Genie Introduces Lift Guard™ Zone Lighting for GS™ Scissor Lifts

• Genie introduces Lift Guard™ Zone Lighting for GS™ scissor lifts to enhance operator and worker awareness.

• The system uses red laser lights to create a visual boundary 61 cm from the chassis edge, improving collision prevention.

• The bright, durable glass lens ensures visibility in any indoor lighting condition, aiding in perimeter clearance awareness.

• Installation is straightforward, with protected lights and harness routing to prevent damage from falling objects.

• Lift Guard Zone Lighting will be available as a factory-fit option in EMEA by Q4 2025 and globally in early 2026, with aftermarket kits for all Genie slab scissor lift models.

Highlights:

• Lift Guard Zone Lighting creates a visible border at ground level of the Genie^® scissor lifts. Red laser lights illuminate perimeter clearance to operators and warn nearby workers if they are within the machine’s work zone.

• Lift Guard™ Zone Lighting will be available as a factory-fit option for customers in Europe, the Middle East and Africa in Q4 2025, and all regions globally in early 2026.

• Easy-to-install aftermarket retrofit kits will be available globally in early 2026.

Perimeter lighting system increases operator and adjacent worker awareness for collision prevention in the work zone

The newest Genie accessory for several models of GS™ scissor lifts improves awareness of the perimeter around the scissor lift. Lift Guard Zone Lighting features red laser lights that create a visual boundary at ground level about 61 cm / 2 ft from the edge of the chassis.

“Employers are increasingly focused on collision and entrapment avoidance, as well as dropped object protection,” said Bryan Williams, Genie Senior Product Manager. “Providing information to the people working on or around scissor lifts helps increase awareness of their surroundings, potentially reducing the risk of these types of incidents.”

The bright beam is about 15 mm / 0.6 in mm thick and visible in any indoor lighting condition. The light uses a glass lens that will not fade over time, unlike plastic LED lights. This helps operators see the perimeter clearance and signals nearby workers that they may be entering the scissor lift’s work zone.

Installation is simple, and both the lights and harness routing are protected by brackets to prevent damage from falling objects.

“Genie is actively improving and expanding available options and accessories across our product lines. The goal is to help end users be more productive and provide rental companies with tools to increase fleet utilization,” Williams said.

Lift Guard Zone Lighting will be available as a factory-fit option for customers in Europe, the Middle East and Africa in Q4 2025, and all other regions in early 2026. Lift Guard Zone Lighting aftermarket kits are compatible with all Genie slab scissor lift models and will be available globally in early 2026.
