We’re excited to announce the newest addition to the Patriot Lifting fleet a Grove GMK 5165 all-terrain crane. This powerful, versatile machine expands our capabilities and reinforces our commitment to delivering reliable, high-performance crane service across Georgia and beyond.
Whether it’s large industrial installs, precast placements, or multi-crane operations, this crane gives our team more strength, reach, and flexibility on every job.
Built for Power and Precision
The Grove GMK 5165 is a heavy lifter at heart. It offers:
A 165-US-ton lifting capacity, giving serious muscle for tough jobs
A six-section, full-power boom that extends from roughly 42 ft up to 197 ft, expanding reach dramatically compared with smaller units
A hydraulically-powered boom and TWIN-LOCK® pinning system for fast, secure section changes on the fly
A versatile 36-59 ft swingaway jib for extended reach and varied rigging configurations
This combination gives the GMK 5165 both high lifting capacity and excellent flexibility in positioning challenging loads from structural steel to plant equipment and more.
Smooth Travel and Jobsite Mobility
All-terrain cranes like the GMK 5165 are designed to go where the work is. Key mobility features include:
MEGATRAK™ independent hydro-pneumatic suspension that keeps all wheels grounded, improving stability and ride comfort between sites
All wheel steering that enhances maneuverability on busy or tight jobsites
A capable engine and transmission that balance on-road travel speed with off-road control, helping us get to jobs faster and safer
This crane doesn’t just lift heavy it moves heavy jobs forward faster.
Designed for Efficiency and Safety
The GMK 5165 brings features that matter in real work:
The MEGAFORM™ boom design improves load performance and strength while reducing overall weight, boosting efficiency for heavy lifts
The TWIN LOCK boom pinning system simplifies and speeds rig setup, lowering downtime between picks
Multiple counterweight configurations allow us to adapt the machine to each job’s unique balance and lift demands
Less setup time and more reliable performance mean we can deliver even more value and responsiveness to every project we serve.
What This Means for Our Customers
Adding the Grove GMK 5165 to the Patriot Lifting fleet means:
Greater capacity for larger, more complex lifts
Faster mobilization and jobsite deployment
Enhanced flexibility for jobs that require long reach or specialized boom configurations
Improved reliability and performance thanks to industry proven design
