In the counter-top fabrication business, the biggest and most serious problem is the movement of material. The biggest reason for concern is that kitchen countertop pieces, on average, weigh 200 to 400 pounds while islands can weigh up to 1200 pounds. The racks used to transport pieces are normally 4 to 8 inches tall off the ground which is just enough room for the forks of a forklift to raise the rack. Therefore, installers must squat all the way to the ground to lift the pieces. The invention we created is an easy lift kit raising the height of the countertop material as high as possible on the rack while still being able to travel safe. We are lifting the rack as high as possible to get reach what OSHA calls the “power zone” for lifting. We have invented six different designs to accomplish this goal.
