Convenience doesn’t have to just be inclusive of people and wheelchairs.
Dumbwaiters can also add an element of convenience in the home and business. They are used in restaurants, kitchens, labs, and other places that require the movement of goods in multi-floor applications.
Homes are great places to consider the addition of a dumbwaiter.
They can be used for laundry, groceries, firewood, and even decorations. Dumbwaiters can make using all levels of your home a reality.
The residential dumbwaiters manufactured by Fox Valley Elevator have a weight capacity of 100lbs to 200lbs depending on the model chose. Residential models have a travel speed of 30 FPM to 50FPM.
Dumbwaiters are also still being added to Commercial projects.
