One name is set to make a major shift in the construction, oil and gas, and mining industries worldwide – the Grid Hook Gold. Created by Just Persevere Pty Ltd, it is a snap hook purposely designed to lift walkway grating and grid mesh, offering the latest, safest, and most cost-effective solution for these applications. The device outperforms traditional wire slings, which have long been plagued by workplace injuries and inefficiencies.
What makes Grid Hook Gold special?
The Grid Hook Gold is a purpose-built solution designed in Australia by industry professionals David Milne and Gareth Winn. With over 60 combined years of rigging experience, they lived through the challenges of lifting walkway grating.

Traditional methods for lifting walkway grating pose serious risks to worker safety. Wire slings and chains rely on single-point securing methods. Thus, they can fail catastrophically if the single connection point gives way or becomes disengaged, causing the entire load to drop without any backup system to prevent it. Furthermore, the bent wires lead to cuts, pinprick injuries, and dangerous recoil. One of the inventors experienced this firsthand when a wire sling made a deep cut through his cheek. Safety glasses prevented what could have been a serious eye injury.
Determined to create a safer, more effective solution, David and Gareth developed the Grid Hook Gold. It is built from industrial-grade SAE 4130 steel (i.e. material used in high-stress structural applications). Unlike conventional lifts, the device has a double-locking mechanism that prevents accidental release, even if gravity is lost during lifting. In the video below, you can see the Grid Hook Gold’s installation steps in action.

Customer success and recognition
The Grid Hook Gold devices have been working tirelessly on worksites as the word of their benefits spread. Monadelphous, a leading construction company in the oil, gas and mining industries, is a purchaser of the Grid Hook Gold. Their experience is a case in point: what was planned as a three-day floor mesh installation turned into a single-day project when they switched to the Grid Hook Gold for lifting walkway grating. The Grid Hook more than doubled the speed of lifting and installing walkway grating. This saving is significant as the crane and six workers could be redeployed for other construction work around the plant two days earlier than planned.
The pursuit of safer and more efficient workflows is why crews are making the switch. Several large companies in Australia have updated their standard operating procedures to mandate the use of Grid Hook Gold, completely prohibiting wire slings for grating installation.
Moreover, the device's success has driven rapid international expansion. Construction firms in North America (United States and Canada), Europe (Spain, France, Norway, and the Netherlands), and the Middle East (United Arab Emirates) have integrated this lifting method into their operations.

Safety compliance
The product undergoes load testing at two and a half times its lifting capacity and maintains a 10.9:1 safety factor, which significantly outperforms traditional chains (4:1) and soft slings (7:1). It complies with Australian, EU, and American standards for lifting equipment and carries the CE mark for European Union sales.
Quality assurance
Every Grid Hook Gold undergoes rigorous quality control. Their manufacturing partner, Usang Industrial, provides certificates of testing that document material specifications, load test results, and quality assurance compliance. For traceability, each device carries a laser-engraved serial number recorded in a database with purchase and invoice information.
Conclusion
The Grid Hook Gold is an improved way for walkway grating installation designed by industry experts. This device essentially improves worker safety and efficiency. Companies that have adopted the Grid Hook Gold experienced faster installation times and reduced workplace injuries. With its compliance with international standards and rigorous quality control, the Grid Hook Gold is poised to become the go-to solution for walkway grating installation worldwide as more firms recognise its benefits and update their standard operating procedures accordingly.
In 2025, Just Persevere Pty Ltd partnered with Hectool – a B2B industrial marketplace. Hectool is proud to contribute to the widespread adoption of the Grid Hook Gold. Now, the device for lifting industrial walkway grating and grid mesh is available for purchase on Hectool.com.
