We’ve had a Pedestrian Operated Tower Crane in Ranelagh on a hire contract with one of our partners for some time.
The project is a residential development in the heart of one of Dublin’s busiest neighborhoods. This consists of the construction of four dwellings with a total of five car parking spaces. One of the residential units will be a three-storey five-bedroom over basement house. Ranelagh is one of the areas in Dublin that is most sought after by prospective buyers and renters.
The Pedestrian Operated Crane, a Potain HDT80, is ideal for a project in a busy area like this as it can be maneuvered on site with ease and provides a jib length of 40m with a maximum lift of 6,000kg at the tower and 1,250kg at the end of the jib.

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.
