Accordion

Passenger &Goods Hoists are used to transport people and materials vertically up a building or structure and down a shaft below ground level with the ability to stop at a number of landings.
The hoist cage is driven by one, two or three geared brake motors, depending on the payload of the cage. The geared motor drives a pinion acting on the mast rack to move the hoist cage in the desired direction. In addition to the drive motors there is a completely independent ‘safety device’ that comes in to play should the hoist cage exceed its rated travel speed in a downward direction. This brings the hoist cage to a controlled stop within three metres of operation.

Hoist cages can be supplied in a variety of sizes: 1.0 - 6.2 metres long, 1.3 – 2.0 metres wide and payload between 500 – 3200Kg. With access to the cage available from three sides, hoists can be configured to suit most applications in construction and industry.
A recent addition to our fleet is the AlimakMammoth 55/46 hoist, which has a 5500Kg capacity and measures 3m wide x 4.6m long.
Different drive technologies and control systems are available to suit the intended use of the hoist and provide a reliable and efficient solution for your hoisting needs.

Surveys & Drawings

Site Surveys

Our fully-qualified team of Site Surveyors have many years’ experience in Traffic Management site setups and will be able to visit your proposed work site to assess your particular TM needs to enable you to carry out your work safely.

They will work closely with our Drawings team and recommend the appropriate Chapter 8 Signing, Lighting and Guarding compliant TM setup.

Drawings

From our dedicated call centre in Kemble, our Drawings team can interpret specifications from our Site Surveyors or from your own instruction, to produce a CAD drawing which depicts your particular site layout and itemises each piece of equipment and signage that you will need.

These drawings are vital in the process of obtaining Local Authority approval for road closures and streetworks.

Authority Applications

Local Authority Applications

We offer you the complete Traffic Management package, and that includes liaising with the relevant Local Authority obtain approval for your road closure. Through the use of our highly-skilled Site Surveyors and Drawings team, we are able to demonstrate full compliance on your behalf, and through discussions and ongoing liaison with the authority we can amend and update the drawings and application as necessary.

Should you have a longer-term project of a more complex nature, we can also support you by attending planning meetings to demonstrate and present the appropriate Traffic Management solution; giving piece of mind to all parties.

Installation & Dismantling

Delivery

In many instances, our customers have their own Traffic Management installation teams, and we are happy to deliver the relevant Traffic Lights and Chapter 8 Signing, Lighting and Guarding to your premises for use by your own teams at the worksite.

Installation

Following a site survey, production of drawings, and necessary approvals we will work closely with you to ensure that your Traffic Management solution is setup on time, on budget and in the safest way possible, with the least disruption to your work.

Once installed, our in-house system allows us to take photos of the completed Traffic Management setup and upload them to our online portal, Axis. Once uploaded you have real-time access to a time-and-date-stamped record of the correct installation, in the right place, at the right time; giving you complete peace of mind.

Dismantling & Collection

Temporary signage and guarding which has been left on-site longer than the agreed lane/road closure limit will attract financial penalties from the local authority. Upon completion of your worksite, we will dismantle your Traffic Management setup and remove all temporary signing and guarding.

Call Centre & 24/7 Service

National Call Centre

Our call centre facility in Kemble, Gloucestershire, and is a one-stop-shop and single point of contact for our traffic management customers. The highly skilled team have a great deal of experience in following robust, bespoke processes specific to individual customers’ requirements, as well as providing management information and monthly KPI dashboards.

The call centre is utilised by a number of our larger customers, as not only their single point of contact, but also as a professional meeting venue, when they have to present appropriate Traffic Management solutions to their own clients.

24/7 Call-Out Service

Ensuring that your Traffic Management setup is operating safely and efficiently at all times is our key priority. With the high interaction between passing road vehicles and your worksite, it is inevitable that sometimes signage and guarding is moved out of place or even knocked over completely. Faulty traffic signals can cause lengthy delays and tail-backs so that is why every piece of equipment features a national number which is manned 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. One call to that number will put you in touch with somebody who can contact the relevant Service Centre to ensure that any issues on-site are quickly rectified, no matter what time of day or night.
