Our range of cranes go from 800-tonne mobile and 11350 crawler cranes down to 3.5-tonne spider cranes that can fit in the tightest of spaces. These are used in a wide variety of both onshore and offshore industries, including the likes of the construction, oil, and wind energy sectors.

​

Gabriel O’Brien Crane Hire are available 24 hours a day and offer a comprehensive service, from our free site inspection right through to the execution of a lift; including detailed pre-planning, fully qualified operatives and an unrivalled attention to detail.

​

Across the process of each lift our engineering expertise shines through. After our site inspection we will go about putting a plan in place to carry out a lift both safely and efficiently. This plan includes RAMS (Risk Assessment Method Statement), 3D CAD drawings and the delegation of qualified personnel to carry out even the most difficult of lifts. Our staff are certified in both Ireland and the UK and equipped for manual handling and working at heights.
