What Glass Lifting Equipment Do You Need?
Glass Start with the glass. Its weight, dimensions, surface type and final position will determine which equipment is suitable. Standard glazing units may only require a vacuum lifter, while heavier panels or restricted-access projects may need a glazing robot or crane-assisted lift.
Then consider the site. Door widths, working height, ground conditions and available setup space all affect the lifting method. Internal installations and narrow access routes often suit glazing robots, while larger façade panels may require a vacuum lifter used with a spider crane or mobile crane.
The best approach is to call 01892 662 777 before you book.

Our range includes vacuum lifters, glazing robots, spider cranes and specialist lifting attachments. The right equipment depends on the panel weight, dimensions, access and installation height.
How do I know whether I need a vacuum lifter or glazing robot?

How do I prepare my site before the glass lifting equipment arrives?
Before delivery, make sure the access route is clear, the unloading area is suitable and the installation area is ready for work. Check for overhead cables, trees, underground services, weak floors and any restrictions that could affect delivery or lifting. Site photographs, panel details and the project postcode can help identify potential issues before mobilisation. The Health and Safety Executive provides guidance on planning lifting operations, which is useful when preparing your site and assessing lifting risks. If you’re unsure what information is needed, Coppard’s Crowborough team can help you prepare before the equipment arrive.
