Hook Up Solutions came to us in search of some lifting equipment to help them install this spectacular spa. We were more than happy to oblige and provided them with the following products to get the job done: our Easy-Rig Lifting Beams & our 2 Tonne Round Slings.
Here's some more information about the project and the installation:
"Another interesting Lift & Shift challenge for the Hook-up Solutions crew this week, working alongside a team from New Dawn Pools and Ken Biggs Contractors, to transport and install a huge swim spa into a pool complex in Dorset.
"With the spa weighing in at 850kg and measuring 5.5m x 2.8m, it needed two Hooka cranes fitted with specialist ‘short-drop’ Lifting beams (supplied by SafetyLiftinGear) to be able to ‘limbo in’ under the buildings existing doorway and roof structures - before rotating the spa through 90° and lowering it into a recess alongside the main pool.
"Fortunately, the Hooka’s ability to both lift and transport payloads enabled the machines to carry out the operation smoothly and safely, whilst also easily trial-fitting and removing the spa several times - to allow it to be accurately ‘trimmed’ to perfectly match the recess area. Another risk-free install using the optimum machine and lifting equipment."
The equipment we provided:
This lightweight adjustable lifting beam is made of sturdy aluminium & can carry loads up to 1250kg. It features a centre eye lifting point and two shackle and latch hooks. This makes it ideal for lifting a wide range of items - just like our customer's spa!

If you're looking for a tough, hard-wearing reliable lifting sling, our 2 tonne round sling is ideal. All of the necessary information about the sling can be found directly on the sling, making it easy to use this equipment time and time again.
