Our contract lift solutions in Axminster encompass a variety of services in which our own staff can undertake all aspects of the lift, from the initial design phase all the way through to final execution. During the initial planning stages, we use market leading CAD software or BIM modelling to scope the exact requirements of the lift. This gives us a solid foundation from which we can move onto the risk assessment, method statement provision, QHSE analysis, road closure management, transport logistics and round the clock management.
If you so choose, our own in-house engineers and contract lift managers can take ultimate responsibility for the entire process from start to finish, so that you can always have total confidence to ‘Make the Safe Choice’ with Ainscough Crane Hire. For a particularly complex, high risk or heavy lift in Axminster, we can even provide you with the option to choose several of our services in the form of a bespoke turnkey package, tailored to your exact requirements and schedule.
