Vacuum Door Lifting

Here at H&S Lifting Solutions, we know the benefits of using vacuum lifters, when lifting and moving heavy doors.

Typically, doors are large and heavy, not featuring any hardware from which to lift. This can compromise the health and safety of the lifter and potentially damage the door as well. This is even more true for panels of glass. This is exactly why Glass Vacuum Lifting Equipment and Door Lifting Equipment can revolutionise your work day.

Vacuum Door Lifting Equipment

Thankfully, there is a solution in the form of our range of vacuum lifters for windows and doors. They are perfect for lifting and moving a range of non-absorbent materials, including glass and wood. Different material shapes can also be raised, from entirely flat to oddly shaped. A range of vacuum cups and glazing slings are also available.

If you’re looking for equipment to assist with glass lifting, wooden door lifting, box lifting or sack lifting, send over your details and contact our team today for a quote.

Our lifters are incredibly versatile and can assist with moving and transport the following types of doors:

  • Fire Doors
  • Composite Doors
  • UPVC Doors
  • Solid Core Doors
  • Wooden Doors

Main Features of Door Lifting Equipment

  • Lifts objects between 250kg and 1000kg
  • The safety system slowly lowers the load to the ground in case of power loss
  • Visual and audible warning if a fault occurs with the Vacuum Door Lifters
  • Vacuum suction circuit continually monitored for safety

Benefits of Vacuum Door Lifters

The key benefit of using a vacuum lift for moving doors or glass is that it puts staff at less risk of developing an injury through improper manual handling. They are better than manual lifting because there is less risk of damaging materials and yourselves, which is particularly important for glass panels. They also help improve productivity and allow finer control of the movement and placement of objects.

Section Plates Available for Lifting

The section plates you choose depends on the type of material you need to lift. For example, you may need a different quantity of section plates of different sizes or shapes. Section plates are available in circular, square or oval shapes. Vacuum lifters can use as little as two plates, although as many as sixteen can be used.

It’s also important to consider the material of the plate. For example, you will need oil proof and vulcanised rubber plates. Other types of plates are available, such as temperature resistant, anti-slip and anti-stain or sections for irregular surfaces.
