Coastal environments don’t forgive poor planning and neither do we.
From shipyards to quaysides, our teams deliver specialist lifting solutions built for unpredictable weather, tight access, and fast‑moving operational windows.

Whether we’re supporting vessel maintenance, breakbulk cargo, or port infrastructure upgrades, every lift is engineered for stability, safety, and efficiency.

Not every project needs the biggest crane on the fleet.

The most effective solution is the one that's best suited to the site, the lift, and the programme.

Choosing the right equipment isn't about size; it's about understanding the challenge and delivering the most efficient solution for the job.

Two cranes. One lift.

Tandem lifting is one of the most carefully coordinated operations in the lifting industry. It's not simply about using two cranes instead of one; it's about making them work together as a single lifting solution.

Every movement is planned, every stage is coordinated, and communication between the lifting team is continuous from start to finish. It's a great example of how successful lifting relies on much more than equipment. It takes preparation, precision and an experienced team working together.

From stadium tours to one‑night spectaculars, our teams love stepping into the entertainment world; where precision, timing and seamless coordination matter just as much as they do on any major infrastructure project.

Behind every show-stopping performance is a huge amount of engineering, and King Lifting is proud to support production crews across the UK with the heavy lifting needed to construct and deconstruct stadium staging safely and efficiently.

Whether it’s raising towering stage structures, positioning lighting rigs, or supporting complex load‑in/load‑out schedules, our specialist crews bring the same focus, planning and safety-first mindset that define all our operations.

Teamwork, precision and a very big lift. 💪

Our team has been hard at work in Midsomer Norton, supporting Wessex Water’s major flood‑prevention and environmental protection scheme at Wellow Brook.

To kick things off, we safely lifted an excavator and additional equipment across the brook — a complex operation delivered through detailed planning, expert coordination and safety-first ex*****on.

Technology has transformed the lifting industry over the last 40 years. Equipment is more advanced. Planning tools are more sophisticated. Projects are more complex.

But one thing hasn't changed; Experience still matters.

Knowing how to adapt, solve problems, and make the right decisions on site is something that comes from years of working across every kind of project imaginable.

The Liebherr LTM1060 3.1 was out in force last month, on CPA hire to our client ES Global, where we supported the build of the Henley Festival staging. Over the 5 days, it saw Lulu, Sugababes, Jo Whiley, Boy George and more perform on it!

A tight build schedule on the riverbank, demanded precision, reliability and a crane that could deliver serious performance in a compact footprint. The LTM1060 3.1 stepped up beautifully.

What we delivered:
• CPA crane hire with full lift planning support
• Smooth installation of staging structures for one of the UK’s most distinctive arts festivals
• A seamless collaboration with the brilliant ES Global team

Henley Festival is known for transforming the riverside into a world class cultural space. Behind the scenes, it takes trusted engineering partners to make that magic happen and we’re proud to have played our part.
