Crane Box

Our crane boxes, also known as work boxes are designed for carrying personnel via crane to out of reach working areas. Commonly used when scaffolding and elevated working platforms are not practical. Our range has a variety of sizes, shown below, ranging from a 4 man box, down to a single man box. Available in closed and open tops . They have forklift pockets and lifting lugs which enable maneuverability via forklift or crane. The doors are inward opening only and self-closing with a latch to prevent unintentional opening during work. Each crane box comes with lifting chains and a current engineers certificate. They fit within the Australian man cage regulations. It is also important to know the difference between a crane box and a first aid cage and this is explained here.
