A track hoist, sometimes know as a ceiling track hoist is an overhead hoisting system. Some are fitted to the ceiling or wall but others, known as gantry hoists, are fitted on a portable track.
What is a Gantry Hoist?
Gantry hoists are mobile floor standing frame with an electrically powered hoisting unit attach.
NB. We do not provide training on the use of a patient hoist, nor the application of a sling. A user manual is provided with the hoist but it is anticipated that you will already know how to operate a patient hoist. If you have not used a hoist before, or have any concerns regards hiring this equipment you should speak to your healthcare team first.

How does a Gantry Hoist work?
This track hoist offers a lifting and transfer method for those who require an overhead hoist system, but do not want something permanently attached to their wall or ceiling. Can be used as a temporary or permanent hoisting solution. This gantry hoist has a lifting capacity of up to 200kg.
These hoists provide an excellent way to transfer a person with limited mobility without putting un-necessary strain or stress on the carer or person being moved.
Can I use a Gantry Hoist in the home?
Yes. These rental gantry hoists are an ideal solution for those who may only need to hire one for a few weeks. This is because they do not have to permanently be attached to the wall like other hoists. They can also be used in other care environments such as care homes and hospital facilities.
