A local school system recently embarked on an ambitious expansion project to enhance its facilities and better serve its staff and students. The project required the installation of two substantial HVAC air units—each weighing 15,000 lbs. Gelock Heavy Movers was selected to manage the logistics and heavy lifting associated with this task, showcasing our expertise in providing seamless delivery and assembly services for large-scale mechanical equipment. The school’s new addition was nearly complete, with the installation of large curb adapters to accommodate the new air units. However, several challenges loomed: – The oversized air units posed a risk of damage or theft if left unattended at the job site before installation. – Coordinating the logistics of moving such heavy equipment required precise planning, particularly with respect to crane usage and timing. – Ensuring the process adhered to all safety regulations while minimizing disruption to ongoing construction activities. Gelock Heavy Movers provided a turn-key solution by managing the entire logistics chain for the air unit installation: 1. Storage Solution: The two air units were unloaded at Gelock’s warehouse for temporary storage until the job site was fully prepared. This pre-emptive measure mitigated risks associated with potential damage or theft. 2. Timely Delivery: Once the roof of the new building addition was ready and the curb adapters had been set in place, Gelock arranged for the transportation of the units. Utilizing a 190-ton crane, Gelock efficiently hoisted the air units into place, ensuring precise placement while adhering to all safety protocols. 3. Collaboration with Partners: As part of a longer-term partnership with Dan Vos Construction— the general contractor for the project—and VanDyken Mechanical— a trusted mechanical contractor—Gelock Heavy Movers leveraged existing relationships to streamline communication and ensure a smooth installation process. 80% of Gelock’s crane work focuses
