Commercial workshop refurbishment & garage equipment installation by CCS
Northgate Vehicle Hire’s Borehamwood depot benefits from a spacious on site workshop to support the ever-increasing demand for commercial vehicle hire and rental services in the busy Greater London region.
CCS Garage Equipment created a functional commercial vehicle workshop design that gives Northgate’s Borehamwood depot capacity to grow in the coming years, specifying equipment by trusted, industry-leading suppliers including Nussbaum, Cormach and Samoa for reliability, ease of operation and operational safety.
Northgate’s fully-equipped Borehamwood commercial vehicle workshop featured fixed 2-post Nussbaum Smart Lifts, suitable for smaller vans and light commercial vehicles, fixed 2-post Nussbaum Power Lift suitable for larger vans, new Cormach tyre changing and wheel balancing equipment, air compressor, full lubrication systems including new steel bunded fresh and waste oil storage tanks, and a new partitioned area for the safe storage of equipment and parts.
Double-joined arms on the Nussbaum vehicle lifts accommodate the lifting and servicing of electric vehicles, preparing this vehicle hire depot for increased future demand as fleets continue to evolve to electric. Installation was completed by CCS Garage Equipment’s experienced engineers, managed by our dedicated project manager, before testing, commission and full team training to ensure the safe operation of this busy vehicle hire workshop, fully compliant with health and safety regulations.
