What a fantastic few days at the ICE Expo

We were genuinely blown away by the level of interest in our products and services throughout the event.

A huge thank you to everyone who took the time to visit the
KMS Testing, Inspection & Certification stand and take part in our “Guess the Shackles” competition.

There was brilliant craic, plenty of banter, and great conversations around the stand all day, with some very confident guesses too 😄.

We’re genuinely excited to go through all the guesses and find out who came the closest, or if there is a genius out there who managed to guess the exact number.🧐

The winner will receive the lifting equipment bundle seen on the day worth over €1000. What a prize! 🙏

And because of the incredible interest and support which made the competition even more exciting we’re also adding a €250 LiftingEquipment.ie voucher for the runner-up (2nd closest guess), which can be used online, over the phone, or in-store.

Winners will be announced soon, so keep an eye on our pages and emails for updates.

Best of luck to everyone who entered!

🚧 A fresh new face for our office and shop in Tuam

After months of planning, design work, and serious hands-on effort, we’re delighted to share the transformation of our newly upgraded office and shop in Tuam. From the custom mural to the sharp new layout, this upgrade now better reflects the quality of service and equipment we deliver every day — and it’s a space that works better for both our team and our customers. 🙏

A massive thank you to the teams who made it happen:

🔹 Forde Bros. Ballinlough Ltd – the backbone of this project. From concept to finish, their work on the new shopfront windows, and doors brought the entire vision to life
🔹 Ruairí O’Byrne at Feature Walls – for the incredible mural that lifts the whole building (and the interiors we can’t wait to show you next)
🔹 Door Motion – for their expert handling of our upgraded roller shutters and everything in between

Huge appreciation to everyone who contributed — and to our loyal customers for the patience and support throughout the build.

📍 Call in today and check it out for yourself.
