A lightwell lift can operate up to 2 stops from basement to pavement level.

To be able to specify a goods lift we would need to know:

• What you are wanting to lift
• The size opening of the building
• How everything is packaged
• The floor-to-floor height of the lift space
• How the lift will be loaded (i.e. wheeled or lifted on)
• The required size and dimensions of the goods lift
• Plans of the building, if possible

All goods lifts have a lead time of 4–6 weeks from placing the order.

Extremely versatile, our Loading Bay Lifts can be installed both inside and outside to suit a range of working conditions and environments, with very little to no alteration required.

Our loading Lifts here at Penny Hydraulics are able to lift goods between levels where the height is up to 1.5 metres.

A warehouse loading bay lift is a goods only lift that is designed to run between two floor levels where the difference is less than 1.5 metres. They do not necessarily need to be fitted to a loading bay.

Loading Bay Lifts can be purchased directly from Penny Hydraulics. For more information and advice, please do not hesitate to get in touch with our dedicated team today.

Installing a Loading Bay Lift in your premises ensures that your workers are adhering to correct health and safety procedures and that your pallets, bins, stock, or other goods are safely transferred between levels without damage.

Most of our standard mezzanine goods lifts operate to a maximum of two floors however,  We can offer goods lifts that are capable of travelling up to three floors.

Standard mezzanine lifts require a 20Amp/240 Volt 50Hz single-phase electrical supply. This should be determined in a double pole switch.

If circuit breakers are employed in the system, then they must be able to cope with the surge of an electrical motor. Lifts can also be supplied as 415 Volt, 3 phase units where required.

Before the project begins, one of our team will undertake a full site survey to determine the exact specification required.

Our goods lifts typically have a lead time of 4–6 weeks from placing the order.

This depends upon site circumstances, duty, and model of lift.

A good rule of thumb is that it becomes more difficult to make a MezzLift over 4.0 metres and so standard prices will not apply.

Depending on what type of MezzLift you are looking for, the maximum weight can differ.

For example, a Heavy Duty MezzLift can lift a maximum of 1000kg, whereas a MezzLight can only lift a maximum of 250kg.
