Need to transport goods and materials throughout a building?

Install one of our freight elevators to make the process easier.

Premier offers high quality freight elevators by Savaria that can make the process of transporting materials more efficient. Applicable to many industries.

Freight elevators have a high load-bearing capacity and are designed to withstand tougher working conditions. They increase the safety of the workplace and can reduce employee injury by doing the heavy lifting for the workers. Freight elevators will not reach high speeds due to safety concerns. The high strength, large carrying capacity, stable lifting, and convenient installation and maintenance make the freight elevator a necessity for any business operating at multiple levels.

Common industries that benefit from freight elevators include industrial, agricultural, manufacturing, warehousing, and transportation. Premier Elevator & Lift offers Class A freight elevators. Class A is the General Freight Loading Class and is ideal for distributed loads where the weight of a single item is not more than ¼ of the capacity of the elevator. The load is moved on and off the platform manually or by hand trucks. A freight elevator can help your business run more safely and efficiently.
