We are main agents and stockists for all leading brands of quality lifting equipment, extensive stocks of New and Hire equipment are held at our London works. Lifting equipment is our business and we take great pride in the safe, reliable, personalized, efficient and cost effective service we provide to industry.

Established in 1948 RAMS has vast experience in the manufacture, supply and hire of lifting equipment. Originally formed to supply steel wire ropes and fibre ropes to the marine sector, hence our docklands location. RAMS still retains strong links with the marine world and its support industries. Over the years however, reacting to demand, we have expanded our activities and now supply lifting equipment and associated components to the oil industry, aerospace and automobile industries, lift and escalator industries, the entertainment world and major civil engineering projects. No job is too small or large, whether a simple 'A' frame gantry for use in a garage or a major design and build of lifting equipment and attachments for use in construction of a power plant.

Our success lies in our ability to manufacture in house a wide range of bespoke lifting assemblies and standard equipment, either to clients requirements or to our design.
