Previous in our post we have shown that the small goods lift is not just the prerogative of restaurants and hotels. We have shown how it can make work easier in healthcare facilities or even office buildings. But now we go further: we show how it can also be an excellent investment for industrial facilities and private homes, and perhaps most importantly, we look at how it can be adapted to the needs of almost any building. If you've ever thought that a small goods lift was a standard box that either fit into your building or not, you're in for a surprise.
Industrial facilities and warehouses
Where small goods are moved regularly between several levels, a small goods lift is often a more efficient solution than a full-fledged goods lift. Lower purchase and running costs, less space required, faster installation. These medium sized in warehouses and small plants are all in favour.
A worker who has to carry boxes several times a day from the lower warehouse to the packing department or office floor can easily calculate how much energy and time can be saved by such a device.
Private houses and residential buildings
Perhaps surprisingly, the number of private house owners who are installing a small goods lift in their multi-storey house is increasing, as practical and convenient solution for example, to transport shopping or clothes from the laundry room from floor to floor.
It can also greatly increase comfort for elderly or disabled residents. These installations can be retrofitted, and the floor area of the shaft is usually around 0.8×1.0 m, which can be accommodated even in a small multi-storey building. The value for money is also good: such a system costs a fraction of the price of a full passenger lift, while providing a similar improvement in daily comfort.
The customisability
One of the greatest strengths of the Daldoss Microlift is that it is not available in one design.
It is up to the customer to decide which design to choose, depending on the application. This is the flexibility that most competing products cannot match.
- The loading hatch can be at floor level (e.g. for palletised goods) or waist height (e.g. for restaurant trays) - whichever best serves your daily work.
- The cabin can be fitted with removable shelves, which is handy when smaller items need to be transported in several portions.
- Doors can be either double sliding or hinged, with or without fire doors. This is particularly important in hospital and catering environments.
- Openings can be created on up to three sides of a floor if the layout of the space allows.
- The cab fixed Of steel or stainless steel (AISI 304).
- The modular tower structure can be covered with any type of cladding: plasterboard, glass, wood, so that the lift is visually integrated into the room and does not detract from the overall appearance of the interior
This flexibility means that Microlift can be easily integrated into a modern Scandinavian-style restaurant, a sterile hospital corridor, a winery with a vaulted cellar or a minimalist private villa.
Quick and easy installation
One of the most common misconceptions is that installing a dumbwaiter or small goods lift is a lengthy, disruptive and expensive construction job. In fact, because of the modular system, it is can be completed in a few days in most cases, separate mechanical room and load-bearing reinforced concrete without a window.
At the beginning of the installation, after surveying the site, our specialists will draw up a customized design, taking into account the statics of the building and the available space. Once the approval documents have been submitted, the approval time is typically 30 days, followed by installation and handover.
When is it worth it?
If at least one of the following applies to your business or building, you should consider installing a small goods lift:
- There are several levels of operations and moving goods is a regular, time-consuming task.
- Staff work in physically demanding conditions because of the transport between floors.
- The quality of guest service or patient care is compromised when staff spend a lot of time travelling between the warehouse and the work area.
- They work in hospital, pharmacy or other hygiene-sensitive environments where enclosed transport is required.
- In a private home, you want to increase comfort and efficiency with a simple retrofit solution.
A small goods lift is not a luxury, but a smart, quick-return decision that makes a positive difference in almost every area, from working conditions to food quality to guest and patient comfort.
