Case Study

HIAB Crane Hire for AC Unit Installation in Edinburgh

Marine Plant Hire Scotland provided HIAB lifting support for three AC/AHU units being installed into a retail outlet on Rose Street, Edinburgh.

Rose Street Edinburgh city centre
3 Lifts AC/AHU units
PK6501 Palfinger HIAB
RAMS Planned lift support

The Brief

The client required three AC/AHU units to be lifted into a louvred opening at a retail premises in Edinburgh city centre. Access was restricted due to the narrow streets around Rose Street.

MPHS Scope

  • Site access review
  • HIAB lifting support
  • RAMS preparation
  • Three controlled lifts
  • City-centre lifting setup
  • Completion and demobilisation

The client’s larger crane options were unsuitable for the access constraints, so our smaller HIAB setup was selected to complete the lifts safely and efficiently.

Project Delivery

1. Access Planning The job required a compact lifting solution suitable for the narrow city-centre street and retail access restrictions.
2. HIAB Setup Our HIAB vehicle with Palfinger PK6501 crane was positioned to carry out the lifts while keeping the setup practical for the location.
3. Controlled Lifts Three AC/AHU units were lifted into position through the louvred opening, with the works completed smoothly.

Result

The three lifts were completed successfully, the units were installed into position, and the client was happy with the outcome.
