Reid Lifting Porta Gantry Rapide 500kg SWL – Portable Aluminium Gantry System
Maximise your operational efficiency and safety with the Reid Lifting Porta Gantry Rapide 500kg SWL. This high-capacity, ultra-portable aluminium gantry system is engineered for heavy-duty lifting, critical confined space access, complex rescue operations, and general materials handling in demanding environments across the UK.
Engineered for Heavy Loads & Rapid Deployment: The Porta Gantry Rapide 500kg represents the pinnacle of portable lifting, offering an impressive 500kg Safe Working Load (SWL) for goods. Despite its robust capacity, it maintains the renowned rapid assembly of the Rapide series – a single person can still erect or dismantle the system in approximately 60 seconds, completely tool-free. This ensures minimal downtime, swift response to critical situations, and unparalleled operational flexibility. Its lightweight, high-strength anodised marine-grade aluminium construction, combined with integrated folding wheels and convenient carry straps, guarantees effortless transportation, even over challenging terrain or through restricted access points.
Unrivalled Versatility and Superior Safety: Beyond its substantial 500kg goods lifting capacity, this gantry is also certified for personnel lifting (up to 250kg) and provides robust fall arrest protection for up to three users. This multifaceted capability makes it an indispensable asset for diverse applications, from high-stakes confined space entry and retrieval to demanding industrial maintenance and heavy equipment handling. The anodised marine-grade aluminium construction offers exceptional corrosion resistance, ensuring long-term durability and reliable performance in the harshest conditions, including ATEX Zone 2 areas (with a Zone 1 upgrade available for specific hazardous environments).
