At Carl Stahl Fabrication, we design and manufacture bespoke lifting beams to deliver safe, stable and efficient lifting solutions across demanding industrial environments. Engineered in the UK and built to exact specifications, our lifting beams provide precise load distribution, improved lifting control, and enhanced safety for complex and oversized loads.

Our custom lifting beams are ideal for use in sectors such as manufacturing, construction, renewable energy, rail, aerospace, and heavy engineering. Whether you require a fixed lifting beam, adjustable lifting beam, spreader beam, or lifting frame, every solution is tailored to your exact load requirements, lifting points, and operational constraints.

All lifting beams are manufactured using high-grade structural steel and are fully tested, certified and CE marked in accordance with BS EN standards. Each unit is supplied with full documentation, including load test certificates, proof of load testing, and technical drawings, ensuring total compliance and traceability.

By working closely with your project team, Carl Stahl Fabrication delivers lifting beams that improve safety, protect the load, reduce stress on lifting equipment, and optimise operational efficiency. From single bespoke units to high-volume production, we provide reliable lifting solutions built for long-term performance.

FAQ

A bespoke lifting beam is a custom-designed lifting device engineered to suit a specific load, lifting configuration and site requirement. Unlike off-the-shelf lifting beams, bespoke solutions are manufactured to meet precise Safe Working Load (SWL), centre of gravity and dimensional specifications.

A bespoke lifting beam is recommended when standard equipment cannot safely accommodate load geometry, lifting points, headroom restrictions or site constraints. Custom lifting beam fabrication ensures balanced lifting performance and compliance with applicable safety standards.

To design a bespoke lifting beam, we typically require:

  • Safe Working Load (SWL)

  • Load dimensions and weight distribution

  • Lifting point configuration

  • Headroom limitations

  • Operational environment

  • Any certification requirements

This allows accurate 3D CAD modelling and structural validation prior to manufacture.

Yes. Our custom lifting beams can be supplied with full documentation, including design calculations, material traceability, welding certification and proof load testing certificates where required. All beams are engineered to comply with relevant UK and European lifting standards.

Bespoke lifting beams are typically fabricated from high-grade structural steel such as S355. Material selection is based on load requirements, durability and operational environment, with optional protective coatings for corrosion resistance.

Yes. We can carry out proof load testing in accordance with applicable standards before delivery. This ensures your fabricated lifting beam is ready for safe operation and supported by documented test certification.

We design and fabricate a range of custom lifting beams, including:

  • Spreader beams

  • Underslung lifting beams

  • Adjustable lifting beams

  • Modular lifting frames

  • Multi-point lifting beams

Each solution is engineered to suit the specific lifting application.

Bespoke lifting beams are widely used in construction, infrastructure, manufacturing, heavy engineering, utilities and process industries. Custom fabrication ensures safe handling of complex loads across demanding industrial environments.
