When mechanical lifting equipment isn’t an option, experience and technique make all the difference.
Our team recently relocated four flat-file art storage cabinets, each weighing approximately 200 kg. Restricted access and a challenging loading area meant the cabinets had to be carefully controlled and manoeuvred using specialist harnesses, heavy-duty straps and secure knot-tying techniques.
Project highlights:
1. Relocated four 200 kg flat-file art storage cabinets
2.Navigated narrow access and a difficult loading area
3.Used a hydraulic tail lift where access allowed
4.Used specialist harnessing and load-control techniques where mechanical equipment could not be used
5.Carefully strapped and secured each cabinet throughout the move
6.Positioned every cabinet precisely, without damage
7.Prioritised the safety of our team, the artwork storage equipment and the property at every stage
