Over the course of five carefully planned days, with the help of DM cranes and their Spiering’s AT6 mobile tower crane, we were hard at work in Crick, lifting thousands of solar panels onto the roof of a warehouse as part of a major sustainable energy installation.

With a project of this scale, planning and coordination were essential. Working closely with the site team, every stage of the lifting operation was carefully scheduled and managed to keep the installation progressing safely and efficiently.

The AT6 proved an ideal solution for the job, combining the benefits of a mobile crane with the reach and flexibility of a tower crane to maintain a consistent flow of materials to the roof.

A great project to be involved in, helping support the installation of renewable energy infrastructure and contributing towards a more sustainable future.

When access is tight, our smallest crane the Kato NK75 proves its worth every time. For this lift in Oakham, we were tasked with lifting a number of heavy Velux windows to the extension at the back of the building, with access being the main issue for completing the works.

The Kato reversed into position and rigged without issue thanks to careful planning and liaising with the site team and operator. The works were completed quickly and with minimal fuss for the site.

Do you have an upcoming lift which requires careful planning an ex*****on, don't hesitate to get in touch.

A challenging lift, carefully planned and delivered on schedule at the Coventry Building Society Arena.

With the help of Nationwide lifting’s 160T crane, we accessed the inside of the stadium to install a large pane of glass onto the wall for the media box, high above the stands. Using a specialist glass vacuum lifting attachment, the glass was positioned accurately and safely into place.

Planning was key to the success of this project. Working closely with our customer, we helped develop a suitable trackway solution to allow the crane and support vehicles to access the stadium without damaging the pitch.

From access and ground protection through to the lift itself, careful coordination ensured the work was completed safely, on time and in line with the customer's programme and deadlines.

Another great example of how the right equipment, detailed lift planning and close collaboration can overcome a complex site challenge.

From Diddly Squat to The Farmer's Dog... A ‘Lift’ We'll Never Forget!

A-Lift Crane Hire had the privilege of supporting the production team behind Clarkson's Farm with the relocation of the now-famous wooden goose hut from Diddly Squat Farm to The Farmer's Dog, where it was transformed into the Christmas grotto featured in Series 5.

With a request for assistance, our team quickly planned the operation, supplying our Tadano ATF70-4G along with Brit-lift modular lifting beams to safely lift the shed from the field, load it to awaiting transport and position it at its new home at the pub.

Like many parts filmed for the show, the lift didn't make the final edit as everything went smoothly, safely and exactly to plan, allowing the production schedule to stay on track. Whilst that may not make for dramatic television, it's a testament to the experience of our planning team, our operators and everyone involved in delivering another successful lift.

As an added bonus, our team had the opportunity to meet Jeremy Clarkson, Kaleb Cooper and Charlie Ireland while on site, making it a project they’ll certainly remember.

Whether it's relocating buildings, lifting modular structures or delivering specialist contract lifting solutions, A-Lift Crane Hire is proud to provide safe, professional lifting services on projects of every size.

While most of the city was still asleep, our Böcker AK46 was already set up and ready to go in Leicester, supporting an out-of-hours mechanical services project with a 03:30am site start.

The early start allowed critical Air Handling Unit (AHU) lifting operations to be completed before the site became busy, helping minimise disruption while keeping the project firmly on schedule.

The Böcker AK46 is an ideal solution for this type of work. Its compact footprint, rapid setup and impressive lifting performance make it perfectly suited to restricted access sites, city centre locations and time-sensitive projects where efficiency is key.

Whether it's overnight, early morning or weekend working, our experienced operators and lifting team are committed to delivering safe, professional lifting solutions whenever our customers need us.

At A-Lift Crane Hire, we understand that construction and maintenance projects don't always happen between 8 and 5.

Need a lifting partner that works around your programme - not the other way around?

Our Böcker AK52 has recently been supporting essential building services works in Stevenage, making full use of its impressive 52-metre boom to assist with the replacement of rooftop Air Handling Unit (AHU) equipment.

Working in confined urban environments often presents challenges, but the AK52's compact footprint and exceptional reach allowed our team to complete the lifts efficiently while keeping disruption to a minimum.

In addition to lifting the replacement plant, the crane was also utilised with a certified lifting cage to safely lower gas bottles and other equipment from the roof, demonstrating the versatility of the AK52 across multiple lifting tasks during the project.

If you're planning rooftop works or require a compact crane with exceptional reach, we'd be pleased to help.

Over the past few weeks, our Liebherr LTM 1060 has been supporting a number of timber frame housing developments, helping contractors keep programmes on schedule with safe, efficient and accurate lifting operations.

Timber frame construction demands more than just lifting capacity. Long, often awkward loads require precise positioning, clear communication and experienced operators to ensure every roof truss, wall panel and structural component is placed exactly where it needs to be.

With its impressive reach, strong lifting performance and compact footprint, the LTM 1060 is perfectly suited to busy residential developments, where space is limited but productivity is essential.

Whether it's a single roof truss lift or ongoing support throughout an entire housing development, A-Lift Crane Hire has the equipment, experience and people to deliver.

Not every lift requires the biggest crane in the fleet. Sometimes it's about selecting the machine that best suits the site conditions.

Recently, our Kato NK-75 demonstrated exactly why it remains such a valuable part of the A-Lift Crane Hire fleet, lifting roof trusses for a residential extension where restricted access and limited setup space made crane selection critical.

Its compact footprint and excellent lifting performance allowed our team to position the trusses safely and efficiently while minimising disruption to the surrounding property. By carefully assessing the site and choosing the most suitable crane, we were able to complete the lift smoothly and keep the project progressing to schedule.

If you're planning an upcoming lift and would like advice on the most suitable crane, our team is always happy to help.
