Tent Jacks

Due to the fact that some of our structures are side-lifted frames, we design and manufacture a jack to aid in their lifting. This not only helps to speed up the lifting process but adds to the safety and ease of the build up.

After the roof section of the frame has been assembled at ground level, the portable jacks are positioned next to the frame and the steel hook located around the frame's eave joint or purlin. By using the braked winch, the frame is hoisted to the required height for the easy attachment of the frame's legs. Once the legs are in position the winch is released and the jacks are removed. This is done the opposite way round to lower the frame down for dismantling.

As with all of Crockers' equipment, the tent jacks have been manufactured to a high safety specification and tested in accordance to all current legislation. All steel parts have been plated to eliminate rusting. Aluminium is used where possible to allow for easier handling and all the moving parts have been manufactured on needle-roller bearings to allow for smoother running and prolonged life.

We have provided our Tent Jacks to assist with lifting many different designs of marquees and high-domed frames. We can manufacture different lifting hooks or slings to suit your requirements.
