Hoist & Crane Equipment
Midwest Leader in Overhead Solutions
Is Aging Crane Technology Costing You?
Our experienced team can provide pre-sale support insuring hoists and cranes are installed properly for safe and effective operations.
Whether you need a single hoist for your operations or need dozens of large structures across your operations, we will identify and install the right overhead lifting device for you.
As technology and processes change, so do your material handling needs.
Hoist & Crane Modernization
As your business changes, so does technology and the demands placed on your crane equipment. Since your overhead crane was first built, safety regulations and production requirements have probably changed. Our technicians can breathe new life into older units instead of having to replace them.
Hoist & Crane Installation
When you are ready to move from concept to design to installation, our team can assure that your crane installation happens safely and on time. Need to modify or relocate a crane to support a new application? We’ll ensure everything is functioning properly and up to safety standards, so you can quickly get operations going.
Inspections & Service
We provide maintenance, inspections, repairs and parts for all major manufacturers of industrial cranes and hoists - whether you have single piece of equipment or an entire operation, we can help improve the safety and productivity of your operations. With our team of highly trained technicians, we will ensure that your overhead equipment is in proper working order and minimize down time.
Below the Hook Device
Sometimes using a wire rope, nylon or chain sling is not the best tool for the job. Riekes offers slings, as well as custom built below-the-hook (BTH) devices used to safely move items like uniquely-shaped materials and long loads that do not offer a good place to attach a load hook.
Fall Protection
Falls are among the most common causes of serious work-related injuries and deaths. Providing fall protection is required by OSHA and is a reliable and cost-effective solution for reducing the risk of injury and maintaining a safe work environment.
Hoist & Crane Products
Whether you need bridge cranes, gantries, hoists, jibs, monorails, slings or even fall protection, we can help with your crane equipment.
