Space Saving & Compact Lifts

Space Saving Lifts (1400mm Wide Lift Shafts)

Our space saving lifts have been redesigned as the most space efficient passenger lifts in the UK.

Incredibly versatile to suit the needs of restrictive design challenges when space is of a premium, the ultra compact lift range is available for load bearing shafts in traditional construction or with an alternative frame mounted solution for Modern Methods of Construction (MMC).All compact lifts are available as single or double entry through-car landing entrance configurations.

A fully compliant BS EN 81-20 pit depth of 1080mm can be achieved greatly assisting projects with ground works limitations.

Generally speaking no, a traditional masonry or bespoke lift shaft is not required in an MMC building and increases time and cost.

Ideal Lifts have for many years engaged and worked closely with MMC designers and manufactures gaining an understanding in their processes and developed building specific solutions.
