Manhole Cover Lifters

Manual manhole cover lifters are practical and budget-friendly, with most models now suitable for one or two people to operate. They are also lightweight and compact and can be easily stored in the boot of a car. We supply all types of manual lifters, including budget-friendly basic models that include useful features such as longer handles that prevent the need to bend, therefore reducing the risk of injury.

For those workers who need to lift manhole covers frequently or different types of covers, we also supply manual lifters that can be used by one person and on all types of covers, including rectangular, round, triangular and split covers. These lifters allow covers to be removed within minutes of arriving at a site. Hydraulic manhole cover lifters are an ideal choice if you want a fast and efficient lifter that requires very little effort from the worker. The models we supply are compact and portable, and easy to assemble and use.

Hydraulic manhole cover removers are also designed to deal with the heaviest of covers, and most come with a range of keys to allow most types of covers to be lifted. While these cost a little more than manual lifters, they are a great investment for businesses and individuals who lift covers regularly, and often need to lift heavy manhole covers and covers that may not have been lifted in a long time.

We also supply many other manhole lifting tools, such as seal breakers and storage boxes. Seal breakers are designed to break the seal on tight manhole covers, or manhole covers that have become jammed because they haven’t been lifted for a while. Like all lifting equipment sold by Lifting365, all our manhole cover lifters are carefully selected and come fully tested and certified. If you need any help or advice on selecting the best cover lifter for your needs, our customer service team is ready to answer any questions you may have.
