Lifting Equipment
Liftroller Crane portable gantry crane
The Liftroller Crane is a lightweight aluminium mobile travelling crane designed to be used inside a building. It weighs 150 kg, comes apart into pieces that can be carried to the floor you need, and runs on four spring-loaded castors that settle onto fixed feet as soon as a load is picked up.

What the Liftroller Crane does
Most cranes cannot get inside a finished building. This one is aluminium, weighs 150 kg all up, and breaks into parts a crew can carry up a stairwell and assemble on the floor where the lift has to happen.
The four castors are spring-loaded, which is a neater piece of engineering than it sounds. It rolls freely while empty, and the moment it takes a load the springs compress and the feet settle onto the floor, so it is not standing on wheels while it is lifting.
The trolley takes a universal fitting, so it accepts an electric winch or a manual chain hoist depending on what you have. It does not require a certified installer to put together.
How it works on site
- 1
Carry the parts up
150 kg total, in aluminium sections. It also travels to site on a Euro pallet.
- 2
Assemble on the floor
No certified installer required. Your own crew can put it together and dismantle it.
- 3
Wheel it into position
The castors let one or two people move it to where the lift is needed.
- 4
Fit your hoist and lift
Universal trolley fitting takes an electric winch or a manual chain hoist. As the load comes on, the castors give and the feet take the weight.
What it lifts
A light crane for the lifts that happen inside a building, where a mobile crane will never reach.
- Big bags and awkward loads off a landing platform
- Pallets lifted from a deck onto trestles
- Pumps, tanks and plant room equipment
- Anything needing a chain hoist in a confined space

Where it is used
Lifting off a loading platform
Take big bags and awkward loads off a Liftroller Wall when they will not simply roll.
Onto trestles
Pair it with a Liftroller Floor to lift pallets off the deck and set them at working height.
Plant rooms
Positioning pumps, tanks and switchgear in spaces a mobile crane will never reach.
Low ceilings
It works under 2,200 mm, which rules in most residential and commercial floor-to-ceiling heights.

Working out whether it pays
The Crane's case is that the alternative often does not exist. If a lift has to happen on the fourth floor of a finished building, the options are limited.
Labour hours on material handling
Count the people and the hours currently spent carrying, and what those hours are worth on your rates. This is usually the biggest line by a distance.
Crane and hoist time
Every lift to ground level that then has to be moved again is a lift you paid for twice. Landing on the floor removes the second handling.
The goods lift
If materials are going up in the lift, other trades are waiting for it. Freeing the lift has a programme cost attached that rarely gets counted.
Rigging and ground space
External hoists and scaffold bays need somewhere to stand and something to tie to. On a tight site that space has a real cost, or does not exist at all.
Damage and rework
Carried materials get dropped, scuffed and cornered. Sheets rolling on a level bed do not.
Injury and lost time
Manual handling is one of the largest causes of lost-time injury in Australian construction. Fewer carried loads is fewer chances for a back injury on your job.
Tell us the lift, the floor and the ceiling height and we will confirm whether it is the right tool.
Common questions
It is a portable aluminium gantry crane for use inside buildings. It weighs 150 kg, disassembles for carrying between floors, and runs on spring-loaded castors that settle onto fixed feet under load.
From 1.5 metres to 3 metres. Other sizes can be made to order.
No. It does not require a certified installer and can be assembled by the user. Operating a hoist and slinging loads still needs the right competencies, so check your own site requirements.
The trolley has a universal fitting that suits both electric winches and manual chain hoists.
A minimum of 2,200 mm floor to ceiling.
It is designed to be positioned empty and then lift. The spring-loaded castors compress under load so the feet sit firm on the floor rather than the crane standing on its wheels.
