Hoist Relocations
Move your hoist without the headaches and get it working like it should at the new site.
Whether you’re shifting workshops, upgrading bays, or taking over a new tenancy, hoist relocation is where shortcuts get expensive. Davies can dismantle, transport where required, reinstall, and recommission your equipment so it operates safely and smoothly with correct clearances, anchors, and lift geometry.
Best for: workshop moves, tenancy changes, bay reconfigurations, equipment upgrades.
Workshop Fitouts: New or Expanding
Build bays that flow, maximise space, efficiency, and safety.
A great workshop isn’t just about buying good gear, it’s about positioning and planning so techs can work faster, safer, and with less downtime. Davies helps map out hoist placement and workshop functionality so your fitout makes sense now and still works when you grow.
Best for: new workshops, expansions, multi-bay setups, dealership/service centres.
Fitout support can cover
- Hoist selection guidance to suit your workflow
- Bay layout and spacing recommendations
- Practical planning around ceiling height and access
- Staged installs to keep your workshop trading
- Coordination with concrete upgrades (if needed)
Off-Site Assembly
We pre-assemble so install day is faster, cleaner, and simpler.
When access is tight or downtime matters, off-site assembly can be the difference between a smooth install and a dragged-out job. We can pre-build suitable equipment so it arrives ready to position, secure, and commission, reducing disruption onsite.
Best for: tight workshops, high-traffic sites, time-sensitive installs.
Why off-site assembly works
- Shortens time onsite (less interruption to operations)
- Cleaner install day with fewer moving parts
- Less congestion if your space is limited
- Ideal for planned upgrades and staged installs
Training covers
- Correct lifting points and vehicle positioning
- Daily/weekly checks your team should actually do
- Safe use habits that prevent damage and incidents
- What “doesn’t sound right” and when to stop
- Basic care guidance to support reliability
Operator Training & Handover
Your hoist is only “installed” when your team can use it safely.
After commissioning, we walk your team through practical, workshop-real operating procedures. The goal is simple: safer operation, fewer mistakes, and better day-to-day care, which protects your equipment and reduces downtime.
Best for:new staff, new hoists, workshops tightening safety systems.
Technical Support & Fault Help
Fast answers and clear next steps so you can get back to work.
If your hoist isn’t operating correctly, we’ll help you diagnose the issue and determine the quickest path to a fix. In many cases, support can start immediately over the phone and if it needs hands-on attention, we’ll organise the right technician response.
Best for: hoists not lifting correctly, unusual noises, faults, interruptions.
Support you can expect
- Phone-based fault triage and troubleshooting
- Clear recommendation: service visit vs parts vs safety stop
- Technician dispatch when required
- Guidance on what to document (photos/videos) to speed it up
- Ongoing advice to reduce repeat issues

Concrete Upgrades & Slab Preparation
If the slab isn’t right, the install shouldn’t proceed.
Not every workshop slab is suitable for every hoist. Davies can assess your concrete and manage the upgrade work required to support a safe installation, including cut-out, excavation, preparation, and re-finish so the foundation matches the equipment.
Best for: older slabs, unknown concrete depth, new hoist upgrades, compliance concerns.
Concrete upgrade options
- Slab suitability checks before installation
- Cut, remove, and prepare for upgrade work
- Rework areas to meet hoist requirements
- Coordinate timing so install happens without delays
- A clear scope so you know what’s happening and why
