For more than 40 years, Ainscough Crane Hire has been at the centre of a number of key industries, serving our blue chip clients with precision, diligence and efficiency. Our diverse range of lifting services are carried out by the most knowledgable, experienced and trusted experts in the lifting industry, including teams of crane operators, lift operatives and engineers, contract lift managers, and health and safety officers.
This gives us a wealth of in-house expertise that allows us to access all areas of a project, so that Ainscough customers can always expect planning, engineering and in-depth expertise of the very highest quality – regardless of the scale or complexity of the task at hand.
Our contract lift solutions encompass a range of services in which our experts take responsibility for all aspects of the lift, right from the very first phases all the way through to final execution. At the initial design stage, we begin by using market-leading CAD software and BIM modelling to scope the exact requirements of the lift. From there, we can move onto method statement provision, QHSE analysis, road closure management, transport logistics and round-the-clock-management.
We undertake all this using our own team of specialist engineers and contract lift managers, so you can always be confident that you’ve chosen to ‘Make the Safe Choice’. For particularly complex or heavy lift projects, we can provide several of our services in the form of a bespoke turnkey package, tailored to your own specific schedule and requirements.
With a wide range of mobile tower cranes, crawler cranes and heavy cranes at your disposal, at Ainscough Crane Hire we have the size and range of fleet to fulfil many of our blue chip customer’s requirements. Our sectors include:
We can provide these cranes as single units, or as part of a multi unit contract, so whether you need ad hoc mobile crane hire in Stirling for a specific task, or vehicles for longer term, larger scale jobs, you can rely on Ainscough Crane Hire to provide all the reliability, availability, expertise and capability you need.
