Portable Cranes
Overview
In many workshops, warehouses and other industrial settings, cranes of all kinds are a critical part of the equipment ensemble demanded by numerous jobs. Cranes improve the speed, efficiency and safety of heavy lifting, but stationary models have their limitations. Find the perfect balance between utility and flexibility with a portable crane from Tilt-Lock. We offer multiple types of portable cranes to accommodate a wide range of needs and applications.
How does it work
Portable cranes eliminate the need for the costly site prep and footing expenses required by conventional floor mount cranes. Portable cranes can be easily transported by fork truck around your facility, allowing for a greater versatility of use and application.
