About Solar Panel Lifting
Handling solar panels can be a tricky business and solar panel installation can be hazardous. Not only because of their more delicate nature, but also because they typically need to be lifted to high levels for rooftop installation.
With the right lifting gear you can lift your panels easily. Whilst also protecting them from damage.
Whilst there are a number of products which can help with solar panel lifting, such as lifting slings or strap system. Nothing really comes close to the benefits of our solar panel lifting bags.
Because solar panels are usually installed on rooftops, getting them up there can be hazardous both to the people involved in the task and the panels themselves.
These types of installations typically involve scaffolding and a hoist or winching system to lift your load to the roof. But how do you attach the solar panel to the hoist?
The easiest way by far is with the use of a solar panel bag. These specialist bags are designed specifically for handling solar panels. However other panel style loads can be lifted too. As an example you may use the bag for lifting windows, radiators, wooden boards, signage and more.
Why Use a Solar Panel Lifting Bag
Solar panels and similar loads need to be handled carefully. This is to protect them from any damage which could render them unusable, thus costly.
Our panel bags are made in the UK and are fully tested and certified.
The bags incorporate padding to the inner surface for a good level of protection. They are open on 3 sides for easy loading and off loading. However each open side, left and right can be secured with adjustable, velcro straps to stop contents from slipping out.
Carrying handles plus a central sling are stitched into the bag to enable easy handling. The sling, complete with lifting rings can easily be attached to a hoist for stable lifting.
Conclusion
In conclusion, a solar panel lifting bag will protect the panel from damage. But above all enable easier lifting and handling. A further benefit is the lesser strain it puts on the worker, the bag does the hard work! No more strains from lifting heavy panels, and most importantly you don't have to physically man-handle panels up scaffolding to the roof, a hazardous task which we do not recommend.
