Met Office (Exeter)
The met office has moved into a purpose built area and need to transfer records from their archived storage area to the new work in progress areas. The shelved trolley designed needed to hold 4 archive boxes on the top shelf and 6 on the bottom shelf. The trolley was also fitted with non-marking castors and non-marking corner bumpers so was not to cause damage to the new premises. More over the trolley needed to fit into a goods service lift measuring 1.10 metres high 1.10 metres deep and 1.30 metres wide. This was achieved on a small quantity order of just 4 trolleys, which were built on our own premises here at Handle-iT. [ posted 5/9/07 ]

Thru - Vision
Handle-iT designed and built a trolley for a cylindrical x-ray machine. The trolley needed a dead man breaking system to prevent damage to sensitive electrical equipment. The trolley was designed completely from scratch by our team here at Handle-iT. [posted 11/9/07 ]
are moving electric pumps from outside the warehouse to the inside. There is no way the pumps can risk getting wet. Also they are very big and bulky and so very awkward to handle. We suggested a massive mumma as it has drop down sides, so if needs be they can drop them down to put the pump inside and raise them to make sure it stays inside. We have also provided a tarpaulin cover that would ensure that the pump would never get wet inside the truck.

Mathew Clark Park Royal.
The customers problems where being caused by not being unable to achieve a constant const stream with expenditure being very erratic depending on the time of year, being a brewery the expenditure was very large around Christmas and the summer period, and for the rest of the year a very slow spend. The customers had an ageing fleet of equipment. They wanted to achieve a constant cash flow situation, having a new fleet of Magliner sack trucks, which by themselves are very expensive.
Handle-iT recognized the benefits of the consistent cash flow, which in any other situation would be nearly impossible to provide, but with a little lateral think we implement a rental agreement, where Matthew Clark rented the equipment over a two year rental period with all part and maintenance include. There were 80 Magliner 516-U-1010-C5KH, these included a sliding keg hook, puncture proof tyres as well as low friction polymer stair skids making the job a lot easier for their draymen. The sack barrows were all serial numbered, and supplied with the “Matthew Clark Park Royal” livery and telephone number so that they are easily identifiable.
Shop Fitters Direct
Came to us for Shopping Trolleys, these will be going to every Selfridges in the country. They wanted most of the trolley in plastic and the handles in black.They also wanted these shopping trolleys to be 60ltrs.
A church had problems with all of the toys that they used for the children’s play group. They couldn’t store them and needed to move them out of the way! So they purchased a roll cage that would fit through doors and had a half hinging side so all of the toys wouldn’t fall out and hurt any of the children once it was opened. They brought two and they were the perfect solution for their unholy mess!!
Auquafactors Direct –
Came to Handle-iT as a word of mouth recommendation, as they heard we were experts in designing trolley aided solutions. Aquafactors wanted to mount a 700kg IBC and pump automatic pump unit, and keep it mobile.
We used the basic HIT1000 Turntable trolley with a steering lock and hand applied parking brake so the the trolley would remain static which the IBC and pump unit did there thing. The steering lock provided additional stability to the unit as the constent movement of liquids sometime can cause instability to to some trolley with the load centre constently fluctuating.
