Configure to suit your needs

The TDavit range is available in a number of dedicated variants, each engineered to address specific lifting, safety, and access requirements. Rather than relying on a single davit configuration to perform every task, Reid offers purpose-built options including Shackled, Winched, Double Winched, Rope Access, Geared Trolley, and Variable Winch models, each designed to optimise performance for particular applications.

Whether the requirement is materials lifting, personnel lifting, fall protection, rescue and recovery, rope access operations, or controlled load traversal, there is a TDavit specifically designed for the task. This allows organisations to select a solution that aligns directly with their operational requirements, providing the functionality, attachment methods, and performance characteristics needed for the application without unnecessary complexity.

Rather than adapting a single davit design to suit every task, each TDavit variant incorporates dedicated features that optimise performance for its intended use. Whether supporting materials lifting, personnel lifting, rescue and recovery, rope access operations, fall protection, or load traversal, users can select the TDavit variation designed specifically for that challenge.

Within each variant, multiple beam lengths, column heights, and configuration options are available, allowing organisations to further tailor the selected TDavit to their operational requirements. This approach provides the best of both worlds: a choice of specialist davit systems, each with the flexibility to suit different site layouts, working heights, reach requirements, and lifting capacities.

Constructed from lightweight aluminium and supplied as manageable modular components, each TDavit variant can be easily transported, handled, and deployed in locations where traditional lifting equipment may be impractical or impossible to use.

Designed to break down into separate beam and column sections, TDavits are easier to move, store, and transport between sites without the need for specialist handling equipment. This modular approach allows operators to carry individual components through restricted access routes, across challenging terrain, and into confined or remote working environments before assembling the system on site.

The benefits extend beyond transportation. Modular construction enables a wide range of beam and column combinations within each TDavit variant, allowing organisations to select the configuration that best suits their lifting requirements while retaining the portability that makes the system so versatile. Whether supporting planned maintenance, emergency response activities, or routine lifting operations, the lightweight, modular design helps reduce logistical challenges, speed up deployment, and improve operational flexibility.

The TDavit range has been engineered to be more than just a davit system. Whether the requirement is materials handling, personnel lifting, confined space entry, fall arrest, or rescue and recovery, operators can configure the system with the equipment best suited to the task. It is also designed to integrate seamlessly with a wide range of Winches, Hoists, SRLs, rescue devices, and lifting accessories. Compatible brackets enable simple integration with a wide range of devices, providing the flexibility to create a solution that matches site requirements while maintaining a consistent lifting platform across applications.

This adaptability allows operators to utilise the same TDavit system across multiple tasks and environments without investing in dedicated equipment for each application. As operational requirements change, the system can be reconfigured with alternative lifting devices and accessories, helping maximise asset utilisation while providing a future-proof solution that evolves alongside site needs.

The TDavit range is designed around Reid’s universal 65mm kingpin, allowing the systems to rotate a full 360° while carrying a load. Rather than having to repeatedly reposition the davit, operators can smoothly move loads through the required lifting path by simply rotating the system around its socket position. This not only improves control during lifting and lowering operations but also helps maintain safer handling of suspended loads throughout the task.

In confined spaces, around obstacles, or in areas with restricted access, the ability to rotate under load provides greater freedom of movement while helping to minimise manual intervention. This can reduce setup adjustments, improve workflow, and allow lifting operations to be completed more quickly and effectively.

The benefit becomes even greater when handling awkward, sensitive, or difficult-to-access loads. Controlled rotational movement allows operators to align loads more precisely during installation, maintenance, inspection, or material handling activities.

Built from lightweight aluminium and finished with a clean anodised coating, the TDavit range is designed to perform reliably in demanding industrial and outdoor environments. The anodisation process increases resistance to corrosion, wear and everyday damage, helping to protect the system throughout its service life while maintaining a professional, low-maintenance finish.
