For any business that moves heavy, bulky, or unusual cargo, a standard elevator often isn’t enough. When your project has special needs, you need a solution that’s built just for you. That’s where the power of a customize freight elevator comes in.
At TOWARDS ELEVATOR, we understand that every warehouse, factory, and industrial facility is different. For twenty years, we’ve specialized in creating elevator solutions that fit the exact job, not the other way around. This guide will show you how a custom-built freight elevator can handle your toughest challenges in four key areas: weight capacity, car size, door configurations, and smart control systems.
Imagine trying to fit a large piece of factory machinery or a loaded pallet through a regular doorway—it’s frustrating and inefficient. Non-standard projects demand non-standard solutions. A custom freight elevator transforms vertical transport from a bottleneck into a seamless, safe, and powerful part of your operation. It’s about making the elevator work for you, so you can move goods faster, safer, and with less hassle.
The most basic question for a freight elevator is: how much can it carry? While standard models might work for common loads, special jobs need special strength.
Beyond Standard Weights: We build elevators engineered to handle massive, concentrated weights that ordinary lifts can’t. Whether you need to move heavy industrial equipment, multiple vehicles, or dense materials, we design the structure, motor, and cables to meet your precise load requirements.
Engineered for Safety: Every custom capacity is matched with reinforced safety systems. This ensures that even at maximum load, the elevator operates with smooth, reliable, and absolute stability, protecting both your cargo and your facility.
If your cargo is extra-long, extra-wide, or an unusual shape, the elevator car must fit it perfectly. A custom-sized cabin is the solution.
Tailored to Your Cargo: We don’t just make the cabin bigger; we design its exact dimensions (length, width, and height) around what you need to move. This is essential for transporting everything from long steel beams and oversized machinery to parked cars in a multi-level garage.
Maximizing Efficiency: A cabin built to your specifications eliminates wasted space and awkward loading. It allows for efficient movement in tight areas and ensures every transport trip is as productive as possible.
How you load and unload the elevator is just as important as the ride itself. The right door setup keeps the workflow smooth.
Flexible Access Options: We offer a variety of door types to suit your space:
Bi-Parting Doors: These are classic industrial doors that open from the center, ideal for wide openings.
Vertical Lift Doors: Perfect where ceiling space is limited, they lift straight up like a garage door.
Special Layouts: Doors can be placed on one, two, or even three sides of the cabin for flexible loading in confined or complex areas.
Match Your Workflow: The goal is to connect your elevator seamlessly with your dock, hallway, or production area, making loading instant and intuitive.
Today’s freight elevators are about more than just buttons. Intelligent control systems make them safer and easier to use.
Purpose-Built Operation: We can tailor the control panel for your specific operators, with clear instructions and access controls.
Advanced Features: Custom systems can include features like timed operation for efficiency, priority floor access, or integration with other building automation for a smarter facility.
