New LGH Case Study: Rigging Solutions for Data Center Overhaul

Wilkerson Crane on the job site for the data center overhaul in Kansas City.

When Wilkerson Crane needed certified rigging equipment for installing new generators and fuel tanks for a data center overhaul, they turned to LGH for expert support.

The project was unique due to the facility’s age and the reuse of existing infrastructure, requiring careful planning. We spoke with Russell White, Branch Sales Manager at Wilkerson Crane, to gain insights into this phase of the project.

Custom Lifting Collaborations

Recently, LGH Product Manager Chris Hyatte had the opportunity to visit Caldwell for a day of collaboration with their team. Building relationships like these is essential for developing the safest, most efficient, and innovative gear on the market.

We’re grateful for ongoing partnerships with reliable manufacturers and look forward to more projects in the future.

At our Pittsburgh Rental Center, new crane rails have been installed to enhance efficiency. With plans for the back wall to be blown out, the shop will soon be doubled in size.

By improving our rental centers, growing partnerships, expanding our fleet, and offering advanced training for our staff, we uphold our mission to provide the safest and most reliable lifting and rigging gear.
