Trolley lift floor level lifts | George Johnson Lifts

A floor level serving lift, more commonly known as a Trolley lift, is ideal for moving heavy or large goods. Commonly used in restaurants for moving deliveries or taking trolleys between levels.

Available with either a hinged door, or concertina shutter gate, at the entrances, the lift car is also fitted with a lattice gate to ensure all goods are kept within the lift car.

Depending on your requirements this style of lift will fit into one of two categories.

Service Lift

Car size up to maximum of 1000 mm wide x 1000 mm deep x 1200 mm high
Capacity up to 250 kg
Keeping the size of the lift within these parameters ensures the cost is kept lower for a more economic unit

Goods Lifts

Car size up to 1200 mm wide x 1500 mm deep x 2000 mm high.

German engineering: Manufactured in the centre of the German industrial heartland, BKG Service Lifts really are the high quality, well-engineered product that you would expect from a German based manufacturer.

Electricity supply: Most industrial premises operate from a three-phase electric supply, however smaller properties frequently have only single phase available. These small lifts can be manufactured to suit either situation.

Builder’s work drawings: Each lift will be provided with a site-specific Builder’s Work drawing, detailing works required prior to and after installation. A full electrical specification is also incorporated.

Builder’s Work: The necessary builder’s work for this lift includes;

Cutting the required size opening through each floor.
Forming the enclosure, (normally made from timber stud & plasterboard, metal stud and fireboard, Brickwork or blockwork). The lift is provided in a galvanised self-supporting structure which, in most cases, negates the need for a load bearing shaft.
Running an electric power supply to the lift shaft.

Fast manufacture and delivery: Even with complete customisation, these lifts are competitively priced, efficiently manufactured and usually available in 5 - 6 weeks.

Health & Safety at Work legislations: This BKG range satisfies the requirements and minimises the risks associated with Manual Handling and Health and Safety at Work legislation.

Flexibility: The flexibility of the BKG range means these lifts are ideal for use in bars, shops, public houses, warehouses, factories, bakeries, storage premises, hotels, hospitals, schools, nightclubs, airports and golf clubs.
