The Sun Cranes & Hoists

Running a place like The Sun Cranes & Hoists means we spend a lot of time looking up. Our workshop is on Rizwan Road in Kodungaiyur. It’s not a quiet neighborhood, but that works for us because building cranes and hoists isn't a quiet job. We have stacks of steel beams and chains all over the place. Sometimes it feels like there isn't enough room, but we manage to get everything organized eventually. The guys here have been working with heavy lifting gear for a long time. We know how a hoist should sound and when a crane needs a bit of grease. It’s practical work. We don't do much sitting around. When someone needs a way to move heavy loads, they come find us. We don't have a fancy website or a marketing team. It’s just us in the shop, measuring things out and welding them together. Kodungaiyur is our home base and we’ve gotten used to the rhythm of the street here. You’ll find us at number 2, usually busy with a custom build or fixing an old motor. We take our time to make sure the parts fit right. There is no point rushing when you are dealing with things that carry tons of weight. We just show up, do the work, and go home tired. It’s a good way to earn a living. It gets loud and messy, but at the end of the day, something big got built.
