CTE for OpenView

CTE UK has supplied the first batch of Z19 articulated boom, truck mounted lifts to the OpenView Group which designs, supplies, installs and maintains CCTV and intruder alarm systems, audio and video entry systems, and security doors and screens.

The Romford, Essex, based company was founded in 1984 and has three specialist subsidiaries: - Cartel Security Systems, Delaware Communications and Camrasonic and now has over 110 employees operating from six locations to provide a national coverage for its clients.

It is a principal contractor to government departments, local authorities, the Metropolitan Police, and a select group of the major building companies including Connaught and Apollo.

The company has until now rented in access platforms for many years but decided to move towards owning its own fleet. The company took a good look at the products on the market before ordering a number of 19 metre working height CTE Z19 lifts mounted on 3.5 ton Nissan Cabstar chassis, which allows them to be driven by any of the company employees with an ordinary car driving license.

Paul Bullen, group director at OpenView said: “We need to respond in a fast and professional manner and wanted the convenience of our own equipment. Having carried out extensive market research, we decided upon CTE products.”

“The Z19, with 19 metres of working height and 230kg basket capacity to eight metres of outreach, offers just what we need and is highly cost effective over hiring. The Nissan is an ideal town vehicle due to its great turning circle. The package of the CTE Z19 and Nissan make it a great investment.”
