Crane Erected in Record Time

There are many companies putting themselves out there as a "turnkey" provider of tower cranes. When it comes to assembling contracts, you do have options in town. But when it comes to supplying, erecting, and operating the crane all from in-house, there is only one option in Seattle. That's Seattle Tower Crane. This weekend, the benefits of that played out with a great performance for our contractor.

In Everett, off Broadway, we were given the street closure at 8 AM. This put our Omega Morgan mobile crane on site and hook ready at 9 AM. We started swinging parts and installing the crane. 4 hours and 10 minutes later, the crane was up and the structure was finished. To help out our client and to keep from having to have a section of the job site closed on Monday, we pushed forward to install the ropes and load test the crane. The picture above is us load testing the crane at 4:30 PM on Saturday, after a 9 AM start.

The trick is great experience, and doing every single step you can prior to shipping the crane. Other turnkey providers have the same issues of suppliers and erectors having different interests, and sometimes different plans. We just want to perform. We'll do anything we can ahead of time to make that happen. Even if it means paying for an extra truck to make it quick, that's just what we do here at Seattle Tower Crane. In this case, we won't even charge the premium for the reeve and load test hours. That's just the level of our commitment to perform and to take advantage of not having anyone below us on the site.

If you want to experience the difference of full in-house service, we'll look forward to taking care of you on the next job. From foundation design, supply, erect, operate, supply of under the hook gear, through the loading of the building with our material hoists, Seattle Tower Crane is the one call you need to make.
