Cranes
Since opening our doors in 1923, Gillespie Corporation has been designing and manufacturing a comprehensive range of custom manual and electric cranes for commercial, industrial, and institutional applications. In fact, when Robert Gillespie founded the company, its sole focus was the design and manufacture of cranes. That legacy of engineering excellence continues today, with every crane built to meet the specific needs of each customer and application.
Engineered to meet the unique requirements of each project, our cranes can be configured for rooftop- or wall-mounted installations and are built to provide safe, reliable lifting in environments where standard equipment may not be suitable. They are commonly used to lift and position HVAC equipment, mechanical systems, building materials, and other heavy machinery during construction, maintenance, equipment replacement, and facility operations.
Our custom crane solutions are designed for long-term performance, ease of operation, and seamless integration with the surrounding structure. Whether the application requires a compact wall-mounted jib crane, a rooftop lifting system, or another specialized configuration, Gillespie works closely with architects, engineers, contractors, and building owners to deliver equipment that meets both operational requirements and site constraints.
For more than 100 years, customers have trusted Gillespie to solve complex lifting challenges through practical engineering, quality craftsmanship, and dependable performance. Our crane systems have been installed at retail stores, commercial buildings, healthcare facilities, educational institutions, and industrial sites throughout North America. Notable end users include major retailers such as Dillard's and Target, as well as the United States Postal Service, among many other organizations that rely on durable, custom-engineered lifting solutions.
