What is a Standard Door Gantry?
A “standard door gantry” is a type of gantry crane designed to be able to pass through standard doorways while loaded. The A Frame gantries are typically designed with legs that retract or have a specific width to ensure they can fit through typical doorways.
Portable Gantries That Fit Through Doorways
EC&MW builds standard design aluminum gantries, as well as custom models. This particular gantry crane falls somewhere in the middle.
We manufacture our portable gantry crane with removable legs, which is a unique design. It combines both a removable leg and a standard A Frame model, and can be built to the customer’s specific requirements. Our standard door portable gantry crane comes in a 1, 2, and 3,000 lb capacities. The 2,000 lb cap model can fit through a standard 3-0 door. Our 10’ long 6” I Beam has a top of beam height of only 78”.
The best part, it’s also capable of 9’ maximum height under the beam. This model was originally designed for riggers and electronic firms to move extremely heavy test equipment from one room to another.

Perfect Gantry for Rigging Companies
These gantries were designed to be rolled through standard door ways while loaded. The base legs in the fully retracted position have over all width and lengths from 32″ to 35 1/2″ depending upon model. Minimum over all height to top of beam can be as little as 60″, again depending upon models and capacity. So as not to exceed the height to width ratio required for gantry manufacturing, there is recessed labeling indicating on all the expendable legs that indicate the maximum allowed height for that particular leg setting (shown in the picture to the right). This design will allow you to move your projects from one test cell to another or from one environmental lab/clean room to another.
