We design, supply, and install workshop gantry cranes nationwide. Built for precision, durability, and safety, our cranes provide efficient lifting for workshops, factories, and industrial environments across the UK.
Since 2009, Crane & Lifting Services Ltd has supported workshops and industrial facilities across the UK with expert lifting solutions.
With a team of fully accredited engineers and a reputation for fast, effective service, we help keep your workshop cranes safe, compliant, and operational-whether you need a repair, a full installation, or regular maintenance.
We understand the pressures of production downtime, so we carry parts onboard, respond rapidly, and always issue LOLER certification when required. Our goal is simple: to help your team lift safely, work efficiently, and stay compliant without disruption.
Workshop gantry cranes are designed to provide safe, flexible lifting in confined or busy workspaces.
Depending on your lifting needs, space constraints, and floor layout, several configurations are available:
A compact, cost-effective solution for light to medium loads. These cranes are ideal for small workshops where space is limited but reliable overhead lifting is essential. They’re often paired with chain hoists.
Freestanding and mobile, A-frame gantries are perfect for moving loads across short distances within a workshop. They’re typically fitted with castors for easy repositioning and are suitable for temporary or flexible setups.
For workshops with limited floor space, ceiling-mounted cranes free up the ground for other operations. They require a strong building structure but offer excellent coverage and unobstructed floor movement.
These independent systems are anchored to the workshop floor and don’t rely on your building structure. Ideal for areas that need dedicated lifting zones without interfering with overhead installations.
Used in larger workshops with repetitive processes, these cranes operate along fixed rails to deliver precision lifting along a defined path, great for handling raw materials or finished components.
We don’t just supply workshop gantry cranes- we ensure they’re installed to specification, maintained to high standards, and repaired quickly when things go wrong. Whether you need a new system set up or emergency support, we keep your lifting operations running safely and smoothly.
Our engineers assemble and install your crane on-site, complete all load testing, and issue certification to confirm safe, compliant operation from day one.
We provide both planned maintenance and emergency breakdown repairs to reduce downtime and prolong the life of your equipment. Our team carries spare parts and performs on-the-spot diagnostics for fast results.
Whether your gantry crane needs installing, repairing, or re-certifying, we’re here to help. Our engineers respond fast, carry spare parts, and keep your operations running safely and legally-nationwide.
