When high-capacity lifting is essential to your operation, and every minute of downtime counts, entrust your system to a leader. At O’Brien|Source, a leader in lifting solutions for Canadian businesses, we have a dedicated service office for overhead cranes in Windsor. We offer full support across Ontario, understanding that overhead crane systems are mission-critical.
Whether you operate a single bridge crane or a complex plant network, our team stands ready to keep you moving efficiently.

This means your overhead crane investment is protected and your operations supported locally.
Comprehensive Service & Parts Support
A reliable lifting solution depends on more than just a good crane. It depends on service, parts, and support, every day of the year. At O’Brien|Source, you benefit from:
- A large inventory of replacement parts—one of the largest in North America—so when a breakdown happens, you’re not waiting weeks.
- Technicians trained on virtually all makes and models of overhead cranes, hoists, and supporting structures—even those we didn’t build ourselves.
- A service model built to respond quickly and restore operations, minimizing lost production time.
For your Windsor facility, this kind of service level ensures that whether you need a standard repair or rapid parts intervention, you’re covered.
Preventative Maintenance That Works
Rather than wait for a failure, the more strategic approach is to maintain. Our preventative maintenance services are designed to extend equipment life, reduce downtime, and keep you compliant. At O’Brien|Source, we provide:
- Inspections that cover all functions and safety devices—including load hooks, chains, wire rope, gearboxes, brakes, electrical contacts, and structural stress points on runways.
- Written reports and inspection certificates, supporting regulatory compliance under provincial safety standards.
- Customized maintenance packages based on crane usage, duty classification, operating environment, and hours of service—a one-size-fits-all approach.
For Windsor’s industrial business — whether automotive, manufacturing, logistics, or cross-border warehousing — this means predictable maintenance and fewer surprises.
Engineering & Upgrade Services Through Our London & Regional Office
When your facility in Windsor demands more than standard service, like when you’re expanding, retrofitting your crane system, introducing automation, or addressing structural changes, the engineering team at O’Brien|Source delivers. From our London branch, serving southwestern Ontario, and from our home office in Burlington, we provide:
- In-house structural analysis, custom crane design, certified drawings, letters of compliance, and full documentation.
- Solutions for crane automation, remote controls, advanced control systems, and modernization of older crane fleets.
- Integration of renovated or upgraded crane systems to meet evolving production demands with minimal disruption.
If your Windsor facility is evolving with new product lines, increased capacity, or automation initiatives, we have the engineering capability you need, locally accessible.
