Electric Service Lift in Zheng Restaurant

Dumb waiter Installation Speeds Up Service at Zheng Restaurant in Chelsea

The Tower Lifts installation team must have fitted thousands of dumb waiter lifts over the past fifteen years, but we never stop delighting in the long and productive life this ingenious invention continues to enjoy since its inception in 1879! The dumb waiter lift is at once a labour-saving device, and a service enhancement; it simply facilitates the speedy and efficient transportation of goods from one location to another, meaning that customers are served more quickly, food arrives hot from the kitchen, and staff can concentrate their attention where they are needed most.

Electric Service lift (Dumb waiter) installation in Chelsea, London

The Zheng restaurant in London provides its diners with a superb menu of Chinese-Malaysian dishes, created by a team of expert chefs. They wanted to find the most efficient solution to ensuring that food arrived at precisely the right temperature for their customers, and reduce the potential for staff collisions and spillages as they transported the food from the kitchen to the restaurant table. The Electric Service Lift increases the efficiency of any restaurant dramatically, and can be fitted quickly and with a minimum of disruption to the daily routines of the staff. We are delighted that Zheng chose Tower Lifts to complete their dumbwaiter installation.

The Dumbwaiter Lift Service That’s in High Demand

For a shop owner or restaurateur, however sophisticated technologies become, there are still basic human services that we enjoy and will continue to have to manage for decades to come – such as the efficient delivery of hot meals to our restaurant table, or the help and advice of retail assistants who can deliver the goods we need to the shop floor without delay. Whilst these interactions are intensely human, highly professional service depends upon technology to function at the highest level. The dumb waiter lift service was one of the earliest uses to which vertical transport technology was put, because it provided restaurants and busy hotels with the facility to get food to its customers piping hot, without requiring waiters to arrive red-face at the table having just run up numerous flights of stairs!

Dumb Waiter Lift Service Increases Productivity

Over the past few years our dumb waiter lift engineers have seen a steady rise in demand for this sturdy and resilient technology across catering, retail and domestic establishments. We have recently been working with leading brands such as Scuh, and JD Sports; their particular retail experience requires careful consultation with customers who can require four or five pairs of shoes being delivered to the shop floor before a choice is made. Rather than losing retail assistants from the shop floor – leaving customers waiting to be served – these shoe retailers decided to have a dumb waiter installed which would automate the delivery of goods to customers. The results have been measurable in the rise of productivity on the part of staff, and the increased satisfaction of customers.

Tower Lifts Install Dumbwaiter Lifts for a Variety of Functions

The New York inventor George Cannon patented the very first dumbwaiter lift in 1887; for over a century this ingenious method of transporting light goods, food and small objects between floors has continued to provide an essential service to commercial businesses and domestic properties alike. In the early days the dumbwaiter lift – or food lift – was operated using a pulley system; restaurants saw its potential at once, as did wealthy families with a large household to maintain – and a host of servants to maintain it!

Tower Lifts – Leading Suppliers of Dumbwaiter Lifts for the 21^st Century

We are proud to be continuing the tradition of George Cannon’s invaluable invention, although the fully automated dumbwaiter lifts we install for our clients in the 21^st century are a far cry from the early brake and pulley mechanical version. Dumbwaiter lifts are still very much in demand and as a leading dumbwaiter lift supplier we recognise that each installation is unique requiring bespoke design features that ensure reliability, efficiency, and the highest performance standards for the job it is required to fulfil.

Why Choose Tower Lifts as Your Dumbwaiter Lift Supplier?

Over the years we have accumulated the experience that guarantees you an excellent product, purpose-built to accommodate your needs, and installed to the highest standards. We take safety extremely seriously; all our dumbwaiter lifts are fitted with advanced safety features as a matter of course – these can be further enhanced if the lift is required in an environment (such as a private residence) where children are present.

Once your dumbwaiter lift is installed you’ll wonder how you ever managed without it. To ensure that you’ll never need to, we offer lift maintenance services to ensure optimum operational quality and reliability either on your newly-installed lift, or on an existing installation.

Commercial Dumbwaiters

How Commercial Dumbwaiters are Used

Dumbwaiter lifts were first used in the late 19-Century to transport food between floors. The first dumbwaiters were very simple systems involving ropes, pulleys and a small cart.

Today, modern dumbwaiter lifts use very powerful electric traction systems or hydraulic systems to pull heavy items very rapidly. Thousands of businesses across the United Kingdom use dumbwaiter lifts to rapidly move consumer items between floors. They are most commonly used in restaurants, pubs and bars to transport food and drinks from the food preparation to the staff on the serving floor.

Dumbwaiters are also used in factories, private homes and public buildings

They are a common sight in stock rooms, government offices, libraries and hospitals. Dumb waiter lifts can be used with very little training and can greatly increase worker productivity in any environment.

Our Bespoke Dumbwaiter Solutions

Tower Lifts can design and install the perfect dumbwaiter solution for your business. We will meet with you to gather your businesses requirements, then design a suitable dumbwaiter installation.

During the initial meetings, our experienced lift consultants will ask a number of questions to determine what is required of your dumbwaiter lift installation.  The questions will include:

• How much weight will your dumbwaiter be required to carry?
• How much space do you have for installing a dumb waiter lift shaft in your building?
• What size packages will the dumbwaiter be required to carry?
• How many floors will the dumbwaiter travel and how many stops should it have?

Once we have established the operational requirements for the lift, our expert lift engineers will design a solution to fit the bill

Our dumb waiters can also incorporate additional features including various forms of automation, self-closing fireproof doors, lockable doors and high speed motors for the extremely fast transport of goods.

Once our engineers have developed the right solution for your business, Tower Lift’s installation crews will install it on site.
