Construction jobs are no stranger to having large heavy objects involved, but many times the solution is a full crane that requires an operator and needs to be scheduled weeks in advance. That could be overkill if there’s only a few items that need to be lifted.
EZ-Rig Cranes hopes to be the solution for your lifting needs for those jobs that really don’t need a full crane. With a load capacity of 2400 pounds with the use of a counter weight and a boom that extends to 16’10”, EZ-rig can hoist heavy equipment up 2 stories and lower loads over 13 stories. EZ-Rig can even be adjusted to a width of 3 feet to fit through a standard doorway and can fold to fit into a standard elevator, allowing you to maneuver the crane to spaces you typically could not.
The video below shows an operator using the electric winch to lift and lower a heavy piece of equipment and then moving it with ease with the help of EZ-rigs 8” locking caster wheels.
