Frequently asked questions
What type of passenger lift is suitable for me – traction or hydraulic?

These are both types of technology that are highly effective for driving lifts, including low headroom passenger lifts.

As for which option would be most suitable for your reduced headroom lift, in high-rise buildings that see high passenger usage, a traction lift is likely to be the best solution. In a low-rise building, however, a hydraulic passenger lift will probably be the most competitive choice.

Do I need a machine room?

Whether you choose a hydraulic or traction lift, we can provide both types in MRL (machine room less) form, which would mean there is no need for a machine room.

What types of buildings are suitable for a low headroom lift?

A hydraulic low headroom passenger lift is likely to be the best all-round choice for a smaller building with fewer than three floors, as is the case for many small office premises, restaurants, schools, and residential homes.

If, on the other hand, the building where you are seeking to have a reduced headroom lift installed has a higher number of floors – such as three, four, or above – this is the kind of setting in which the somewhat faster traction lift will probably make much more sense.

How much does a pitless passenger lift cost?

Pitless passenger lifts have become more affordable in recent times, thanks largely to major advances in pitless lift technology. This type of lift also tends to be simpler in design and easier to install than a pit lift, which further helps drive down labour time and costs.

However, the exact price of having pitless passenger lifts designed, manufactured, and installed at your premises will intend on the specifics of your intended installation.
