Mix and Match: Which Crane Hire Accessories are Right for You?
Crane accessories include a really wide selection of options these days. This huge range is the natural evolution as modern cranes add capacities and new capabilities. Mobile cranes, for example, have a lot of new features as well as their on-site agility and excellent lift capabilities. In this article, we’re taking a look at the options available when you hire a crane.
Decisions, Decisions – Which Accessories Do You Need?
It’s a good idea to take a long look at the possible values of your accessories. Crane hire involves a number of operations, too, so it’s best to make sure you have everything you need.
The “shopping list” approach is the best way to consider your needs. Have a look through these options and decide which ones will help your project.
Cages
This range includes flying loading bay and cargo cages, brick cages, block cages, roof tile cages, and rescue or first aid cages. The mix of bulk handling operational needs and basic safety options does need to be addressed systematically and thoroughly.
Rubbish and Skip Bins
These are on-site essentials for managing materials, so how many do you need, and what sizes do you need? You can use your on-site disposal assessment of operational needs to compare choices.
Concrete Kibbles
In any construction role, size and capacity of concrete kibbles will define the workflow. Homework is required for this choice of accessory, and a good informative talk with your suppliers can deliver real value.
Spreader Bars
Spreader bars are also essentials for handling a vast selection of different loads. Explore your accessory options carefully and you’ll find exactly what you need.
Pallet Forks
The pallet fork is the workhorse on just about every site in so many roles. If you’re using pallet forks for your job, be fussy and explore the new pallet forks coming on the market. They can deliver excellent capacity and workflow.
Forklift Slippers
Good slippers are always very useful. You can get the perfect slippers for your forklifts to manage any load.
Equalising Sheaves
A critical part of load management and rigging, equalising sheaves must be chosen according to specific operational criteria.
Loading Bay Accessories
What is the best mix of cranes and accessories for your loading bay? Can you get better business value with an enhanced range of capacities and handling abilities?
