Hird mini crane stars at celebrity launch party

Hird’s range of mini cranes, powered access machines and glass handling equipment raises celebrity smiles at an open day held by a customer.
Guests who gathered at the launch of our customer’s new showroom included top TV architect George Clarke, consumer affairs journalist and TV presenter Dominic Littlewood and quiz show host Les Dennis.

Hird Director John Wilding said:

“We were delighted to be invited by our customer to join them at their open day. The company uses Hird mini cranes and glass handling equipment to fit their products, and we were only too happy to contribute to a very enjoyable day.

“This was a great opportunity for us to show the range of equipment we can offer, for hire and for sale. Being able to meet industry experts like George Clarke and Dominic Littlewood was a real bonus.

“Our customer takes pride in providing a consistently excellent service and part of that is fitting their high quality building systems using the best, most efficient and safest mini-cranes and glass handling equipment on the market.”

Hird equipment on display included:

  • The Valla 20 E electric-powered pick and carry crane with its 2,000kg lifting capacity and electronic load indicator
  • The crane was fitted with the DSZ2 vacuum lifter, the UK’s slimmest vacuum lifter, but capable of lifting 750kg
  • Geko PV Glaslift glazing robot, idea for handling composite and unitised windows
  • UNIC 295 spider crane, our most popular mini crane – with remote control operation and safe load indicator
  • Big Foot 280 counterbalance floor crane, perfect for fitting office, showroom or shop front glazing

Hird mini crane, powered access machines and glass lifting equipment is available for hire or sale throughout the UK, from our Southern Depot, covering London and the south, Central Depot in Doncaster and our Northern Depot and 
head office in Hull, Yorkshire.
