Cranes

Choosing by access, not capacity

The constraint on most crane selection is getting the machine into position and setting it up, rather than the weight of the lift. Spider cranes pass through doorways and work indoors; pick-and-carry and mini cranes suit yards and confined external areas.

Ground bearing and outriggers

Capacity depends on outrigger spread and what the ground beneath can take. A machine on partial spread lifts far less than the headline figure, and the ground has to carry the point load through the pads.

Planning the lift

Every lift needs planning by someone competent, with the load weight confirmed, the radius established and the crane chart checked for the configuration achievable on site.

Common questions
How do I choose a crane for indoor work?

Start from access — doorway widths, floor loading and headroom. Spider cranes are designed for this and often run on electric power indoors.

Why does outrigger spread matter?

Capacity depends on it. A machine on partial spread lifts considerably less than the headline rating, so work from the chart for the configuration you can achieve.

Do I need a lift plan?

Yes. Lifts should be planned by a competent person, with the load weight confirmed and the crane chart checked for the actual radius and configuration.

What types of Cranes are available?
