Minicrane rental: Everything you need to know
Maximize your compact lifting solutions with rentmas' selection of minicrane rentals. These versatile machines combine exceptional mobility with surprising strength, making them essential for projects requiring precise material handling in confined workspaces. Minicranes provide adaptable lifting solutions for interior construction, glass installation, machinery relocation, and landscape projects.
Is a minicrane the right machine for my project?
Minicranes – also known as mini crawler cranes, spider cranes, spyder cranes, mini telescopic cranes, mini spider cranes, crawler cranes, or simply as mini cranes – are portable lifting devices that feature a telescopic boom mounted on a tracked undercarriage with fold-out outriggers, enabling stable operation in restricted spaces. The combination of their compact footprint and extendable stabilizer system makes minicranes ideal for jobs that require delicate lifts in areas with limited access or weight restrictions.
Minicranes are distinguished based on their lift capacity, boom extension, and fuel source. Minicranes on the rentmas platform are available with maximum standard boom reach from 8 to 24 meters and lifting capacities from 2 to 8 tons. You can also find both diesel and hybrid minicranes on the rentmas platform. Hybrid cranes operate on diesel, but can also be plugged in and operate with electric power, which can be especially advantageous in closed spaces and to reduce emissions.
For larger lifting operations, explore our selection of mobile cranes. For more mobile lifting solutions that don’t require heightened stability on uneven surfaces, check out selection of crane trucks and industrial mobile cranes.
Consider your space constraints carefully when selecting a minicrane. Factors such as doorway dimensions, floor loading limits, overhead clearance, and setup area will determine which model best addresses your specific lifting challenges.
Minicranes deliver exceptional maneuverability and precision, enabling operators to complete lifts where conventional cranes cannot physically access. These machines excel at combining narrow passage capabilities with impressive strength-to-size ratios and flexible positioning options, making them ideal for renovation projects, glass curtain wall installations, and indoor equipment placement. As with any compact equipment, make sure you perform a thorough access assessment and verify floor loading capacities before deploying your minicrane onsite.
Mini crawlers that feature ‘spider legs’ have a large stability advantage over their non-legged counterparts (mini telescopic cranes), able to hoist large amounts of weight on the most unlevel and uneven surfaces. However, unlike the mini spider crane, the mini telescopic crane features a cabin that allows operators to work in a closed, temperature-controlled environment away from the elements and any dust and debris kicked up on the construction site.
Minicranes can be equipped with various features to enhance their versatility. The standard configuration includes proportional hydraulic controls and foldable outriggers. Other common features and options include:
- Dual power sources: For indoor/outdoor flexibility
- Radio remote controls: For single-operator functionality
- Adjustable track widths: For doorway access
- Articulating fly jibs: For reaching around obstacles
- Load charts with multiple configurations: For optimized lifting capacity
