Hi guys
Just looking for advice on how to make the installation of a 1200x800 stone resin tray easier.
I'm fitting a tray into a space with three walls, so obviously space is minimum.
The last time I did this I rigged up a pulley from the ceiling joists to raise and lower the tray into position. But setting up the pulley took an age.
What are your methods of dropping the tray in on to its mortar bed?

Tricky cos of weight and lack of access...

Stand the tray up on it's open (protected) edge then using say your suction grips + rope lay the tray over on mortar bed and tap tray down to spacer height.
