There is, at present, a Mantis 35.10 Self Erecting Tower Crane at the Beneavin Care Home Project in Finglas, Dublin.
Self Erecting Tower Cranes, like the Mantis 35.10, are ideal for Care Home Projects due to the ease of siting, cost effectiveness and the increased site safety that they provide. We have placed many Pedestrian Operated Tower Cranes on projects likes this across Ireland and the United Kingdom.
This project involves the enlargement of the existing elderly nursing care facility known as Beneavin Lodge by the addition of three storeys of specialist care residential accommodation.
The Mantis 35.10 is configured to provide a 1,000kg maximum capacity load at the end of the 35m jib. Closer to the tower, and out as far as 12.05m on the jib, a maximum capacity load of 4,000kg can be accommodated. You can read more about this crane here.
As part of the enlargement minor alterations are being made to the dementia wing, which is already under construction. These alterations are designed to fully comply with the latest nursing home care standards as set out under HIQA accommodation guidelines and the requirements of the disability access legislation.

The Care Home Development Project includes access from the existing building entrance to the east of the site, the rehabilitation unit, hydrotherapy and physiotherapy departments. Additionally, at first floor level, a short term convalescent and respite care with en-suite bedroom accommodation, day space and a small cinema are planned to be added while the second floor level provision will be altered to provide for end of life palliative care suites with relatives rooms and support accommodation throughout all floors.

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.
