Industrial Elevators
Scaffolding Solutions will provide a safe, efficient, turnkey industrial elevator for your project. Whether you’re decommissioning a building or temporarily shutting down for maintenance/repairs, an industrial elevator will save you tremendous time and money.
Our Professional Engineers (PE) will custom-design and evaluate an elevator solution that meets your exact needs. We rigorously test each hoist in our shop and then once again in the field to ensure all safety components work as intended, providing you safe and reliable performance with no downtime.
About Industrial Elevators
Industrial elevators offer a reliable and durable temporary access solution for industrial facilities of all types. You’ll be able to efficiently transport materials and workers to elevated areas while eliminating the need for expensive cranes and other equipment.
An industrial elevator setup from Scaffolding Solutions includes:
- Car (one or two)
- Track
- Dedicated operator
- Drive system
- Multiple safety systems
- Concrete pad
- Compliance with ANSI 10.4 and other federal, state, and local regulations
- State and local permits (we handle)
Advantages of Industrial Elevators
An industrial elevator offers many advantages for your next project.
No Height Restrictions
A typical (single-car) industrial elevator installation is between 10 and 50 stories in height. However, you can still install an elevator on buildings below 10 stories. If your building is over 15 stories, consider using a dual-car setup for increased productivity. Buildings over 50 stories in height often require a high-speed elevator.
Efficient and Cost-Effective
Industrial elevators eliminate the need for expensive cranes and associated equipment. You’ll be able to more efficiently get materials and people up and down by using a dedicated elevator versus a crane or other hoist. Removing construction debris is also very easy, as the car can handle up to 7,100 lbs.
Multiple Safety Features
Limit switches, automatic brakes, heavy-duty cages, and safety hatches are just a few of the many safety features of an industrial elevator. Scaffolding Solutions also provides a monthly maintenance service that includes:
- Checking wear items (rollers, etc.)
- Maintaining the hoist
- Checking the limit switches
- Ensuring the track is adequately greased
