Forklift Mounted Man Cage / Riding Baskets / Landing Platform

 

Forklift Mounted Man-riding and access platforms are used to lift one or two people up to a raised working area, where it might be impractical, unsuitable or unsafe to use a ladder or cherry picker.

 

All of our baskets are load rated to check they can also be used in the transportation and/or raising of raw materials to the working area.

 

Note: It is important that when working from height, the appropriate safety measures are in place for all people on the access platform, such as fall protection equipment in order to comply with Working from Height Regulations.

 

Environment and Waste Handling Attachments

 

Another key forklift attachment most businesses require are those that remove waste from the manufacturing area, such as wood, bricks or rubble. Our range of roll forward tipping skips are the perfect waste handling equipment for this job.

 

Our range also includes tipping bin type stillages which empty at the base, rather than tipping the load out of the skip. We also have available semi-stainless and stainless steel tipping skips designed primarily for use in the food or chemical industry, where there is greater emphasis on cleanliness and hygiene, or issues such as corrosive or hazardous liquids being used.

 

Forklift Truck Mounted Drum Handling Attachments

 

A drum attachment is a very handy piece of equipment when drums need to be transported frequently. All of our drum attachments slide onto the fork lift truck and they are fixed by a bolting mechanism. There are drum attachments available to transport and/or tilt or empty the drum.

 

There are four main types of drum in use by industry today and there are a wide variety of drum attachments to suit all drum sizes. Our drum attachments can be either carriage mounted, or crane slung. A carriage mounted forklift drum attachment means it takes the place of the fork tines on the fork truck whereas crane slung means it can be lifted from the top with the use of a hook and lifting device such as a crane or forklift truck with a lifting hook.

 

Fork Mounted Jib and Hook Attachments

 

Forklift jibs turn a standard forklift truck into a crane with lifting capabilities. They are designed to fit onto the tines of your truck so are available in a number of different sizes.

 

These attachments differ from the previous ones as a fork mounted jib or hook is used to lift the load from the top, rather than below. This is for instances where the fork times cannot fit under the load.

 

Here at Ridgeway, we have a wide variety of jbs and hooks available from low profile to higher profile depending on how high you need to lift an object up. We also have telescopic and extendable fork mounted jibs which can add an extra bit of reach when needed and can be compacted / retracted when not in use to save on space.

 

All of our jibs are available as carriage or fork mounted depending on the application required. Single tine hooks can also be useful to slide and lock onto a fork tine to turn it into a lifting hook, which can also be removed when not in use.

 

Why choose us?

 

Here at Ridgeway Manufacturing, we have a long standing ethos for affordable quality and as a result we have supplied to businesses in the UK and export markets. We have supplied to businesses in many different industries, including metal, glass, paper and wood through to food, chemical and toxic waste disposal.

 

Our products are manufactured at one central location, using a variety of processes including CAD, steel cutting, bending, welding, painting and testing so we have direct control over the quality and cost of our products. It also means for our bespoke solutions, we can liaise with customers throughout the entire process from design, to manufacture of prototypes, right the way through to manufacture of the finished product. 

 

As part of our design process and to ensure we meet your exact requirements, our design team will visit you at your premises in order to evaluate your needs and material handling requirements, before proceeding with manufacturing them.

 

We manufacture all of our attachments at our modern 30,000 sq ft manufacturing facility which is based in the heart of the West Midlands. Our products are all CE marked and are built to the highest European standards and comply with all current legislation. Our facilities include:

 

  • SOLIDWORKS CAD Design
