At the beginning of August we placed a Self Erecting Crane at Maynooth University for an initial hire period of three months.
The Pedestrian Operated Tower Crane is a Mantis 35.10, manufactured at our plant in Co, Donegal. It can provide a maximum capacity lift of 1,000kg to 34m. This, by far, the most popular crane on our hire fleet in Ireland.
Our client is using the Mantis 35.10 on a restoration project at St Mary’s House on the Maynooth University campus.

A tower crane rising above a site tends to draw every eye, but the real story starts long before it arrives on site. It's this quiet groundwork that sets the stage for everything that follows.
Tower cranes are one of the most efficient lifting solutions available on construction sites, offering exceptional height, reach, and lifting capacity that few other machines can match. Unlike mobile cranes, they occupy a small footprint while still serving the entire site, making them ideal for congested urban locations.
Mantis Cranes had two brilliant days at ICE Expo 2026, and what an event it was. Held at Punchestown Racecourse, Ireland's biggest construction and plant machinery expo delivered on every front with record attendance, a buzzing atmosphere, and an incredible line-up of live machinery demonstrations and industry innovation all in the one space.
