How to Safely Handle Large Enclosures

This guide outlines essential procedures and safety precautions for moving and lifting large, top-heavy enclosures using forklifts or overhead lifting methods to prevent injury or equipment damage.

Estimated time: 1h

Tools needed:

Forklift, Overhead clamping device (if applicable), 3000 lb-rated chain or strap (if applicable), ROLL•A•LIFT™ (if applicable), Rigging (for overhead lifting), Load-rated hooks or shackles (for overhead lifting)

Supplies needed:

Eye bolts (provided on enclosure), Skid

  1. Prepare for Enclosure Handling

    Before moving the enclosure, ensure the route is clear of all obstructions and workers are at a safe distance (more than the overall height of the enclosure). Verify that only a trained and authorized forklift operator will handle the enclosure, as required by OSHA and ANSI standards. Confirm the lifting equipment's capacity is sufficient for the enclosure's weight and size, referring to product and forklift labels.

  2. Secure Enclosure for Forklift Transport

    Spread the forklift forks to the maximum distance or as dictated by the skid width. Carefully enter the skid from the rear (Side A) or narrow side (C or D for end loading), positioning the enclosure firmly against the carriage/mast. Tilt the load backwards towards the fork's mast. If not using an overhead clamping device, secure the enclosure to the forklift mast assembly using a 3000 lb-rated chain or strap through the provided eye bolts, applying sufficient tension to prevent tipping. WARNING: Do not use chains or straps to lift the enclosure; they are only for preventing tipping.

  3. Transport the Enclosure Safely

    Lift the enclosure a minimum distance so the skid is just clear of the floor. Start and stop the forklift slowly and gradually, avoiding jerking movements. Drive slowly with the forks carried as low to the ground as possible, consistent with safe operation. Have a person assist the forklift operator at a safe distance to guide movement. Avoid contacting fixed objects during transport; if contact occurs, reposition the enclosure properly before continuing. Never attempt to move more than one enclosure at a time.

  4. Perform Overhead Lifting (If Applicable)

    For enclosures with eye bolts, attach appropriate rigging, always maintaining a maximum 45° angle between lifting cables and the vertical. Use four eye bolts for three-, four-, and five-door enclosures. Do not use ropes or cables; only use slings with adequate load-rated hooks or shackles. Adjust rigging lengths to compensate for unequal weight distribution and support the enclosure upright. WARNING: Ensure the lifting device and rigging's load rating is sufficient. Do not allow the angle between lifting cables and vertical to exceed 45 degrees to reduce tension and compression.
