At Rigsafe Lifting Solutions, we specialise in the transport, lifting, rigging and installation of complex façade systems across Perth and Western Australia. Our team manages the critical lifting and installation requirements of façade components, helping projects stay on schedule while maintaining high standards of safety and precision. Get in touch today to discuss your façade lifting and installation requirements.
Precision façade installation for landmark buildings
A building’s façade is more than its appearance, it is a technically demanding element requiring precision to achieve structural performance, weatherproofing and a quality architectural finish. Our experienced team works alongside builders, developers and manufacturers to safely install façade elements on commercial, healthcare, education, industrial, infrastructure and defence projects.
Whether we're installing unitised curtain wall systems, precast façade panels, architectural cladding or oversized feature elements, we provide an integrated solution backed by detailed lift planning, experienced rigging crews and a modern fleet of cranes and specialist lifting equipment.
From the manufacturing facility to final installation, Rigsafe delivers complete façade solutions with safety, precision and programme certainty.

End-to-end façade transport & installation
Successful façade installation depends on more than lifting. Through our integrated transport, logistics, crane and rigging capability, Rigsafe can manage the complete journey of façade components, from collection at the manufacturer through to final installation on site.
Our end-to-end façade installation services include manufacturer collection, heavy transport and logistics, delivery scheduling, oversized load management, temporary storage and staging, lift planning, crane mobilisation, specialist rigging, façade installation, site supervision and project coordination.
By delivering transport, lifting and installation under one contract, we simplify project delivery, reduce interfaces between contractors and provide greater accountability throughout the construction programme.
Façade installation designed around precision
Façade installation is one of the most precise lifting operations undertaken on a construction site. Many façade elements require installation tolerances measured in millimetres while working at significant heights and within changing environmental conditions.
Our planning process considers building geometry, panel dimensions, centre of gravity, lifting points, wind loading, crane reach, site access, installation sequence, temporary supports, building movements, protection of finished surfaces and interfaces with other trades. This attention to detail ensures each façade element is positioned accurately while maintaining productivity and protecting valuable architectural finishes.
Specialist lift planning
Every façade project begins with detailed engineering and lift planning. Our experienced team develops project-specific lifting methodologies that maximise efficiency while reducing risk. Planning considers crane selection, engineered lift studies, lift sequencing, delivery coordination, access planning, ground bearing assessments, exclusion zones, weather monitoring, temporary works, installation methodology and emergency procedures. Detailed planning enables us to safely deliver complex façade projects while helping clients maintain demanding construction programmes.
High-rise & restricted access specialists
Many façade projects involve difficult lifting conditions. We regularly undertake installation works involving:
High-rise buildings
CBD developments
Restricted crane positions
Live hospitals
Operating commercial buildings
Tight urban sites
Night works
Weekend works
Live pedestrian environments
Our experienced supervisors and rigging crews understand how to safely deliver façade installations while minimising disruption to surrounding operations.
Specialist lifting equipment
Every façade system presents unique lifting challenges. Depending on project requirements, Rigsafe utilises mobile cranes, Franna cranes, spider cranes, telehandlers, glass lifting equipment, vacuum lifting systems, purpose-designed lifting frames and engineered spreader beams. Our modern fleet and specialist lifting expertise allow us to safely install delicate architectural elements while protecting finished products.
