Thank you for visiting! We hope you have a great experience!
Chain Hoists; Manual, Electric, Air
Chain hoists are among the most widely used pieces of lifting equipment in the industry, essential for raising and lowering machinery, materials, or equipment. They operate by lifting loads vertically with a hook attached to a chain, which can be powered manually, electrically, pneumatically, or hydraulically.
Sometimes called chain blocks, these hoists can be customised for various lifting needs. They are offered in several different formats, including lever hoists (also known as a pull-lift/pul-lift or lever lifts), manual or hand chain hoists, electric chain hoists, air hoists (pneumatic-powered), and hydraulic hoists.
A chain hoist or chain block can serve as a permanent fixture for regular lifting tasks in the same area or as a temporary solution for occasional lifts at different locations. All our chain-type lifting hoists are designed to be easily attached to a beam trolley, which can either be manually operated or equipped with powered travel through electric, air, or hydraulic means.
The load is typically secured to the bottom of the chain via a lifting hook block, although some manufacturers now offer alternative hoist fittings such as clevis shackles and egg links.
Wire Rope Pulling Winches & Lifting Hoists
Here you’ll find a diverse selection of hoists designed to lift or pull loads using a wire rope.
There are two primary types of wire rope devices: those intended for both lifting and pulling (hoists) and those meant solely for pulling (winches). The key distinction lies in the safety factor required for their use. For lifting, a factor of safety (FOS) of 5:1 is necessary, while for pulling, a 3:1 FOS suffices.
We offer various options, including manual, electric, air-powered, and hydraulic cable-pulling and lifting devices, each with distinct features and specifications that may suit your needs better than others.
General Industrial Lifting Equipment
Probably one of the largest online ranges of general and specialist lifting equipment including; beam trolleys, all types of hoists, rigging equipment, beam/plate clamps, lifting magnets, pulley sheaves and lifting equipment identification tags/systems etc., from a vast array of suppliers and manufacturers across the world.
Rigging Gear; Riggers Lifting Equipment
LiftingSafety offers online in this category general lifting tackle used under the hook commonly referred to as "rigging and slinging equipment", used by the rigger to make the lifting process safe. Many users refer to the items contained within this category as lifting accessories or loose lifting gear.
Many of the items are also listed in other relevant categories within our online store, advertised here are Lifting Eye Bolts and Lifting Slings, Chain Fittings, Bow shackles and D-shackles and Crane Blocks. We sell quality rigging accessories from reputable manufacturers like Crosby, Hackett’s, McKissick etc.
Cranes; Mobile, Portable and Fixed
LiftingSafety offers an online selection of cranes and a great choice of standard and special manufactured options on most product lines.
There are portable, modular cranes that are movable with/without load or permanently installed cranes like overhead cranes (manual and fully powered) and light crane systems.
We offer standard-line lifting solutions with Atex certification (anti-sparking or spark-resistant features) and lightweight aluminium cranes, though generally the equipment can also be modified or more bespoke to suit customer requirements.
LiftingSafety lightweight aluminium A-frame gantry systems and davit arms offered online have excellent choices and are probably unrivalled online with the number of options and features available to buy.
Material Handling & Jacking Equipment
Manual handling equipment is designed to reduce the manual handling effort required and associated risk to the operator, to a minimum and you will find the range offered by LiftingSafety is vast. There are many subcategories of manual handling equipment available; they can be manually operated, electrically controlled, pneumatic (air-powered) or hydraulic-powered.
LiftingSafety offers a great range of lifting jacks as normally used to lift, lower and/or hold equipment, in numerous design styles to suit our customers jacking needs. Our jacks are manual or electrically operated and can be supplied with hydraulic or mechanical lifting.
Forklift Truck Attachments
Forklift attachments are items of lifting equipment classed as accessories (6-monthly thorough examination required), used in conjunction with a forklift truck to lift, carry, crane, push, pull, hold, dispense, rotate and clamp equipment to improve efficiency and assist or remove the manual handling effort or hazard of the user.
There are many items in many categories including roll forward skips, drum handling equipment, fork truck-mounted lifting jibs, booms and tines, fork extensions, scoops and snow ploughs.
We also offer a great selection of man-riding baskets (fork truck access baskets) used to gain access to areas, working at height. Most of the attachments we offer are manufactured in the UK by a factory with over half a decade of experience. We offer special and bespoke fork truck attachments and full technical assistance with expert manufacturing at hand.
Specialist Lifting Equipment
For most of the products in this category that we refer to as specialist application lifting equipment we probably also offer a similar or identical item in another category except it will be made from a different material or made to a different specification from normal industrial working environments. For example, the Atex subcategory contains many items that have generally been modified to work safely in potentially explosive areas; items like chain hoists and ratchet lever hoists are also offered without anti-sparking (spark-proof) modifications.
Other categories include ROV (remotely operated vehicle), subsea (underwater use) and stainless steel lifting equipment, most of which is also available made from other materials or without modifications for our industrial customers. Please feel free to contact our sales team if you need any assistance.
Access and Safety Related Equipment
LiftingSafety sells Portable access equipment used for many different types of work, including maintenance, access & egress and production processes.
Our working platforms are manually or electrically manoeuvred and lifted; our scaffold towers and ladders come in many different sizes and are easily and quickly assembled.
