Being able to lift and manipulate heavy items anywhere in the workplace or outdoors environment can make life much easier for your staff, and by investing in the widest range of time and labor saving devices possible from Easy Rack, you will be able to improve productivity by ensuring that employees are able to get the job done more efficiently, saving you money in the long run. One area where every workplace can improve is in the ability for staff to be able to move large heavy items within a small area, and then be able to move on. The best solution to this requirement is a portable jib crane, which can be moved into place using a fork lift and then left while an operator carries out the task required before it is moved onto the next location where it is needed.



Portable jib cranes mean that a single person is able to move a relatively large amount of material within a limited area quite quickly without having to tie up expensive resources such as a fork lift truck for lengthy periods of time.

The simple and elegant design of a portable jib crane is entirely functional, with great consideration given to making it completely stable in use without having to be secured into place. Easy Rack offer a variety of these jibs, but their design and function is the same. I essence, a large metal box filled with concrete is attached to a post up to 10 feet tall that has a jib and lifting equipment attached to it. The jib is able to rotate freely and lift weights of up to 1,000 pounds without tipping over thanks to the weight of the base.

The portable jib cranes are made to the highest standard possible, and feature all the latest safety thinking in their design as standard. The post and jib are made from high quality steel with cast bolts for additional strength. The whole crane is powder coated for a more hard wearing finish, and the crane can rotate a full 360 degrees with a touch, but is always under control.

The base of the portable jib crane features standard size fork lift tubes, meaning that it will slot onto a regular fork lift for transporting around the workplace to wherever it is needed next, and setting up only requires the forks to be withdrawn. The crane is practically ready as soon as it is on the ground.

Instead of having to move items around using the forklift or other device, or install a lifting system into the ceiling of your workplace at a great expense, this portable jib crane is the perfect solution to your needs, and represents an excellent investment in getting the job done more efficiently at a relatively low cost in comparison to the alternatives. Easy to operate, simple to move, and completely reliable thanks to its straightforward design, these cranes have many uses and will be in constant demand.

Regardless of the exact system that you opt to install in your workplace, you will find that the portable jib cranes are both efficient and hardwearing and will serve you well in the long term. Purchasing one of these fine lifting systems should be seen as an investment in, rather than a cost to, your business.
