This 15-foot-wide, 400-foot-long boardwalk will be supported by timber piles that require careful installation on a challenging, narrow site.<\/p>\n<p>Challenge<br \/>\nThis job demands precise equipment that can handle limited access and ensure safety while keeping the process efficient. Traditional, large pile-driving rigs would be too bulky for the restricted work area, making it necessary to find an alternative that maintains both performance and safety.<\/p>\n<p>Solution: MG-60 Side Grip Pile Driver<br \/>\nThe MG-60 side grip pile driver proved to be the ideal solution for Kingfisher Construction. As John Mercer shared, \u201cThe MG-60 operates reliably, and the controls and user interface are well thought out and easy to work with. It has been great to work with on this job.\u201d<br \/>\nWith the side grip, John and his team were able to set and drive piles in the tight, embankment-adjacent work zone, a task that would have been impossible with traditional equipment. The MG-60 allowed for easier maneuvering, and its efficient design sped up the process while enhancing safety.<\/p>\n<p>Results<br \/>\nBy using the MG-60, Kingfisher Construction achieved several key benefits:<\/p>\n<p>Improved Site Accessibility: The compact design allowed the team to work in restricted areas without needing larger, cumbersome equipment.<br \/>\nOptimized Safety: With the MG-60\u2019s secure grip and reduced need for extra equipment on-site, the team was able to safely work around overhead obstructions and maintain control during pile installation.<br \/>\nIncreased Efficiency: Rigging time was reduced, helping Kingfisher Construction stay on schedule.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-14905\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gilbert-tech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/DSCF6067-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"250\" height=\"376\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gilbert-tech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/DSCF6067-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.gilbert-tech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/DSCF6067-682x1024.jpg 682w, https:\/\/www.gilbert-tech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/DSCF6067-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.gilbert-tech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/DSCF6067-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.gilbert-tech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/DSCF6067-1365x2048.jpg 1365w, https:\/\/www.gilbert-tech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/DSCF6067-scaled.jpg 1706w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 250px) 100vw, 250px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-14903\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gilbert-tech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/DSCF6053-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"464\" height=\"309\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gilbert-tech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/DSCF6053-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.gilbert-tech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/DSCF6053-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.gilbert-tech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/DSCF6053-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.gilbert-tech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/DSCF6053-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.gilbert-tech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/DSCF6053-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 464px) 100vw, 464px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-14901\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gilbert-tech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/DSCF6023-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"250\" height=\"375\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gilbert-tech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/DSCF6023-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.gilbert-tech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/DSCF6023-682x1024.jpg 682w, https:\/\/www.gilbert-tech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/DSCF6023-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.gilbert-tech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/DSCF6023-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.gilbert-tech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/DSCF6023-1365x2048.jpg 1365w, https:\/\/www.gilbert-tech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/DSCF6023-scaled.jpg 1706w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 250px) 100vw, 250px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kingfisher Construction chose to work with Alessi Equipment on the purchase of a Gilbert Multi-Grip MG-60 Pile Driver to enhance their infrastructure projects.
