Swing Jib Cranes
Freestanding vertical post mounted Swing Jib Cranes in this category are either bolted to the floor or wall mounted. Cranes that bolt to the floor can be supplied with a small base plate for connection to a bespoke installed concrete foundation or with an oversized base plate for bolting to a customer's structurally suitable concrete floor. Wall mounted swing jib lifting cranes do not have the vertical post and so are bolted directly to a wall or horizontal steel structure.
Our swing jib cranes are for lifting materials only and not for lifting people.
All our swing jib cranes can be supplied complete with a hoist to suit your requirements. Please contact us for a quote. We look forward to receiving your enquiry.
A Jib Crane is an overhead crane that can be installed or be portable (movable). It can be floor-mounted, wall-mounted or even roof (ceiling) mounted and has a swinging arm (which may articulate) that cantilevers from the structural mounting point/pivot point. It can be manually rotated or electrically powered and can be fitted with lifting equipment as per your requirements, for example, with a manual chain block, electric hoist, air hoist or hydraulic hoist.
We can supply a standard range of jib cranes or bespoke jib crane designs. A swing jib crane provides a cost-effective lifting solution without taking up excess floor space.

All Swing Jib Cranes
A swing jib crane is also known as a lifting jib crane, a swing lift crane or even as a swing arm crane, swinging arm, floor or wall crane, and also as jib arm cranes. Jib cranes can be floor mounted, wall mounted or roof mounted, of which there are three main types of swing jib:
- Over braced design - Overhead triangular bracing to support the horizontal lifting arm.
- Underbraced design - usually used when the installation locaton is short of available height or headroom, slight loss of trolley travel.
- Articulating arm design - the vertical lifting arm has a knuckle joint in the middle of its length that works like an elbow joint, particually manoeuvrable though has a restricted range of safe working loads..
