Signage & Structural Installation Lifts

HTF Transport provides the crane behind sign installation. Totem signs, fascias, gantry elements and structural features are delivered to site and lifted into position for your installation team to fix.

Sign companies design, fabricate and fix; what they often need is a vehicle that can carry the sign and a crane that can present it accurately at height. Our HIABs do both: the sign travels on the vehicle that lifts it, and the operator works to your installation plan while your team completes the fixings.

Typical work includes monolith and totem signs stood onto their foundations, fascia and high-level signage presented to the building, and structural elements such as canopies, steel features and gateway structures.

All About Signage Installation Lifts

For more information on signage and structural installation lifts, please get in touch.

  • Do you install the signs yourselves?

    No, we deliver and lift. Your sign company or contractor completes the fixings while the crane presents the sign where they need it, working to their installation plan.

  • Can you stand a totem sign onto its base?

    Yes, that is classic HIAB work. The totem travels on the vehicle and is lifted upright onto its foundation bolts for your team to secure.

  • Can lifts happen out of trading hours?

    Yes. We run a 24 hour operation, so overnight and early morning lifts for retail and roadside locations are routine.

  • What else do you lift beside signs?

    Canopies, steel features, sculptures, gateway structures and other fabricated elements that need transporting to site and presenting accurately for fixing.

  • What details do you need to quote?

    The sign or structure dimensions and weight, how it will be fixed, where the vehicle can stand, and the working window for the site. Drawings and photos speed everything up.
