It's a way of life,
November 25, 2009
By Yarddog
from Houston, Tx
"I *had* to move a 1200 lb safe upstairs. The stairs were far too narrow and had a 90 degree landing. The professional safe mover laughed his butt off when I told him what I wanted. I ordered this winch, had it shipped to my local Northern Tool. I cut a hole in the ceiling and built a brace and cross brace in the attic to hold this lift. A pair of doubled up 2x12's on edge held up one end, and a 2x12x4ft box, supported by 2x8's to spread the load over 80 or 90 sq ft of attic held up the other end. When the hoist arrived, and I opened it, the heavy duty nature of it's construction caused me to upgrade my steel mounting beam from 2" sq tubing (3/16" thick) to 3" sq tubing (3/16" thick)
Funny thing was, this hoist came with 39 ft of cable, and a 5 ft long control wire/cable, but no 34 ft ladder to stand on to lift anything from ground level. I replaced the 16 ga 4-conductor wire/cable with 12 feet of 14 ga 4-conductor cable. Long enough to reach down from the attic to the 2nd floor balcony.
Safety first, particularily my own, so I waited until the wife was out of town, and had the safe guy bring the safe in the front door, we wrapped it with a 2-ton sling in one direction, and a 3 ton tow strap (w/hooks) in the other. Doubled up the lift cable with the included hook-n-pulley, hooked it up, and hit the button.
The hoist performed flawlessly. It could easily have lifted two safes. The motor did not strain or bog down in the least. Slid right up the ramp/guides I had built, over the spot where the railing used to be, swung out over the main part of the balcony. It Locked securely when I took my finger off the button. Then I lowered it into place.
The hoist is a heck of a deal for the price, and costs practically nothing compared to a unit that could have failed, and punched that expensive safe through the marble floor. Or compared to what could have happened to my back if we had tried to grunt it up there with a manual come-a-long.
I left it mounted in the attic. Built and framed a nice little attic door, painted to match. Still gotta get the wrought iron railing up there. (To replace the wood ones I cut out), and the game room is begging for a snooker table. A man's gotta have goals......"

Heavy Duty Hoist-Material Handling,
July 20, 2009
By brewer
from Kansas City, MO
"I work in the material handling business and we are always looking for new inexpensive ways to get products from point a to point b. We designed a system for one of our customers utilizing a hoist to raise and lower one end of a conveyor bed to meet up with 2 different exit points. We purchased 3 of these units overall and they have all met and exceeded our expectations. These have been sturdy and completely hands off since they were installed. We have been very pleased with the performance of our Northern Industrial Hoists and would absolutely recommend them to anyone!"

Hoist Review,
July 13, 2009
By fly4fun
from Concord, NC
"I purchased this hoist to use in my shop as a freight hoist to lift items upstairs for storage and it has been a real back saver. It operates smoothly and is very strong.
I doubled the cable to allow me the full capacity of the hoist. I haven't had any problems with it and have used it often during the few months I've owned it. Just wish they had put a longer control cable on it for the push button box. I'd recommend this hoist to anyone that has an occasional use for a cable hoist. For more heavy duty use you need to spend a lot more money and this unit serves my need well."

A Great Decision,
April 14, 2008
By Eddie258
from Grantsville, MD...Northwestern mountains of MD
"We heat our home with a soapstone woodburning stove, and when we built our new house in 2005, we installed a small elevator to bring up the firewood to the main living floor. We used an old Powerwinch hoist to power the elevator; it did an adequate, but slow, job bringing up the wood, but it stripped its gear wheel this winter. We found the Northern Heavy-Duty Electric Hoist on-line and it fit our needs to a tee: it was very inexpensive, compared to other comparable hoists on the market, and it had the 2000 Lb. capacity we needed to bring up a weeks load of firewood. The added bonus was that it was extremely fast and only took about 20 seconds to bring up a load of wood from the ground, while the old hoist took approximately 3 minutes! We were also able to load a carload of groceries on top of the wood, which saved us several trips of hauling groceries up the stairs.
I would recommend the Northern Heavy-Duty Electric Hoist to anyone who has a need to lift heavy materials, whether they are a mechanic to lift heavy motors, a roofer to haul materials to top of the house, a contractor to lift building materials to the second floor, or just a homeowner, like myself, who needs to get heavy items into their second-story house. And, of course, the price was very affordable."

Northern Industrial Heavy-Duty Electric Hoist — 20,
January 15, 2008
By lodipoint
from Lodi, NY
"I bought this Hoist for the shop because of my bad Back. It works great and has saved my Back several times now. The one thing I did notice was, the Lifting capacity of 1000 lbs single line is not correct. I have a small Wave Runner which is 500 lb. or a little more. The Hoist would just quit and not try to lift it. I switched to the two line lift and it worked okay. For the money spent, It's worth it. Just don't plan to lift anything close to its 1000 or 2000 lb capacity."

2000 lb. hoist,
January 14, 2008
By skeet
from Longview, WA
"I've been using this hoist for about three weeks and I'm very happy with it so far. This unit is well built and has saved me a lot of work already. I've only lifted about 5-600 lbs. but it's handled that with ease. My only complaint (and the reason for 4 stars) is that the cords are too short. I've been able to work around this for now, but I plan to mount it on a trolley, and then I will definately need to install longer cords. I would recommend this hoist to anyone in the market, it is a great value for your hard earned dollars."

2000 lb hoist,
January 14, 2008
By Hoistman
from Maryland
"For light duty hoisting with intermitant use this prduct with price in mind is a good buy. I have attended many schools for all hoisting applications in the U.S. and in Findland and this hoist mimics the European style of conical drive motor braking technoligy. It is a reliable form of safe hoisting. When used in proper clasification it is the best buy I could find on the market and I have many crane resources."

1 Ton Electric Hoist,
January 14, 2008
By larryl47
from Ida, MI
"The hoist does have lots of lifting power and is very well built. The only down side is that the control wire is very short and makes it difficult to mount the unit very high off the ground. it needs to be about 10' long."
