Trolleys

Trolleys – Load Positioning and Beam-Mounted Lifting Solutions

Our trolleys collection includes a range of essential lifting accessories designed to support safe load positioning and controlled horizontal movement along overhead beams. These components are commonly used alongside hoists to create flexible lifting systems in industrial, workshop, and maintenance environments.

Trolleys and trolley clamps enable lifting equipment to be securely mounted to steel beams, allowing loads to be suspended, moved, and positioned accurately without the need for permanent structural installations. They are widely specified in factories, warehouses, engineering facilities, and plant rooms where overhead lifting capability is required.

Beam trolleys are designed to carry hoists and suspended loads along the length of an overhead beam. Available in both push-travel and geared configurations, trolleys provide smooth and controlled movement while maintaining load stability. They are suitable for applications where loads need to be repositioned frequently across a working area.

Trolleys are commonly selected based on:

• Safe working load capacity

• Beam width compatibility

• Travel method (push or geared)

• Integration with manual or powered hoists

FAQs

1. What are lifting trolleys used for?

Lifting trolleys are used to suspend hoists from overhead beams and allow loads to be moved horizontally. They are commonly used in workshops, warehouses, and industrial lifting systems.

2. What is the difference between a push trolley and a geared trolley?

A push trolley is moved manually by pushing the load, while a geared trolley uses a hand chain to move heavier loads more precisely and with greater control.

3. How do I choose the right trolley for my beam?

Beam width, beam profile, and load capacity must all be considered. Always ensure the trolley is compatible with both the beam and the hoist’s safe working load.
