Mantis Cranes Hire

Unique Feature of Self Erectors

A Self Erecting Tower Crane is a tower crane which arrives on site ready assembled but folded. Self Erecting tower cranes are predominantly operated through radio remote control, this leaves the operator free to move around the site and therefore maximize the efficiency of the equipment. Self Erecting Tower cranes can operate in very confined spaces, SETC footprint is approximately 4.5m x 4.5m

The Mantis Way

At Mantis Cranes we strive not only to meet customer expectations but to exceed them. Our consultative led sales process is tailored to each individual customer in order to meet their unique requirements.

We are certified with ISO 9001, OHSAS 18001 and ISO 14001 accreditation's, health and safety is at the core of all our operations. Mantis cranes also manufacture the cranes which provide us with expertise to assist and assurances of quality standards. The breadth of our expertise and geographical reach across the UK results that we are engaged in a broad range of project types ranging from the relatively small timber frame housing project or larger commercial build.

Our ethos at Mantis Cranes has been and remains that “we find the right crane for the job, not a job for the crane”.

Self erectors have steadily grown in popularity for a combination of factors such as speed and ease of installation, and the ability to fold back the Jib which offers a practical solution to over sail issues.
The Mantis approach is not simply about crane hire, Mantis provide expert advice which ranges from best location to place the crane onsite, right through to training and induction with crane to recommending accessories which utilize on-site operations.
