Handling and lifting a large painting in Paris

Transexpo is a recognised expert in delicate handling of heavy or large works.

Handling heavy or monumental works: a matter for specialists

While transporting and handling small works does not pose any particular problems, moving heavy or monumental works is a matter for specialists. 

Transexpo's clients know that even if access is complicated, our teams will always find a solution to handle their works and move them in perfect safety. 

That's why one of our loyal clients, a major collector, recently called on us to crane a large painting in Paris. 

Handling with crane arm including delicate manoeuvring through a window

Our crane operators are experts in delicate handling and operate the crane arms fitted to our trucks with great dexterity. They are even capable of lifting works up to terraces and balconies, or delivering works through large bay windows overlooking the street. 

Careful unpacking and installation

Once manoeuvred inside the new owner's apartment, the crate containing the work is opened and the painting is delicately unpacked by our experienced crate makers/packers. 

Our teams of installers then take over to hang the work in its new display space where it will be admired by visitors. 

It's your turn to call on Transexpo to delicately handle your works.
