Our PORTAGANTRY RAPIDE is available in a variety of height-adjustable frame sizes and beam lengths from 6' 6"-13' 1" this gantry crane offers a tremendous strength to weight ratio with the smallest unit weighing just 73lb, and 145lb for the largest.
The PORTAGANTRY RAPIDE has some great features which makes this system ideal for personnel lifting and fall protection applications. These include:
ANSI Z359.18-17 and OSHA compliant – The PORTAGANTRY RAPIDE has been tested and can provide an anchor point for up to two persons for fall protection applications.
Winch capable – The system is tailored to fit a wide range of winch brackets on either the trap plate or the upright. A sheave which can be located in between the cheek plates, enables the routing of the winch or fall arrest block cable through the underside of the beam onto a sheave carrier which would further route the cable to align above an opening, making the solution for confined space access applications.
One-piece aluminum construction – The PORTAGANTRY RAPIDE is an ultra lightweight one-piece aluminum foldable gantry crane which is designed for ease of transportation and assembly. The lightweight and foldable nature of the crane allows for the gantry to be assembled within a few minutes including accessories. You can watch our assembly video here.

Compatible with a range of accessories – Not only can this gantry support a range of winches and SRL’s but we offer a wide range of accessories such as gated trolleys which are tested for fall protection applications and can be used for attaching devices such as lanyards or retractable lifelines.
