Efficient Screw Pile Installation in Tight Spaces: Solutions with Our 400H and 700H Handheld Machines

When it comes to foundation solutions in tight or restricted spaces, traditional installation methods often fall short. That’s where our advanced screw pile (or helical pile) systems come into play. Using our compact yet powerful 400H and 700H handheld machines, we offer seamless and efficient solutions even in the most challenging environments.

Tight Spaces Installation

Why Screw Piles?

Screw piles are a popular choice for many construction projects due to their ease of installation, minimal environmental impact, and the ability to bear significant loads. They consist of steel shafts with helically shaped plates that are driven into the ground, providing a robust foundation that transfers building loads to deeper, more stable soil layers.

However, standard installation often requires heavy machinery and ample space—luxuries that aren’t always available on every job site.


The Challenge of Installation in Tight Spaces

Whether it’s urban construction with narrow alleyways, residential projects with limited yard space, or remote sites with difficult terrain, accessing and installing foundations in tight spaces can be daunting. These constraints can significantly increase project costs and timelines, not to mention the logistical headaches.


We have developed a solution for screw pile installations in tight and restricted spaces with our 400H and 700H handheld torque heads. Here’s how these innovative machines can revolutionize your construction process:

1. Compact and Portable

The 400H and 700H machines are designed to be easy to manoeuvre. This portability allows them to access areas where traditional equipment cannot fit. Whether you’re working in a basement, an alley, or an area surrounded by existing structures, these machines can get the job done without the need for extensive site preparation.

2. Powerful Performance

Don’t let their size fool you. Both the 400H and 700H pack a punch when it comes to torque and power. These machines can handle a wide range of screw pile sizes and lengths, making them versatile enough for various soil conditions and load requirements. The 400H is ideal for smaller residential projects, while the 700H offers the extra power needed for larger or more challenging installations.

3. Ease of Use

Our handheld machines come with intuitive controls and are designed for ease of use. Even in confined spaces, operators can quickly and efficiently install screw piles with minimal training. The ergonomic design minimises fatigue, allowing for longer operation times and faster project completion.

4. Reduced Environmental Impact

Using the 400H and 700H reduces the need for heavy machinery, which means less ground disturbance and a smaller carbon footprint. This is particularly beneficial in sensitive areas or projects that require adherence to strict environmental regulations.

5. Power Packs for Continuous Operation

Both the 400H and 700H machines are paired with robust power packs that ensure continuous and reliable performance. These power packs are designed to provide the necessary energy for extended operations without the need for frequent refueling or downtime.


Applications of 400H and 700H in Tight Spaces

Here’s how our handheld machines can be applied across various scenarios:

  • Urban Construction: Ideal for projects in dense urban settings where space is limited. The compact design allows for installation in back gardens, alleys, and other confined areas without disrupting the surroundings.

  • Basement Renovations: Perfect for reinforcing foundations or installing new supports in basements where ceiling height and access are restricted.

  • Remote Locations: Suitable for sites that are difficult to reach with traditional machinery, such as mountainous terrain or wooded areas.

  • Retrofitting Projects: Efficient for adding support to existing structures without the need for extensive demolition or modification.


Our 400H and 700H handheld machines offer a revolutionary approach to screw pile installation in tight and restricted spaces. By combining compact design, powerful performance, ease of use, and reduced environmental impact, these machines are transforming how foundations are installed in challenging environments.

If you’re facing space constraints on your next project, consider our handheld torque heads for a solution that delivers efficiency, reliability, and peace of mind. Contact us today to learn more about how our innovative technology can meet your construction needs.
