How much lateral force do you think you are fighting with the hinge strength (unknowable) and a rope (pick your strength, as much) in order to hold it to the lay?

Have you worked from a basket? I have worked from a rope, double tie-in. Baskets move in reaction to cutting. I don't think back-chaining works.

A strong rope will do the job, maybe with less force than you might expect. Like with a pull-line. Height gives leverage. You're not trying to lift it, just prevent something somewhat balanced from tipping the wrong way.

Everyone will use a lift. Price it for the lift, plus overhead on the lift.
