Hydraulic lifts

A direct suspension system with a simple or split piston. It is the simplest way to lift any load up to about six metres of travel, and it needs the least headroom, which is why it suits low rise buildings and retrofits into finished houses.

Oil is part of the machine. A hydraulic lift draws more power going up than a counterweighted traction machine, and almost none coming down. We do not sell this line above G+4, because hydraulic stops being economical past about fifteen metres of travel.

How it is built

No counterweight, no machine room, no gear above your head

A piston pushes the car from below. The pump, tank and valve block sit in a cabinet at the lowest landing rather than in a room above the shaft, which is why the headroom requirement is so much smaller than a traction lift of the same capacity.

Dimensions, direct suspension

Eight capacities, from 204 kg to 1088 kg

Note what happens to the pit as the load climbs. It stays at 350 mm to 544 kg, which is what makes this line workable in a finished house where nobody wants to break the ground floor slab.

Tell us the building. We will tell you the number.

Hydraulic wins on pit depth and headroom and loses on running cost. If your building is low rise and the pit is the problem, send the two measurements and we will confirm it fits.

  • A free site survey. The drawings are yours whether or not you order.
  • An itemised quotation, with the licence and the designer cabin already inside it.
  • A written completion date, and interest paid by us if we miss it.
