Our Range of Industrial Gantry Cranes
At Gantries.co.uk, we understand that no two lifting requirements are identical. We offer a comprehensive suite of crane gantries designed to optimise your workspace and maximise productivity.
Fixed & Portable Gantry Cranes
For facilities requiring flexibility, our portable gantry cranes are the gold standard. Available in both steel and lightweight aluminium, these units are equipped with high-grade swivel castors for effortless positioning across your shop floor. If your application demands permanent high-capacity lifting, our fixed gantry systems provide unmatched structural integrity.
Bespoke A-Frame Gantries
The A-Frame gantry is the workhorse of the modern warehouse. We provide custom-built A-frame solutions that can be adjusted for height and span, allowing you to navigate low-clearance areas while maintaining heavy lifting capabilities.
Mobile & Track-Mounted Systems
For large-scale industrial applications, our track-mounted gantry cranes offer a stable, high-capacity solution for moving heavy loads across long distances. These are ideal for outdoor stone yards, steel stockholders, and manufacturing plants.

What is the difference between a gantry crane and an overhead bridge crane?
The primary difference lies in the support structure. An overhead bridge crane is permanently fixed to a building's columns or ceiling. A gantry crane is self-supporting, using legs that move on floor rails or wheels. This makes gantries more cost-effective and versatile, as they do not require expensive structural modifications to your facility.
Do I need a professional to install my gantry crane?
For small, lightweight portable aluminum gantries, simple assembly by competent staff is often sufficient. However, for fixed industrial systems, track-mounted gantries, or high-capacity A-frames, professional installation is highly recommended to ensure structural alignment and safety compliance.
How often does a crane gantry need to be inspected in the UK?
Under LOLER (Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998), all lifting equipment, including gantry cranes, must undergo a "thorough examination" by a competent person at least every 12 months. If the crane is used for lifting people, this requirement increases to every 6 months.
Can gantry cranes be used outdoors?
Yes, many gantry cranes are specifically designed for outdoor use in shipyards, scrap yards, and construction sites. If you plan to use a gantry outside, we recommend a weather-protected finish (such as galvanisation) and specialised motors/hoists with high IP ratings to prevent corrosion and electrical failure.
What information do I need to provide for a bespoke gantry quote?
To give you an accurate quote, we typically need the Safe Working Load (SWL) or capacity, the overall height (and the required lift height), and the span (the width between the legs). Additionally, let us know if you require a manual or electric hoist and if the unit needs to be mobile or fixed.
