Effortless piano removal in total safety

For many years Jeffrey Shackell has moved concert grands to and from concert venues and until now this has needed the use of at times up to 4 or 5 men.  Jeffrey is now the first person in the UK to have the Klavier Roller system.  Developed in France by Bernard and Pascal Wintz the system allows the complete safe moving of a concert grand piano by just one man!

Jeffrey comments "For many years the moving of heavy concert grands has been a problem, a model D Steinway weighs in at about half a tonne.  Of course we have managed with the use of man power, but it is not always possible to get the right men just when you want them.  Klavier Roller has changed all that, I can now deliver a concert grand on my own with no effort at all".

The Klavier Roller is fully capable of climbing stairs and taking pianos on to any height of stage or platform.  The Klavier Roller looks after the piano much better in transit and puts no pressure on the instrument when moving from the horizontal position to vertical.  "It is even fun moving concert grands now" adds Jeffrey.

It goes without saying that the addition of the Klavier Roller puts Jeffrey in a competitive light for concert piano hire.

Jeffrey Shackell is the UK agent for Klavier Roller and is pleased to offer information and prices on request.
