Tying into the wider regeneration of Barking Town Centre, Axe Street is a landmark scheme that provides high quality Build to Rent homes along with commercial and leisure facilities, transforming the former Abbey Sports Centre into a vibrant civic quarter and visitor destination. NTP supplied 2 fully enclosed passenger & goods machines to help distribute men and materials throughout the build. 

Hoist 1 had a safe working load of 2200kg and a top landing height of 41m. The machine fed 12 landings and ran at a speed of 60 mpm

Hoist 2 had a safe working load of 2200kg and a top landing height of 35m. This machine fed 10 landings and ran at a speed of 60 mpm 

These machines were installed over multiple visits to suit the requirements of the site. Upon completion of the installations, NTP provided operator familiarisation to multiple site personnel which ensured they were competent to operate the hoists safely. All those that successfully completed the familiarisation course were issued with ‘competence cards’ to show that they were able to operate the machines safely.

All in all a very successful project for NTP and one that we are proud to have been a part of.Â
