Platform Hoists
Platform Hoists are perfect for residential and small-scale commercial solar installations. These ladder-style hoists allow you to easily lift solar panels, racking systems, and installation tools directly to the roof. Designed for speed and convenience, platform hoists can reduce manual labor, enhance productivity, and minimize the risk of injury by keeping workers off ladders with heavy loads. They provide an optimal solution for safely delivering materials to roofs, whether for new installations or maintenance work.
Swing Hoists
For larger, multi-story buildings or commercial projects, the Swing Hoist is the ideal solution. Capable of lifting heavier solar equipment and materials—up to a ton in weight—and reaching heights of up to 700 feet, this hoist is engineered to handle the demands of larger-scale solar installations. The swing motion provides precise material placement, even in tight or awkward spaces, making it easier to navigate complex building layouts where cranes or other large machinery might not fit.
