Custom Crane Solutions

Not every site, application, or operating environment suits a standard crane system.

That’s why at JDN Monocrane, we design and manufacture custom crane solutions to suit individual requirements. Where space constraints, load conditions, or operating needs fall outside standard configurations, a considered design approach allows your crane to fit the application properly.

Custom capability sits within JDN’s engineering and manufacturing process, not as an afterthought. This means crane solutions are developed with a clear understanding of how they will be used, where they will operate, and what is required for long-term performance.

If your application calls for a custom approach, the next step is a conversation with the JDN Monocrane team.

Engineering-led design and manufacturing

Custom crane solutions work best when design and manufacturing are closely linked.

At JDN Monocrane, custom cranes are developed by the engineering team and manufactured as complete systems. Design decisions are made with manufacturing, installation, and ongoing operation in mind, rather than adapting standard equipment after the fact.

This approach allows individual requirements to be addressed early and properly. It also ensures the finished crane is aligned with how it will be used on site, not just how it looks on paper.

All JDN Monocrane products can be designed and manufactured to suit individual requirements through our experienced engineering team.

When a custom crane solution is the right fit

A custom crane solution is usually considered when standard configurations do not align with the realities of a site or application.

This may be the case where:

Site layout or headroom limits restrict standard crane designs
Load sizes, weights, or handling requirements vary from typical applications
Operating conditions require specific performance considerations
The crane needs to integrate with existing structures or infrastructure

In these situations, a custom approach allows the crane to be designed around the application, rather than forcing the application to adapt to the equipment.

Talk to JDN about a custom crane solution

If a standard crane is not quite right for your site or application, a short conversation can often clarify the best path forward.

JDN Monocrane designs and manufactures cranes to suit individual requirements, with engineering expertise available from the outset. Speaking with the JDN team allows you to discuss site conditions, operating needs, and any constraints, and determine whether a custom solution is appropriate.

There is no obligation and no need for detailed specifications upfront. The goal of the initial discussion is simply to understand your application and outline what options may be available.

FAQs

What is a custom crane solution?

A custom crane solution refers to a crane that is designed and manufactured to suit specific site, operational, or application requirements, rather than relying on a standard configuration.

Can JDN customise any type of crane?

Yes. All JDN Monocrane products can be designed and manufactured to suit individual requirements, depending on the application and operating environment.

This includes custom gantry cranes, jib cranes, bridge cranes and more.

Is a custom crane only for complex applications?

Not necessarily. Custom design is often used where space constraints, operating conditions, or integration requirements make standard equipment less suitable.

Do I need detailed specifications before contacting JDN?

No. An initial discussion with the JDN team helps determine whether a custom approach is appropriate and what information may be needed to progress.

How does a custom crane fit into long-term support?

Custom cranes are designed and manufactured with long-term operation in mind, allowing servicing, maintenance, and support to be managed through the same manufacturer-led team.
