drive the improvements and innovations that we make every day. The safety of the men and women who use our equipment is central to our purpose. To that end, ElectroGuard, which comes standard on every Versalift product, provides a 42” dielectric gap in the Versalift boom – more than double the gap of our competitors – because over-engineering a lift to be extra safe is never a bad thing. TruGuard is Versalift’s proprietary upper control isolating system, and it provides another level of protection to linemen working in an aerial lift from phase-to-phase and phase-to-ground electrical contact. TruGuard comes standard on many Versalift products, and it is an available customization on all others. When we deliver a truck to a customer, we deliver it with the expectation that no parts will need to be replaced. Unlike our competitors, there are no recommended parts to be replaced. Versalift bucket trucks are engineered to the highest standard of quality so that they last safely and reliably to the benefit of our customers.
