Residential Dumbwaiters

Dumbwaiters are small freight elevators (or lifts) that connect two floors and are designed to carry materials; not people or animals. In residential settings, they are used to transport groceries, firewood, and laundry. Since dumbwaiters are really just mini elevators, they are designed with many of the same safety features as a regular passenger elevator. And just because they don't transport people, doesn't mean people don't get hurt using them. That's why they need to be installed and serviced by a licensed elevator professional.

Today's homeowner wants to maximize the investment in their homes by demanding products that enhance convenience and elegance. With the increasing popularity of multi-level homes, the dumbwaiter of yesteryear has become in demand again today. Vastly improved over those that were only associated in bygone years with estates, today's dumb-waiters offer affordable, efficient, quiet, and reliable convenience.

A long list of available options, capacities, and custom car sizes, facilitate a design that is tailor made to fit your needs. Dumbwaiters represent a stunning selling point for new homes and a wonderful touch when remodeling.
