At the refurbishment phase, Duggan Brothers approached us to assist with their access needs which were particularly challenging in this case. A small crane located in a courtyard was the only loading method available. Our typical loading decks would be much too large so the new Liftroller Wall was the obvious choice. This roller loading platform can be assembled and mounted through a window opening from inside the building.
