P Model Aluminum Gantry Crane

1,000 & 2,000 lb Capacity

P Model Aluminum Gantries

EC&MW, Inc. first introduced the concept of performing height adjustments from both the base and the I-beam in the mid-1990s. While this idea hasn’t gained widespread attention, it fills a unique niche.

Lightweight and Portable Design Gantry

The P Model Portable Aluminum Gantry Crane from EC&MW is a lightweight, adjustable lifting solution designed for technicians, maintenance crews, hospitals, utility rooms, manufacturing facilities, and other applications where space and portability matter.

Available in 1,000 lb and 2,000 lb lifting capacities, the P Model combines lightweight 6061-T6 structural aluminum construction with adjustable height, adjustable leg width, and rolling casters. Its compact design makes it an excellent choice when a traditional full-size gantry crane is too large or difficult to transport.

Expanded Height Adjustment

Unlike standard gantry cranes with limited adjustment options, our smaller model features more than five height adjustment holes, offering up to 29 inches of height variation and providing enhanced flexibility for various working environments.

Single-Person Assembly for Smaller Units

Smaller beam-length models can be assembled by one person, a task typically challenging with traditional A-frame gantry cranes. This makes our design a practical and efficient solution, especially in confined or solo-operator settings.

Optimized Clearance for Indoor Use

The crane offers 63 inches of clearance under the beam at its lowest setting, extending up to 92 inches at its maximum height. When paired with a 4-inch I-beam, the total beam height reaches 96 inches.

Hole spacing is strategically designed:

  • Base: 5 1/8 inches
  • I-beam: 4 ¾ inches

This setup minimizes interference with ceiling obstructions such as sprinklers, halon systems, and detectors, and even allows deployment on uneven floor levels.

Low Base Height for Portability

With a base height of just 34 inches, this crane is highly portable and ideal for spaces with limited vertical clearance.

Uses:

  • Service technicians
  • Small utility rooms
  • Hospitals
  • Anywhere a small portable gantry is required.

Our Small P Model Aluminum Gantry Fits in Most Vehicles

Our 2P88 has an optional unique cart assembly.  This includes the steering handle, cross bars, bungee cords, and clip pins.  This feature eliminates the need for several trips from the parking area to your work area.  Assembly is quick and easy.  The cart assembly also makes our gantry easy to store, by keeping all the components together.  Notice how extension tubes fit neatly inside the bases.  When using the gantry, the steering handle and all of the components fit in the bases, eliminating interference in your working area.

Our 2P89 and SB models gantries leave plenty of room for tools and spare parts in service mini vans.
