Originally designed for use on boats, a davit is a small crane that enables the safe lowering of heavy equipment and personnel, which can also be deployed over the side of tall buildings.

The latest introduction from the sought-after REID Lifting range, the TDavit is a super lightweight and portable lifting solution that can be custom designed to meet your individual requirements.

A truly pioneering piece of engineering, the TDavit boasts an excellent (up to) 600kg goods capacity, and a personnel lifting capacity of up to 300kg (fall arrest up to 1 person), that can be rotated a full 360° when under the stress of a full load.

Ideal for tasks in confined space access, an extensive range of column heights and beam options are available, meaning that regardless of your scenario, there is a TDavit just for you.

How to specify a TDavit

The flexibility of the TDavit range is unrivalled, so here’s how to specify your requirements:

Select a beam option from the table based on the radius you require. Each TDavit has two radius options A or B which is determined by the beam position (refer to dimensional drawing on specification tab)

*Be aware that larger radius beams reduce the working load limit of the TDavit

Select your column option from the dimensional table based on the height of lift you require. Column option 1 is the shortest standard column and option 5 is the tallest.

Should you need a greater height of lift, you can add a pedestal or socket extension, subject to restrictions.
