  • “We've built a relationship based on trust & experience with Gatwick Group, meaning that we are happy to hand every aspect of the installation or removal of our passenger boarding bridges over to them. Their expertise & initiative has been crucial to our success.”

    Amador Dominguez, Project Mgr
  • “The whole of the T5C Gallows Installation project at Heathrow was a success. Many thanks for your help, guidance and professional service. We will most certainly use Gatwick Group again.”

    Steve Harvey, Contract Manager
  • “It is a welcome change to work with a company who proactively offer solutions to challenges, rather than just seeing them as an obstacle to completing the work ahead.”

    Steven Brown, Airports Manager
  • “Network Rail have a need to get Rail Lengths or S&C gear moved at very little or no notice at all , and I can be confident that you always find a way at short notice with your ‘can do-will do’ attitude.”

    Nick Murphy, Plant Co-ordinator
  • “It is rare to see companies working to the modern H&S rules. As a site manager I am forever battling with companies who turn up ill equipped to carry out their works. It is a breath of fresh air to see such a professional attitude to a job and to see the correct equipment used for the task in hand. Keep up the good work.”

    Chris Croxford, Site Manager
  • “You consistently deliver on our routine jobs, but I can also rely on you to come up with solutions to our more unusual requirements that present us with challenges, as well as stepping in at short notice to salvage jobs when we have experienced difficulties in the past.”

    Sandra Grinnol, Hire Fleet Mgr
  • “I am writing to pass on my personal congratulations and thanks for a job well done by the team over the weekend. As expected everything was executed in a thoroughly professional, planned and safe way and it was a pleasure to behold. I look forward to an equally successful and on going relationship through to completion of this project and beyond.”

    Eugene McQuaid, Project Mgr

Crane Hire or Contract Lift

We realise that our Hiab’s will never replace cranes but never the less we are still involved in some major lifting operations, and for this reason we operate within the guidelines of BS7121 Part 3 and comply with all the requirements of normal cranes. We often hire cranes in to work within our Contract Lifts and produce and manage the complete project.

However the added advantages of using our Hiab’s is the fact that only one vehicle is required to transport the goods to site and carry out the lifting operations. This reduces the space required to carry out the lift and also means that transport and crane hire are from one supplier so there’s no worry about abortive crane costs if the trucks are delayed.

Our fully trained “Appointed Person” will visit you to carry out a free on site survey to asses your particular site risks. We will then produce a site specific Risk Assessment, an acceptable Method Statement and Lift Plan to carry out the work. We will involve you every step of the way to ensure you are totally happy with our proposals and will discuss and implement any changes in the plan before work commences.

Every detail and every document will be reviewed by our team of appointed persons to ensure we have covered all eventualities. The final document will not be produced until we are completely satisfied that we have a safe procedure in place.

On the day of the job every team member will receive an on site briefing before work commences to ensure they know exactly what part they will play in the operation. You will notice the quality of Gatwick Plant by the fact that when the lift starts it will be carried out in complete silence.

Each time you entrust us with your work we undertake a commitment to you to deliver a risk free and quality job time after time to ensure that Gatwick Plant are always your first choice.
