Carry Heavy Panels with Ease

Leave a Comment

panelcarrierAnyone who has carried huge panels of sheetrock, glass or titanium armor plating knows what back-breaking awkward work it can be. Gross Stabil (that’s the company name, not a description) makes some heavy duty panel carriers designed for two people.

Each device has a handle and two rubber coated cams that slide onto a panel of your choosing, allowing you to easily carry it at a convenient height. Although this tool is made by a German company (meaning it must be well-made), their website cautions against its use with cranes! The next time I am carrying titanium armor (or maybe sheetrock) I’ll grab a pair. For a great one person panel carrier, check out the Gorilla Gripper.
You can pick up yours from Gross Stabil for about $60 a pair.

About Marc Lyman

Marc grew up under a brave single mom who "encouraged" home improvement on the family home. Early toddler gifts included a tool set, and even a cordless Bosch drill when cordless drills first came out. In grade school (give or take a few years), Marc's mom said, "We need to cut down some trees. . . . here's a chainsaw." A father figure also involved Marc in many home improvement projects, including a summer of home remodeling in Palo Alto, CA. Toss in some Obsessive Compulsive personality traits researching everything home improvement related. The end result: a genetically pre-disposed, socially sculpted home improvement machine! For his complete profile, please visit our About page. Really, it's worth it.