Load arrestors are a secondary-line piece of safety equipment that have been specifically designed to catch a falling load which will protect the materials being held or lifted and your building and personnel from a falling load.
Workshop and Shop Floor Equipment
In this category, we offer many items that don’t fall into any other category, though collectively they are just as important a group of products.
This is a very busy product group with our customers, including a range of hydraulic workshop presses/floor presses, tools and lifting jacks.
We also offer many items of garage equipment; items suitable for use in commercial vehicle garages.

Import and Export
We are both an importer and exporter of lifting equipment with a great deal of enquiries being from overseas customers. If you are a buyer from overseas you can be assured that we have the right product range and the knowledge and experience to deal with your enquiry – we are professional exporters!
Where possible, throughout liftingsafety.co.uk the listings of lifting gear and height safety equipment (fall arrest, rescue, restraint, rope access etc...) have been kept as simple and easy to use as possible, however, because of the vast range of equipment available in our online catalogue it is a challenge to get things in the right place. For this reason, some equipment may appear in more than one category.
What makes us different?
Our business is managed by lifting engineers, people who understand the product range and are able to comfortably offer further insight or advice on the items we have on offer; we are not simply a catalogue company! Our website is also managed by lifting engineers though uniquely we also employ our own in-house IT team who write, present, and develop this website. Our most important asset is our customers so when we designed, we looked at what the customer needed and not simply at what we presently had the technology to offer and therefore the online functionality and presentation were designed for the customers. LiftingSafety responds to our customer's technology requirements and constantly updates the web store with functions that improve and enhance the user experience.
Specialist Lifting Equipment
At Selby Engineering and Lifting Safety, specialist lifting solutions are being developed and added to our online catalogue constantly, on a weekly if not daily basis.
Having acknowledged that our lifting equipment website/shop is far superior to that offered by many of our competitors, we find ourselves being continually approached by lifting gear manufacturers, importers, stockists and designers to offer their lifting solutions and products on our website catalogue. This means that you, 'The End User' of lifting equipment have an excellent choice of available solutions; there is even a good chance that you can find your lifting solution simply by browsing our catalogue!
We will always offer you the most appropriate solution to your lifting requirement whether this involves more commonly required lifting units such as electric chain hoists or manual chain blocks for example, but we can also design, manufacture, test and certify other custom-built and/or special (bespoke) items of lifting equipment like lifting davits (davit arms), swing jib cranes and overhead cranes (offshore and explosion proof), of which, we can offer supply only or offer installation, testing and commission of your lifting equipment.
If you, the end user would like a specially designed piece of lifting equipment, Selby Engineering is always up to the challenge and will assist you in having your bespoke lifting solution designed and manufactured to suit your specific lifting and/or handling needs in the most efficient way possible. If you cannot find anything on our website that may be suitable for your application please get in touch and we will do our best to make it happen and with the fastest turnaround feasible.
Discounted Quotation
With almost all of the lifting equipment or fall arrest equipment listed throughout liftingsafety (including some of the more specialist units), we have the facility and ability to offer discounts on the majority of orders and quotes. To get a quote simply find the required product(s) and use the ' add to quote request' button and request a written quote from us, or you can call our office and speak to one of our dedicated team on UK 01977 684600 or overseas 0044 1977 684 600.
As it stands at the moment on liftingsafety we feel it couldn't be easier getting a quote for lifting or height safety equipment as every single product has a quantity box and quotation button, however, some products do not have every configuration of options available to select for quotation and at this point, you can input the specific requirements for the quotation in the comments box or call our sales office. The reason for some products not having the options configured is either because the range of that particular product is so huge it is not feasible to be configured online or because when the product was added we couldn't set the complete range of options available on that particular unit.
Lifting and Height Safety Quotes
All our lifting equipment and height safety products are available for quotation and all of which will receive a discount where possible when quoted by us. The majority of the products which we have within our online range either have a unit price or a guide price. If the price is displayed as a 'unit price', then this generally means that this price is current, this is the price which we will be working from when applying a discount to your quotation request. If the price is detailed as a guide price, then this generally means that this is a past price which may have expired or may have increased slightly due to materials costs or a manufacturer's annual price increase. This doesn't necessarily mean that this is the case, as in a good majority of instances we are still able to work from the guide price.
All quotation requests received by us are processed immediately or as quickly as is humanly possible by one of our team. If you need your quotation sooner or with a matter of urgency, feel free to contact our office where one of the dedicated specialists will be happy to assist you in getting the supplies that you need, when you need them.
Material Handling Equipment
For us at Selby Engineering, material handling equipment can cover the majority of our lifting goods too, however, we have segregated a few smaller more simplified categories which we feel are the most material-handling orientated. These are the following gears: Machinery Skates, Jacking Equipment, Pallet Handling and Stackers, Genie Lifts, Scissor Lift Tables, Platform Trucks/Trolleys and Cylinder Handling Equipment. They can all be accessed from the lifting equipment shop link at the top of every page.
We fully appreciate that finding the correct handling solution for your materials application is sometimes a daunting and challenging task, this is why we would like to reiterate, that if you need any assistance please feel free to contact us whenever it is a suitable time for you and you will be assisted as best as we possibly can to find the right solution to suit your needs.
