Crane Inspection Services

Safety Is the Goal

At Excel Industries, safety is more than a requirement, it’s the purpose behind every crane inspection we perform. Our crane inspection programs are built around detailed, standardized processes to ensure consistency, compliance, and peace of mind. Each inspection is handled with care and precision to help safeguard your people, equipment, and operations. If you’re interested in understanding the exact steps we follow, we’re always happy to walk you through our comprehensive process.

Crane Inspection Programs Designed to Fit Your Needs

We understand that no two facilities operate the same way. That’s why Excel does not offer a blanket solution like many of our competitors. Instead, we develop tailored inspection programs based on each customer’s unique needs. This personalized approach strengthens not only safety and efficiency but also the overall business relationship.

When designing a program, we consider factors such as:

  • Production volume and operating shifts
  • Crane duty cycles and frequency of use
  • Types of equipment in use and their application environment

Our programs are flexible and scalable. As your facility grows or changes, we can add newly acquired cranes to your existing inspection schedule. Whether your goal is compliance, preventative maintenance, or operational efficiency, Excel will structure a program that supports your needs.

A Practical & Thorough Inspection Process

Our inspection process begins with an on-site evaluation of your equipment, followed by a meeting to fully understand your expectations. We then provide a clear quote. Upon your approval, our certified inspectors inspect following OSHA and industry standards. Afterward, we meet with you to review any safety concerns and recommend corrective actions.

We also help you prioritize repairs to manage your budget and downtime effectively. This thoughtful approach ensures urgent issues are addressed promptly, while less critical needs can be scheduled strategically.

A typical inspection takes one to two hours per crane, depending on size and accessibility. Reports are usually delivered within a week unless an urgent issue is discovered, in which case we will notify you immediately. If repairs are required, we’ll prepare a detailed quote after sourcing parts and pricing from manufacturers.

Adherence to Industry Standards

All of our inspections comply with the latest safety standards, including:

  • OSHA 1910.179
  • ANSI B30
  • CMAA Specification 78

You’ll receive thorough, written documentation that outlines your equipment’s condition and supports regulatory compliance.

Certified Expertise You Can Trust

Every inspection is performed by our factory-trained technicians, all of whom are certified by third-party organizations. We do not self-certify, ensuring unbiased service and the highest level of professionalism. Our inspectors are trained to identify not just existing issues, but emerging hazards, helping you take action before they escalate into safety incidents or operational delays.

Coverage & Frequency

OSHA requires cranes to be inspected by a qualified third party at least once a year. However, we often recommend more frequent inspections for high-use equipment or environments with continuous operation. We evaluate these needs during our consultation and help you determine the ideal inspection schedule.

Excel provides inspection services across a broad geographic range. If you’re unsure whether we can reach your location, we’re happy to discuss travel arrangements that ensure your facility is covered.

Frequently Asked Questions

How soon will I receive the inspection report?

Inspection reports are typically delivered within one week of the completed inspection. If any urgent safety issues are found, we’ll notify you immediately and may expedite the reporting process.

Can you provide a quote for any necessary repairs?

Yes, we can provide a detailed repair quote following the inspection. In some cases, this may take a bit longer as we source pricing and availability from equipment manufacturers.
