Across Australia’s waterways, ports, and marine infrastructure, McKay United delivers dependable lifting and logistics support for projects on land and at sea. Our extensive fleet of All-Terrain, Franna, City, and Crawler cranes provides full coverage for wharves, harbours, water treatment facilities, and maritime construction.
We understand the challenges of lifting in dynamic coastal environments — from limited access and tidal conditions to strict compliance standards. That’s why our planning starts well before mobilising. Every lift is engineered, certified, and executed with safety and precision at its core.
Our crews are highly trained in confined and over-water operations, with a deep understanding of risk management and site-specific controls. Whether it’s installing pipework at a desalination plant or loading equipment onto barges, we deliver dependable solutions that keep water infrastructure flowing smoothly.
McKay United continues to set the standard for safe, efficient, and innovative lifting in Australia’s water sector — with an unwavering focus on reliability, compliance, and performance.
