This guide is designed to help you compare and choose from our range of 130-325kg mobile lifters – ensuring the model you select best matches your lifting and operational requirements. We will cover product lift capacities, operational differences, suitability based on common applications and even how to evaluate features such as lift height, attachment options and manoeuvrability.
Who are 130-325kg mobile lifters for?
Mobile lifters in the 130-325kg range are built for heavier lifting tasks, compared to their 0-90kg counterparts, that go beyond typical light handling but still do not require fixed gantry cranes or forklift operations. These lifters are ideal where load weights, frequent transfers and ergonomic risks make manual handling unsafe or inefficient. Typical applications include:
- Industrial production and assembly lines involving heavy components
- Warehouse and logistics operations for containers and packed reels
- Server room or battery handling for heavy equipment lifts
- Drum, vessel and bowl lifting in food and chemical settings
- Stainless steel or hygiene-sensitive environments with suitable finishes
Common tasks suitable for these sorts of mobile lifters include lifting heavy boxes, repositioning bulky materials onto work surfaces, handling reels or drums and moving battery banks.

Which lifter is right for you?
When selecting a lifter from the 130-325kg range, it helps to match both the weight and the workflow of your environment.
- Lower mid-range capacities (130–175kg) are great where mobility and tight space usage are key, such as smaller production cells or work zones.
- Mid-tier models (200–250kg) offer solid strength for heavier containers and drums, as well as machinery parts, ideal for warehouse and general industrial use.
- High-capacity units (up to 325kg) provide the muscle for large, bulky loads like server batteries, oversized components and heavier reels.
Use case profiles
| Environment | Common Tasks | Recommended Model(s) |
|---|---|---|
| Factory / Light Industrial | Handling machine parts, bins and components | LSP-175PRX, LSH-200I |
| Warehouse / Logistics | Moving boxes, crates, roll cages or packed goods | LSP-225PRX, LS-SR-154-018 |
| Server & Battery Rooms | Lifting heavy components for installation or maintenance | LSP-325M |
| Drum & Vessel Handling | Positioning drums, bowls or vessels safely | LS-SR-154-018, LS-TR-154-019 |
| Cleanroom / Hygiene-Sensitive | Handling heavier loads with corrosion resistance | LSP-325M (stainless option) |
Tooling and customisation
The real flexibility of our 130-325kg lifters lies in their ability to be configured or outfitted with the right attachments and tooling options to better prepare them for your individual applications. While base lifter specs such as capacity and lift height are important, it is these tooling and attachment options that determine how effectively a lifter integrates into your day-to-day operations.
Many models in our range support modular and quick-change tooling, allowing your chosen lifter to perform multiple roles. This means you can move seamlessly between different handling tasks without having to invest in multiple machines for each application.
Typical attachment options include:
- Forks and adjustable platforms for boxes and containers
- Cradles and V-blocks for cylindrical loads
- Mandrels and reel handlers for reels or spools
- Battery trays or server platforms
- Custom-built tooling designed around non-standard loads or restricted spaces
For more specialised or challenging requirements, feel free to speak to our sales team, who will help assess your load type and operating environment to recommend or design the most appropriate lifting solution.
Summary
Lift Safe’s 130-325kg mobile lifter range combines robust lifting capacities with ergonomic designs and adaptable tooling to support heavy lifting tasks across a range of sectors. With the information above you should have the product details and model comparisons in a real-world context, needed to confidently select the best lifter for your workplace challenges.
When choosing between models:
- Start with your load size and weight
