The unique Lightweight Portable Gantry |


Traditional Steel Lifting Structures & Gantries MADE OBSOLETE |
| • IMPROVE SAFETY | • INCREASE EFFICIENCY | • REDUCE COSTS!!! |
The PORTA-GANTRY range of lightweight portable gantries brings a new dimension to the professional lifting market. The Portability, safe manual assembly and rigidity of the structure mean that it opens up a whole new market for the use of gantries with lifting applications such as confined space, rooftop, HVAC, lift-shaft, waste water, Clean environments (food, hospitals) etc and increasing availability from the hire industry.
The PORTA-GANTRY is a bolted structure with lateral beam and leg bracing giving it tremendous stability and rigidity under load. The component sections and materials are custom designed to give the maximum load capacity at minimum weight without compromising safety factors and have all been thoroughly tested at NAMAS accredited laboratories.
The main features of the range are as follows:
| The use of the PORTA-GANTRY usually leads to capital savings by reducing fixed, poorly utilised installations but can also lead to reduced maintenance costs (inspection & insurance), manual handling compliance (reduced absenteeism & legal claims) and Planning Regulation compliance where there may be constraints on building of permanent structures. |
