Handling long, wide or awkward loads is exactly where Spreader Beams make a noticeable difference. A forklift mounted spreader beam gives you a steadier pick, better load balance and fewer “swingy” lifts when you’re positioning steelwork, fabricated frames, ducting, timber packs or plant components. As part of our Forklift Attachments hub, these beams slot onto fork pockets and are secured with retention pins, so crews can lift confidently without improvising with straps or uneven fork spacing.
On busy sites, a Spreader Beam for lifting also reduces stress on the load by controlling sling angles and keeping pick points where they should be. That’s useful when handling items that can flex, twist, crush, or mark easily. Options range from standard forklift spreader beams for routine moves through to bespoke beams sized around your fork dimensions, travel routes and typical loads. Where crane use is required, many spreader beams can be supplied with suitable top suspension points so one solution covers both forklift and overhead lifting requirements.

Forklift & Crane Spreader Beams for Controlled Lifting
Capacity and configuration should always lead the decision. Start with the maximum load weight, then consider length, centre of gravity and how you’ll attach slings or chains. A well specified spreader beam for lifting keeps the load level, helps prevent side loading, and gives predictable clearance when moving through doors, around racking or onto transport. For crane applications, the right lifting points and headroom matter just as much as the rated capacity, particularly when lift height is limited.
Practical details separate an easy day from a frustrating one: fork pocket sizing, securement method, lifting lugs positioned for common loads, and clear markings for WLL/SWL and usage. Adjustable pick points can be valuable if you handle mixed products, while fixed points suit repeatable lifts where speed matters. Certification and traceability are equally important for inspection routines and handovers, especially when spreader beams are shared between crews or moved between locations. If you send over your forklift model, fork dimensions and the loads you lift most often, you can be guided toward a spreader beam setup that improves control, reduces risk, and keeps lifting operations efficient.
