Gantry Frame / Builders Hoist Trestle

This particular gantry frame or trestle comes in three main parts, the two A-frames complete with folding support brackets and the main runway beam to which the gantry hoist is attached. For additional trestle stability there are trestle tie rods available which brace out the a-frames at the bottom. The tie rods are optional although are usually recommended. Ballast boxes are also an optional extra, but highly recommended.

The ballast boxes fit to the rear of the frame and can be filled with the appropriate weight in order to counterbalance the trestle and hoist.

We have a choice of safe working loads available for the gantry frame and ballast boxes. 300 kg, 800 kg and 1000 kg can be accommodated. You can view the dimensions below.
