Lift Rite New 2018

Hot on the heels from our successful full membership audit for LEEA, we are pleased to have followed this up with certification to the EN1090-1 standard and our ISO9001 recertification, demonstrating our commitment to delivering quality products to our clients and guaranteeing our credibility as a fabricator.ISO 9001 Colour

Lift-Rite have just completed the engineering, build, test and installation of a bespoke telescopic 5t crane system for our client in London.

 

The site itself was just around the corner from St Paul’s Cathedral, as central London as you can get!  This made site access very tight and a lack of material handling solutions meant we had to be fully self sufficient when unloading, moving and lifting the crane components and finding a number of unreported changes on site just added to the challenge.  After four days on site our team of four were triumphant and had the system up and running.  We will return in a few weeks to carry out the load test and get the system in service.

 

If you have any bespoke #lifting, #fabrication or #testing requirements, give us a call to see how we can help.

Lift-Rite have been back to the High Level Bridge in Gateshead (one of the seven magnificent bridges over the Tyne) to carry out load testing of the maintenance access gantries to BS 6037-2, which are located under each of the six spans.

Logistically challenging, we used ‘sausage’ water bags to apply the load and carried our own water supply to safely and efficiently complete the testing with minimum disruption to the public. Following consultation with Port of Tyne, and the local water and council authorities, we released the water straight into the river, eliminating the challenge of recovering weight back onto the road level of the bridge.

If you have any tricky lifting or load testing problems that need a solution, please don’t hesitate to give us a call.
