Project planning

Plan a goods lift or freight elevator around material flow

A goods lift, also called a freight elevator in some markets, must match the items being moved, access points, stops and workflow inside the building. AKE reviews the project information before defining a suitable lift solution.

Details for technical assessment

Transport task

Describe the goods, their typical dimensions and the intended movement between the required stops.

Building and access

Share the number of stops, access arrangement, available space and known building constraints.

Project scope

State the country, building type, project stage and requested scope so the international enquiry can be assessed.

Frequently asked questions

What information is needed for a goods lift assessment?

Useful details include the goods, stops, access points, available space, building type and the requested project scope.

Is every goods lift intended to carry people?

No. The intended use must be stated clearly so the appropriate type of lift solution can be evaluated for the project.

How does AKE prepare a goods lift proposal?

AKE first reviews the submitted project information. Technical configuration and commercial scope are then defined for that project.
