== Introduction ==

Installed in a wide variety of businesses and buildings, service lifts are suitable for almost every environment. Aiding in the facilitation of the transportation of goods, service lifts are more flexible solutions than other lifts due to not being intended for human use.

Utilising electric traction for movement, service lifts have a reduced weight capacity. Vital for industries with requirements such as low headrooms and reduced pits, these lifts are capable of being installed in only a few days.

Without compromising safety and security, service lifts transport goods between multi-storey buildings in an efficient and timely way.

* Hotels
* Hospitals
* Restaurants
* Schools
* Pubs
* Offices

== Dumb Waiter Lifts ==

Also known as food lifts and micro-lifts, dumb waiter lifts are the preferred choice for transporting food between floors. Dating back to approximately 200 BC, dumb waiter lifts were used by the Romans to carry goods. In the 1840s, the mechanical version of the lift was invented by New Yorker inventor George W Cannon.

Previously human-powered, dumb waiter lifts evolved to electrically motorised versions in the 1920s due to the industrial revolution. With different building and regulation requirements in the 21st century, the necessity for state-of-the-art dumb waiter lifts has risen.

== Trolley Lifts ==

Unlike dumb waiter lifts, trolley lifts are utilised for situations in which larger and heavier loads need to be transported. Commonly required in commercial buildings, retail, and hotels, trolley lifts can service as many floors as dumb waiter lifts. Although slightly slower, trolley lifts are easily installed and sturdy.

Whether leaf gated, single-hinged, or locked variants, doors easily meet the varied requirements for loads and building sizes.

== Utilising Service Lifts ==

Utilised mainly in buildings and industries such as restaurants and hotels, service lifts allow for goods to be moved through a multi-storey building more conveniently. Removing the necessity for carrying the goods, these lifts allow for their expedient movement to the desired floor.

In addition, service lifts allow for space optimisation, as they occupy less space than other lifts. Following building regulations and adapting to a business’ needs, service lifts are efficient and improve the level of productivity.

Dumb waiter lifts are extremely efficient, as they reduce the necessity for walking. Improving productivity both in time saved and in labour, goods are more easily and quickly transported, which increases businesses’ profit.

With minimal physical strain, service lifts reduce the physical stress of carrying and transporting heavy goods in multi-storey buildings, which is beneficial for all industries.
