Our highly skilled engineers understand the precision, care and attention required when handling priceless and irreplaceable works of art.
Moving fine art, sculptures and historic artefacts demands more than specialist equipment it requires patience, precision and a complete understanding of the item being handled.
Alheavy provides carefully planned solutions for the removal, transportation and positioning of valuable, delicate and irreplaceable pieces. Every project is individually assessed, allowing our team to select the appropriate lifting equipment, protective packaging and handling method for the object and its surroundings.
Whether working within restricted exhibition spaces, around fragile finishes or with unusually shaped artefacts, our experienced team manages every stage with care. From the initial survey and preparation through to lifting, transport and final placement, protecting the item remains our priority.
We are proud to have supported respected institutions including the Royal College of Art, the National Maritime Museum in Greenwich and the Natural History Museum, alongside many other museums, galleries and specialist organisations.
“Preserving the past while carefully moving it forward.”
