We was recently approached by a main contractor regarding a care home lift, who had issues on site with flooding. They had recently built a care home for the end client but the site flooded, meaning that the lift pit had been covered in water and damaged parts. The previous lift company had supplied a hydraulic lift meaning many parts were damaged in the floods.
Hi-Tec Lifts suggested an MRL traction passenger lift for the care home with a reduced headroom. This way if flooding ever occurred again, then the lift components would be above the water level, meaning no damage. We also assisted with sealing the lift pit and using a sump pump as a back up.
This care home lift needed a one stop shop from Hi-Tec Lifts as it is now an operational care home. The passenger lift was removed by us within a week, whilst leaving the site safe and looking the same to the end client.
An MRL traction passenger lift is an excellent solution over other types of lift. These lifts offer end clients many features and benefits including BREEAM eco-efficiency credits, fast service, no motor room requirement, reduced headroom option and smooth / silent operation.
We have installed thousands of lifts over the years and offer a bespoke range of lifts throughout the UK.
We offer the complete range of passenger lift products, all of which are fully open protocol including:-
- Passenger lifts (from 2 person to 33 person)
- Glass lifts
- Scenic lifts or Panoramic lifts
- Bespoke lifts (from 2 person to 33 person)
- Home lifts
All of our lifts are open protocol which means that any company can service or repair our lift products in the future. We offer a standard range of lifts but also offer fully bespoke solutions with any car size, load, door size or interior you want.
We even have a home lift that can move people and light goods on only single phase power. Our home lift range is a passenger lift with many advantages such as small lift pit, reduced headroom, full compliance to machinery directive and it feels and looks the same as a normal passenger lift. This home lift can be supplied with a steel structure and Hi-Tec can do all the associated builders and electrical work, giving you a one stop shop.
So if you have a project with a passenger lift or home lift on then please contact us if we can help at all for any lift repair or modernisation work, we also offer free site surveys and like to be involved from conception to completion.
