Hoist Delivery Options

Premium Home Delivery & Setup

Our premium "white-glove" service provides ultimate peace of mind. A specialist team will deliver your new hoist to your room of choice, provide full professional assembly, and ensure the equipment is fully tested, charged, and ready for safe immediate use. We also remove all bulky packaging for you, leaving your home tidy. Please allow 7-14 working days for this specialist service. Note: If you live in a remote or offshore area, please contact us before ordering to confirm availability.

FREE Delivery

This is a standard delivery of large or bulky items to the main entrance (front door) of your home or building, delivered within 2-3 working days. Your hoist will arrive securely packaged, typically in a heavy-duty box or on a pallet, depending on the model. While our drivers will always endeavour to deliver to your door, please note that if access is restricted, delivery will be made to the kerbside or the nearest accessible point. As this is a doorstep service, you will be responsible for bringing the item inside, unpacking the hoist, and completing basic self-assembly (such as securing the mast to the base, connecting the actuator, and plugging in the battery) using the instructions provided.

Room of Choice Delivery

A two-person delivery service that takes the heavy lifting out of your hands. We will carry your hoist to any room you choose and remove all packaging material for you. This service is delivered within 2-3 working days. (Note: This option includes delivery to your room and packaging removal, but does not include professional assembly. You will need to assemble the hoist components, connect the electronics, and ensure it is safe to use yourself).

Click & Collect (Garstang Showroom)

Skip the shipping costs and pick up your hoist directly from our Garstang showroom (15 minutes from Lancaster, 25 minutes from Blackpool). Most orders are ready for collection within 1-3 business hours. Your hoist will be fully prepared, checked, and safety-tested by our specialist team to ensure it is ready for immediate use. Our staff will be on hand to guide you through the controls and offer advice on operation and battery care. Please ensure your vehicle is large enough to transport the hoist; many models can be folded down or dismantled into major components for easier loading.

Detailed description

This Castor Gantry Hoist is a freestanding lifting gantry designed for situations where a ceiling-mounted hoist is not practical. The frame is built from lightweight aluminium so it remains manageable to move and store while still providing a reliable structure for transfers. Its compact and discreet design means it fits comfortably into both home and clinical spaces without dominating the room.

Height adjustment is straightforward thanks to the locking handles and seven height settings spaced 75 mm apart, giving a useful range from floor to ceiling. The gantry provides a lifting range of 1920 mm to 2270 mm, and the total height adjusts between 2000 mm and 2440 mm, so you can match the setup to the user and environment. For safe operation, the gantry is rated to a Safe Working Load of 300 kg.

Assembly and relocation are simple because the gantry uses tool-free assembly, allowing carers or staff to set it up without specialist tools. Castors make it easy to move when empty, and it disassembles quickly for storage or transport. The system is intended for use with the RiseBasic 440 lifting unit, which is required for lifting functionality and sold separately.

This gantry is intended for occasional or temporary lift needs and offers a practical alternative to permanent track installations. It provides a stable platform for transfers and adapts to different users and rooms through its adjustable width and height options, helping you keep the focus on safe and comfortable handling.
