Hub Elevator supplies, installs and maintains dumbwaiter lifts across Pakistan. A dumbwaiter pays for itself in labour: every trip it makes is a tray, crate or trolley that a person did not carry up a staircase.
A dumbwaiter is a small goods lift built to carry items, not people. It runs in its own compact shaft between two or more floors, with a service hatch at each level, usually at counter height or floor level. Because it carries no passengers, it needs far less space and building work than a passenger lift.
We size a dumbwaiter on what it carries and how often: the heaviest load, the size of the tray or trolley, the number of floors, where the hatches go and how many trips an hour it must make. Stainless-steel cars are standard for food and hospital use. We confirm everything at a free site survey and give an itemised quote.
The price depends on capacity, car size, number of floors, hatch type (counter-level or floor-level), car material and the building work needed for the shaft. A two-floor home kitchen dumbwaiter and a heavy-duty hospital service lift are different machines. Hub Elevator provides an itemised quote after a free site survey.
Goods only: food trays, crockery, linen, files, medicines, samples and small stock. Dumbwaiters are not designed or certified to carry people.
Far less than a passenger lift. A compact kitchen dumbwaiter needs a small shaft footprint and little or no pit, which is why it can often be added to an existing building with limited building work.
Yes. Most dumbwaiters are retrofitted. We survey the building, find the best route for the shaft between floors and plan the hatch positions around your kitchen or service area.
Yes. Doors, interlocks, ropes and the drive need regular checks, especially in busy restaurant and hospital kitchens. We offer annual maintenance contracts to prevent breakdowns during service.
Tell us what you need to move, how heavy it is and between which floors. We will recommend the right dumbwaiter and arrange a free site survey.
