Technical Inspection Scope

What Our Certified Technicians Inspect & Deliver

Installing a commercial car hoist is a specialised civil and mechanical task. Sub-standard concrete, incorrect anchor embedment depths, or unlevel columns cause premature cable wear, structural twisting, and catastrophic anchor pull-out under heavy 4WD loads. P&M's installation crews verify floor slab strength (requiring 100mm to 150mm+ 25-32MPa concrete), use heavy-duty chemical anchors, and provide full WorkSafe compliance documentation upon commissioning.

Inclusions & Physical Inspection Checkpoints

  • Slab thickness core verification and concrete MPA compressive strength assessment
  • Expansion joint clearance and vehicle bay entry turning radius analysis
  • Precision laser levelling, column plumb adjustment, and baseplate shimming
  • Heavy-duty chemical capsule or injection anchoring with calibrated torque verification
  • Hydraulic system bleeding, pressure relief valve setting, and limit switch calibration
  • Manufacturer warranty registration and AS 2550.9 initial commissioning verification & sign-off

Floor Slab Engineering & Professional Hoist Commissioning in WA

A 4.5-tonne or 5.5-tonne two-post hoist puts large overturning forces on the concrete floor when lifting loaded commercial utes, LandCruisers, and light trucks. If anchors are drilled too close to expansion joints, into unreinforced slabs, or into concrete under 100mm in thickness, the entire structure can become unstable under load.

Before drilling a single hole, P&M's installation team measures concrete depth and checks for subsurface conduits or structural rebar. We use heavy-duty chemical anchors, tightened with calibrated torque wrenches to the manufacturer's specification.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Most 4.0T to 4.5T clear-floor two-post hoists require a minimum slab thickness of 100mm to 125mm with a compressive strength of at least 25 to 30 MPa. Heavy 5.5T commercial hoists generally mandate 150mm reinforced concrete.
