Drum drive lifts

Among the lift solutions which we often provide, for sites where there is a pre-existing lift shaft, are lifts with a drum drive system. This type of lift is ideal where shaft conditions are complex or where the available space is unusually limited, a common problem in conversion projects and jobs involving listed buildings.

Drum drive lifts do not require a counterweight, thereby freeing up available shaft space and allowing larger lift cars to be installed, especially useful where space is at a premium.
