GANTRY MOUNTING
Ernest Electro Engineering supplies dependable gantry mounting solutions for industrial and commercial environments where safe, practical, and efficient lifting support is required. Our range of industrial gantries is designed to assist businesses that need flexible lifting systems for workshops, maintenance areas, warehouses, factories, production facilities, and other operational spaces.
A well-selected gantry can improve workflow, support safer material handling, and provide a practical lifting point where permanent overhead crane systems may not be suitable. With multiple gantry models, execution options, and optional extras available, Ernest Electro Engineering helps customers choose gantry mounting equipment that suits their working conditions and operational requirements.
Industrial Gantries for Reliable Lifting Support
Industrial gantries are used to create a strong, elevated lifting structure for hoists and other lifting gear. They are commonly used for moving, positioning, assembling,, or maintaining heavy components, equipment, and materials.
We understand that businesses rely on durable utilities and equipment to keep critical operations running. Our gantry mounting solutions are designed with practical industrial use in mind, offering dependable support for lifting tasks across a variety of sectors.
Whether you need a compact gantry for a smaller workspace or a higher suspension point for larger applications, our available gantry options provide flexibility without compromising on strength.
Quick Mounting Gantry Solutions
Our quick mounting gantry range is ideal for businesses that need lifting support that can be assembled, positioned and used efficiently. These gantries are available in three main models: MINI, STANDARD, and MAXI.
Each model offers a different side frame width and lifting gear suspension height, allowing customers to select a gantry according to available space, required lift height, and handling needs.
All three models have a lifting capacity of 1,500kg as standard, making them suitable for a wide range of commercial and industrial lifting applications.
MINI Quick Mounting Gantry
The MINI quick mounting gantry is a compact option for facilities that require lifting support in smaller working areas.
Specifications
- Width of side frames: 1,200mm
- Suspension point for lifting gear: 1,180mm to 2,100mm
- Lifting capacity: 1,500kg
- Total weight: 115kg
The MINI model is well suited to applications where space is limited but a dependable lifting point is still required. Its compact frame width makes it practical for workshops, maintenance areas, and operational spaces with tighter access.
STANDARD Quick Mounting Gantry
The STANDARD quick mounting gantry offers a larger frame and higher suspension range than the MINI model, making it a practical mid-range option.
Specifications
- Width of side frames: 1,720mm
- Suspension point for lifting gear: 1,680mm to 3,000mm
- Lifting capacity: 1,500kg
- Total weight: 130kg
The STANDARD model provides a strong balance between size, lift height, and usability. It is a suitable option for many general industrial and commercial lifting tasks where additional height and working width are required.
MAXI Quick Mounting Gantry
The MAXI quick mounting gantry is designed for applications that require a wider frame and higher suspension point.
Specifications:
- Width of side frames: 2,295mm
- Suspension point for lifting gear: 2,180mm to 4,000mm
- Lifting capacity: 1,500kg
- Total weight: 146kg
The MAXI model is ideal for larger work areas or applications that require more vertical lifting clearance. Its higher suspension range makes it a practical solution for handling larger equipment, components, or materials.
Gantry Mounting Options for Different Applications
Every lifting environment has different requirements. Ernest Electro Engineering offers gantry mounting options that can be adapted to suit a range of industrial and commercial uses.
In addition to the MINI, STANDARD and MAXI quick mounting gantries, other versions are available to support more specialised needs.
These include:
- Increasing the safe workload to 3,000kg by doubling up any of the models
- Movable-under-load gantries available in MINI, STANDARD and MAXI executions
- Portal side frame gantry options
- Wall mount gantry options
These variations allow customers to select a gantry configuration that supports their specific lifting, positioning, and workspace requirements.
Increased Safe Workload Options
For applications requiring greater lifting capacity, the safe workload can be increased to 3,000kg by doubling up any of the available gantry models.
This option is useful for businesses that need stronger lifting support while still benefiting from the flexible design of the MINI, STANDARD, or MAXI gantry range. Choosing the correct load capacity is essential for safe operation, and our team can assist with guidance based on the intended use.
Movable-Under-Load Gantries
Movable-under-load gantries are available in MINI, STANDARD, and MAXI executions. These versions are useful where loads need to be lifted and repositioned safely within a working area.
This type of gantry mounting solution can support improved workflow in environments where components, machinery, or materials need to be moved between workstations or service areas.
Portal Side Frame Gantry Option
Portal side frame gantries provide an additional configuration for facilities with specific access, clearance, or layout requirements. This option can be useful where the gantry needs to integrate more effectively with the surrounding workspace or existing operational flow.
Wall Mount Gantry Option
A wall mount gantry is a practical solution where floor space is limited or where a fixed lifting point is required along a wall or structural area. This option may be suitable for workshops, stores, production lines, and maintenance zones where space efficiency is a priority.
Optional Extras for Gantry Systems
To improve functionality and ease of use, a range of optional extras is available for Ernest Electro Engineering gantry systems.
Optional extras include:
- Electrically driven chain hoists
- Manual chain hoists
- Transport carriage
- Undercarriages for moving unloaded gantries
- Hand winch for assembling MINI, STANDARD, and MAXI gantries
These additions allow customers to configure their gantry mounting system according to how the equipment will be used day to day.
Electrically Driven and Manual Chain Hoists
Both electrically driven and manual chain hoists are available, depending on the lifting application and operational preference.
Manual chain hoists are a practical option for controlled lifting where simplicity and cost-efficiency are important. Electrically driven chain hoists are ideal where frequent lifting, improved productivity, or reduced manual effort is required.
Transport Carriage
A transport carriage can assist with moving loads along the gantry system, helping improve handling efficiency, and positioning accuracy. This can be especially useful in workshops and industrial facilities where loads need to be moved safely across a defined working area.
Undercarriages for Moving Unloaded Gantries
Undercarriages are available for moving unloaded gantries. This provides greater flexibility when the gantry needs to be repositioned within a facility but is not carrying a load.
This option can be useful for operations where lifting points are required in different areas at different times.
Hand Winch for Gantry Assembly
A hand winch is available for assembling MINI, STANDARD, and MAXI gantries. This supports easier setup and can help improve handling during assembly.
For businesses that need practical, efficient equipment, this optional extra can make gantry use more convenient.
Benefits of Gantry Mounting for Industrial Operations
A well-designed gantry mounting system can offer several benefits for industrial and commercial businesses.
These benefits include:
- Reliable support for lifting equipment
