Double Girder Cranes: Maximise Your Lifting Potential<\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n

\r\n
\r\n

Our Double Girder Cranes are engineered for applications where lifting height, hook approach and duty push beyond the typical overhead crane brief. The double girder layout allows the hoist trolley to be packaged tightly into the available roof space, helping you achieve a higher top hook position and optimise side hook approaches, particularly where lift heights are large or the building envelope is restrictive. Where space above the runway is especially limited, a submerged trolley construction can be specified to protect lifting height.<\/p>\n

Street Crane is a leading manufacturer of Double Girder Cranes, fully stocked and shipped directly from our US distribution network for fast, local delivery of our premium, UK-engineered machinery<\/p>\n

Double girder cranes are engineered for higher-capacity lifting, with systems typically specified from 80 up to 250 tonnes depending on the support structure, site layout and application demands. For lighter overhead applications, our single girder cranes<\/a> offer a practical, dependable alternative. If your building calls for a suspended solution, our double girder underhung cranes<\/a> help make effective use of available space while supporting more demanding handling requirements.<\/p>\n

Our Double Girder range covers up to 80 tonnes with ZX electric wire rope hoists, and up to 250 tonnes with VX open winch hoists for the most demanding duties. Top running cranes can be configured with four or eight long travel wheels, and multiple trolley gauges are available to suit allowable wheel loads and the lifting height you need.<\/p>\n

Advantages of a Street double girder crane?<\/h2>\r\n
\r\n
\r\n Maximum lifting height and practical hook approaches: engineered around your headroom and approach requirements, with construction options to suit tight roof spaces. <\/div>\r\n
\r\n Built for lifetime performance: ZX and VX are designed around service-friendly layouts, proven braking philosophy and protection features that support uptime. <\/div>\r\n
\r\n High capacity with the right hoist platform: ZX covers heavy handling to 80 tonnes, VX open winch hoists extend to 250 tonnes for the highest loads and duty demands. <\/div>\r\n
\r\n Flexible options for demanding bays: double girder configurations support additions such as walkways, auxiliary hoists and special speed and control systems where required. <\/div>\r\n
\r\n Twin hoist and dual hoist systems DG cranes: deliver synchronised, stable lifting for long or awkward loads, ensuring balanced load distribution and smooth controlled turning. By coordinating two hoists, either independently or in coupled, load sharing mode these systems improve handling precision and enhance overall safety. <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n
\r\n

In summary, choosing a double girder crane over a single girder crane provides enhanced lifting capacity, greater stability, improved workspace utilisation, and long-term cost savings. Trust Street Crane to deliver high-quality double girder cranes that meet your specific needs and elevate your operational efficiency.<\/p>\n <\/div>\r\n \r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n\n
