Crane Man Box Hire also known as man buckets.

Our crane man boxes, also known as a crane work boxes are specifically designed for carrying personnel via crane to out of reach working areas. They can be used when scaffolding and elevated working platforms are not practical. We have them in a variety of sizes as shown below, ranging from a 4 man box, down to a single man box. They are available in both closed and open tops depending on your preference. They have forklift pockets and lifting lugs which enable easy maneuverability via forklift or crane. The doors are also inward opening only and self-closing with a latch to prevent unintentional opening during works. Each crane man box comes with the lifting chains, current engineers certificate and fit within the man cage regulations. It is important to know the difference between a crane man box and a first aid cage and this is explained here.
