\"A\" FRAME GANTRY / MOBILE CRANE

A-FRAME / MOBILE GANTRIES.

An A-frame is a structure designed to bear a load in a lightweight economical manner.

An A-frame gantry is a type of overhead crane.

Lifting heavy materials doesn't have to involve installing expensive equipment or permanently changing your facility.

A-frame gantries do the job efficiently and economically.

No permanent installation is required making them ideal if you rent your facility.

The portable design allows for relocation for use in more than one facility or work area.

A-frame gantries consist of a horizontal beam and end supports or legs. Our A-frames range in size from small workstation cranes to heavy duty construction cranes.

Our A-frame gantries are manufactured here on site and conform to BS2853/BS2573 standards. Complete with EC declaration of conformity and CE mark.

Quick and easy to assemble, painted with one coat of Trafalgar blue.

Fitted with 4 swivel castors, 2 are braked as standard.

Options available

 Parking jacks , manual or powered hoist,  isolator and festooned suspension brackets and wire if required.

Mobile gantries are designed for positioning over the load prior to lifting, they should NOT be used for transporting the load.
