Project Highlights

Tight Alley Access Lift

Between two closely built properties, our crane lifted materials into a rear garden where traditional equipment could not operate. The project was completed smoothly despite minimal working space.

Urban Glazing Installation

In a central London street, we lifted large glass panels into place using a glass sucker. With surrounding obstructions and restricted access, our crane delivered precise placement safely and efficiently.

Rooftop Garden Delivery

For a property in central London, we transported and lifted planters, trees, and landscaping materials onto a rooftop terrace. The lift was carried out with minimal disruption to residents and pedestrians.
