System, apparatus, device, kit, method and associated technique for safely and securely lifting wall and other structures to a vertical position. An electronic winch device that when connected to an end of a wall structure lifts the structure. A keeper or catchment such that when the electronic winch has hoisted the wall structure to a substantially vertical position, catches and keeps the wall structure in place, allowing the technician to more properly secure the wall structure. The apparatuses are also designed for portability and collapsibility, with structural members telescoping inside one another to minimize size in transport but securely configurable when extended and locked into place.
