Clear instructions matter when lifting heavy loads, yet with traditional test weights basic handling guidance is often missing entirely or left back in a site office. We have addressed this with a simple addition to every weight we hire – a durable metal tag carrying a QR code that links straight to handling instructions.
How it works
Each weight carries its own tag, fixed to withstand the conditions our weights work in. Scan the QR code with any smartphone camera and a PDF with handling instructions opens immediately – no paperwork to track down, no relying on memory from an induction days or weeks earlier.
Why this matters on site
Having handling guidance available at the point of lifting, rather than back in an office or van, means there is never any doubt about how a weight should be handled – even for a team using our weights for the first time.
A simple system, properly thought through
It is a small detail compared to the interlocking weight system itself, but it reflects the same approach – every part of the hire should be straightforward to use on site, not left to guesswork.
Bespoke arrangements and rigging drawings
For more complex hires, we can also provide detailed rigging arrangement drawings and layout plans before you take delivery, giving your team a clear reference for how the weights should be configured and rigged before work begins.
