REID Lifting helps improve working practices at the National Trust for Scotland’s Culzean Castle and Country Park Stonemasonry
Following an order for a Porta-Gantry 2000 for use in their stonemasons yard, the
National Trust for Scotland undertook formal training in the Assembly, Operating and Maintenance of their new lightweight, portable lifting system from Reid Lifting, to make sure they made the most from their investment and ensured maximum safe use. They also identified improved working practices and alternative uses and are about to order REID’s “Wind Up Jack Legs” option to allow them to safely use the lifting system on uneven ground.
Rob Bligh, Technical Sales Engineer at REID Lifting said: “It was an absolute pleasure running training in such a beautiful and tranquil environment, with people and an organization that do such important work and are keen to get the most from the PORTA-GANTRY system. I’m glad they enjoyed the session and got so much out of it.”
Justin Egerton, the Stonemason at the National Trust for Scotland’s
Culzean Castle and Country Park said: “Many thanks for all your help, we were able to start using the gantry yesterday and are delighted with the difference it has already made to our working practices.”
