What is included in an overhead crane inspection?
An overhead crane inspection checks the condition and operation of the crane’s critical components. Regular inspections help identify deterioration early and support safer, more reliable operation.
Our inspections include:
- Crane bridge and runway systems
- Hoists and lifting mechanisms

- Brakes and gearboxes
- Electrical systems and controls
- Limit switches

Following the inspection, Crane Care provides a detailed report outlining the crane’s condition, identified faults and any recommended repairs or maintenance. This gives your business a clear record of the crane’s condition and helps you plan maintenance before minor issues become larger problems.
