At Rigsafe Lifting Solutions, we deliver professional structural steel installation services across Perth and Western Australia. Our experienced team handles the lifting, rigging and positioning of structural steel components, working closely with project teams to ensure steelwork installations are completed safely, accurately and efficiently. Get in touch today to discuss your structural steel installation requirements.
Delivering structural steel installation with precision, safety and certainty
Structural steel forms the backbone of modern construction and successful installation requires far more than simply lifting steel into position. Every steelwork installation project demands meticulous planning, experienced personnel, engineered lifting solutions and seamless coordination between multiple trades to ensure every member is installed safely, efficiently and to programme.
At Rigsafe Lifting Solutions, structural steel installation is one of our core capabilities. We partner with builders, structural steel fabricators, developers and principal contractors to deliver complete installation packages across commercial, industrial, mining, defence and infrastructure projects throughout Perth and Western Australia.
Supported by our in-house lift planning capability, modern crane fleet, specialist rigging crews and integrated logistics solutions, we manage every stage of the steelwork installation process, from transport and sequencing through to final placement and completion.

Whether installing a single critical beam or coordinating thousands of tonnes of structural steel across multiple stages, our teams bring the same attention to planning, safety and execution.
Steelwork installation begins long before the first lift
Successful structural steel installation is built on detailed preparation. Before any steel arrives on site, our engineering and project teams work closely with clients to understand the construction programme, lifting constraints and sequencing requirements.
Our planning process considers structural drawings and connection details, installation sequencing, crane selection, lift studies and engineered lift plans, ground bearing pressures, site access, delivery scheduling, temporary works requirements, wind limitations, exclusion zones, interfaces with other contractors, traffic and logistics planning, and site safety requirements.
By identifying risks early and developing practical installation methodologies, we minimise disruption while improving productivity and programme certainty.
Specialist rigging expertise
Every structural steel installation relies on experienced riggers who understand both lifting operations and construction methodology. Our permanent workforce includes highly experienced riggers, doggers, supervisors and lift planners who work together to safely execute complex lifts in live construction environments. Our crews regularly install:
Large transfer beams
Columns
Roof trusses
Structural frames
Plant platforms
Stair modules
Lift cores
Mechanical support steel
Architectural feature steel
Bridge components
With extensive experience working around live operations, restricted access sites and tight construction programmes, our teams understand the importance of maintaining productivity while never compromising safety.
Heavy lifting capability
Structural steel installation projects often involve lifting large, awkward or high-value components in challenging environments. Rigsafe's modern fleet enables us to safely complete lifts ranging from routine commercial steelwork installations through to highly engineered heavy lifts.
Our fleet includes mobile cranes up to 160 tonnes, Franna cranes, spider cranes, telehandlers, boom lifts, specialised lifting equipment and engineered lifting accessories. Combined with detailed lift planning, this capability allows us to install structural steel safely across projects with restricted access, limited crane positions and complex lifting geometries.
160 tonnes
Mobile cranes up to 160 tonnes, supported by Franna cranes, spider cranes, telehandlers and boom lifts.
Integrated crane, rigging and logistics
Unlike many contractors, Rigsafe provides an integrated structural steel installation solution. Rather than engaging separate suppliers for transport, crane hire, rigging and installation, clients benefit from a single contractor managing the complete lifting operation. Our integrated services include:
Lift planning and engineering
Structural steel installation
Crane hire
Rigging crews
Dogging services
Transport logistics
Delivery coordination
Temporary storage
Site supervision
Project management
This integrated approach reduces interfaces between contractors, improves communication and provides greater confidence that projects will be delivered safely and efficiently.
