Limited Access Drills: TEI MP Equipment for Confined Spaces
Some of the most important drilling and anchoring work happens in the hardest places to reach. Tight interior spaces, low headroom areas, narrow access paths, and congested job sites can stop production when standard rigs cannot fit or cannot maneuver safely. Limited access drills and compact equipment solve that problem by delivering the reach, torque, and control needed to complete drilling and installation work without tearing apart the site just to create room.
Intech Anchoring Systems supports contractors nationwide with limited access drills and equipment packages built for confined drilling conditions. From retrofit interiors to tight setback work and restricted staging areas, the right compact drill setup helps crews keep production moving, protect surrounding structures, and complete drilling tasks safely in constrained environments.

Benefits of Limited Access Drilling Equipment for Confined Job Sites
Limited access drilling equipment supports progress when clearance and access restrictions threaten the schedule. Compact rigs and purpose-built tooling allow drilling to continue inside existing structures, in basements and crawl spaces, in mechanical rooms, along tight building lines, and in congested work zones where larger equipment cannot operate safely. This approach can reduce demolition needs, limit disruption in active facilities, and help preserve finished surfaces while still meeting depth and alignment requirements.
The right compact setup also improves job site control. Smaller equipment can improve positioning in tight footprints, support more precise drilling angles, and reduce the risk of contact with nearby structural elements. When equipment selection matches the actual constraints, the drilling plan stays practical and crews can work with fewer workarounds.
TEI MP Drill: Compact Capability for High-Demand Work
Intech Anchoring Systems offers the TEI MP Drill, an exceptional limited access drill engineered for work zones where traditional rigs cannot reach. The TEI MP Drill is designed to navigate the tightest spaces while still utilizing a feed system. Any smaller, and drilling shifts into hand drill territory.
Despite its compact size, the TEI MP Drill delivers serious capability across a wide range of applications. Whether the scope requires installation of a 75 kip micropile, soil nails, rock bolts, coring, or hollow bars, the TEI MP Drill supports reliable and efficient performance in restricted environments. For contractors working in tight interiors or limited staging conditions, this drill expands what is possible without sacrificing control or versatility.
MP260 Limited Access Hollow Bar Drill
Limited access hollow bar drill. Installs R32, R38, or T40 bar in 5 ft lengths only.
Features
The MP260 includes two selectable power stroke settings that give operators more precise control over percussion energy and impact frequency during drilling. Reversible rotation motors support efficient drilling performance while helping reduce the chance of jamming in difficult conditions.

FAQs About Limited Access Drills & Equipment
What counts as limited access drilling?
Limited access drilling applies when site conditions restrict the use of standard drilling rigs, such as low headroom, narrow access paths, interior work zones, tight setbacks, or congested sites where larger equipment cannot operate safely.
Can limited access equipment support micropiles and anchoring installations?
Yes, when the equipment and tooling match the scope. Capability depends on access limits, depth needs, material conditions, and the installation objective.
How do you plan equipment access for interior drilling?
Planning typically focuses on entry dimensions, floor protection, turning radius, staging space, and safe movement paths from the access point to the work area.
Does limited access drilling reduce disruption compared to opening up space for a full-size rig?
In many cases, yes. Compact equipment can reduce demolition and site changes, which helps preserve finishes and reduce disruption in occupied or active environments.
What information helps you recommend the right limited access setup?
Access width, headroom height, drilling depth, and the work objective help most. Photos of the access path and work area can also help confirm fit and mobilization needs.
