WHY APPI:

P & M Mechanical, Inc. faced a specific challenge in their construction project: efficiently and safely transporting materials and mechanical units between ground level and rooftop. With precise requirements outlined in their project specifications, they needed a reliable solution that would meet these exacting standards.

Terry Wideman, President of P & M Mechanical, Inc., explains their collaborative approach: “We had a project that spec’d out using a hoist and davit crane to raise and lower construction materials and mechanical units between the ground and roof levels. We called Allied Power Products, Inc. and after some application discussions, we were comfortable with anticipated performance and we moved forward with purchasing their 500 lb. davit crane and HD670 AC electric hoist.”

Through consultative discussions, P & M Mechanical determined that the Columbia rooftop crane and hoist system would provide the optimal solution for their specific needs.

Key features of this solution include:

  1. High line capacity suitable for construction materials
  2. Superior line speed for efficient material transport
  3. Compact, roof-friendly design with secure pedestal mounting
  4. Reliable performance in demanding construction environments

According to Wideman, the construction project has progressed well, with the Columbia rooftop crane and hoist proving “well suited for safely and efficiently bringing materials to the rooftop construction area.”
