A alternative method to remove a plate with minimal lifting, and no beam, is to put the piano on its side. Place some rug between the plate edge and the rim. wiggle the plate out standing on its side without having to lift at all. This works very well with little stress on small grands up to 6 foot or so. With larger grands with heavy plates .......do get a lift.....ask me how I know.
