- Access and transport routes must be even and kept tidy.
- Hoisting and transport cases can be used together with electric hoists.
- Work platforms and cranes with suction cups are good for storey construction.
- Scaffolding with trolleys provides new options for vertical transport and fitting.
- Trucks and telescopic loaders with suction cup systems can be used for fitting.
- Lifting platforms provide access for both removal and insertion.
- Cranes with suction cups are good to use for fitting.
- Door lifters are practical aids when handling heavy doors.
- A ‘hund’ (= ‘dog’) can be used for horizontal transport if the surface is even
