When it comes to installing overhead cranes, precision and performance are only part of the equation — safety is the foundation of it all. At Overhead Crane Solutions, every install begins with a detailed safety plan and ends with a job well done, not just structurally, but safely.

This photo captures one of our technicians performing hot work during a recent crane installation. Elevated in a scissor lift, properly harnessed, and fully equipped with PPE, he’s welding a key structural component in place — a process that demands focus, training, and respect for the hazards involved.

🚧 What Makes Hot Work So High Risk?

Hot work, such as welding, cutting, or grinding, creates sparks and high heat — both of which can be dangerous in an industrial setting. Add in working at height, and you’ve got a serious safety challenge. That’s why our technicians are:

• Certified and experienced in welding and elevated work

• Outfitted with proper PPE, including welding helmets, gloves, and harnesses

• Trained in fire watch protocols and emergency procedures

• Backed by detailed formal hazard assessments (FHAs) for every project

🛠️ Safety is Not Optional — It’s Our Standard

We don’t cut corners. Our team follows strict protocols and adheres to OH&S regulations to ensure every job is completed without incident. From scissor lift checks to fire safety measures, every step is double-checked and documented.

💬 Why It Matters

A poorly managed crane install isn’t just a risk to property — it’s a risk to lives. We take that seriously, and it’s why so many businesses across Western Canada trust Overhead Crane Solutions for their installs, inspections, and repairs.
