| For over a century J.R. Clancy has been
designing, manufacturing, and supplying specialty hoisting systems.
We provide everything from simple hand operated rigging hardware
to highly sophisticated automated systems for large moving ceilings,
acoustic canopies, and theatrical rigging systems. |
 |
| Quality Management System
|
|
| To ensure a consistently high
level of product and customer service J.R. Clancy has developed
a quality management system that has been certified as meeting
the ISO 9001:2000 standard. |
 |
| Obtaining this certification is part of
our quality commitment to owners, architects, consultants and
contractors we serve. What's more - we have the discipline and
desire to keep getting even better! That means you can expect
results that are consistently on-schedule, on-budget, and right
the first time. |
|
| Product Design &
Testing |
|
| Over 120 years of experience is complemented
by a strong design and engineering department, using the latest
tools to develop hoisting systems to meet your specific needs.
|
|
| This work is backed up by extensive product
testing. We utilize a 60' state-of-the-art indoor test tower
at our factory. This tower is used for load testing, cycle testing,
and product development. In addition, destructive testing is
conducted both in-house and at Intertek testing labs. |
|
| Over a Century of Innovations |
|
| John Clancy began designing and building
theatrical hoisting equipment in 1882 due to the lack of suitable
equipment at that time. Three years later he founded J.R. Clancy,
now one of the oldest and largest manufacturers of specialty
hoisting equipment in the world. Innovation, quality, safety
and value were John Clancy's legacy. |
|
In the 1960s Clancy built some of the first
automated rigging systems, offering position control and synchronization
of motors. These included reconfigurable auditoriums with movable
walls and ceilings to create different seating capacities, acoustic
characteristics, and appearances. Our current work ranges from
simple hoisting systems for banners and lighting to complex
architectural systems to transform rooms and acoustics.
