Piano Dollies – Equipment For Any Piano Moving Situation
Piano Dollies used to come with grand pianos in order to allow the pianos to be moved safely and easily from one area of the house or music room to another. Many older grand pianos found in homes across America are on the dollies that came with their unit and many people have thought that the wheels were part of the piano, not understanding that they can easily be removed, replaced and stored until the need to actually move a piano arises very easily.A traditional style grand piano mover is a 3 legged piece of equipment that, when folded up, is very compact and can easily fit into the side of a home closet or easily slide onto a shelf. The unit expands by allowing the legs to unfold by straightening them from the unit and then by extending the legs by adjusting them with a wrench. When purchasing a grand piano mover it is best to know the measurements of the distances between the legs of the piano. The piano dollies come in different sizes in order to allow for maximum strength with smaller sizes for storage purposes. Many units will expand several inches, even feet, away from the base, but having a piano dolly that is too short will not serve the intended purpose and may leave you having to carry one leg by yourself.A new grand piano mover has recently been introduced to the market that is much easier to setup and weighs less than traditional units, without sacrificing the strength needed to safely transport your piano. The new style of Grand Piano Dolly also has fewer adjustments to make in order to use it. The spider-like design of traditional units has been replaced by a straight line conventional design making the unit simple to setup, take down and store. There is no need to ever suffer from a sore back again from moving your grand piano. Be sure you have a grand piano dolly to help you along the way.
