Building A Manual Dumb Waiter Pulley System
The AmeriGlide Express Plus Dumbwaiter can make daily tasks a breeze when it comes to transporting heavy or bulky items between floors. Whether you're moving laundry to the utility room, sending groceries to the kitchen, or lifting firewood to the living room, the Express Plus' with up to 300-pound weight capacity makes it more than capable for most household or business dumbwaiter applications.
Driven by a chain drive machine that can be mounted at the top or bottom of the hoistway, the Express Plus travels at up to 32 fpm along aluminum guide rails. Instant safeties prevent the car from falling in the event of a chain failure, while the mechanical limit switches provide over travel protection and slack chain detection. For added safety, interlocks come standard, preventing the doors from opening unless the car is present, and preventing the car from moving until the door is closed.
Call/send stations allow you to send and retrieve the dumbwaiter from any level and feature 'car here' and 'in-use' indicator lights.
Not sure if the Express Plus will work for you? We offer custom car sizes and configurations, as well as a number of custom finishes and options.

Pros Excellent quality commercial dumbwaiter at a outstanding price. |
Cons |
Service & Delivery Delivered on time and with no damage or missing parts. |
Over the years we have installed 50+ dumbwaiters in the Atlanta area mainly for food service businesses. We had some problems with our last dumbwaiter supplier so decided to try another product. Very happy we did as the cost was way less, quality better, and easier to install. The special order stainless cab is flawless in construction. A win, win, win. |

Pros Very easy to install. Works great. Price beats all the rest by far. Made by an elevator company. |
Cons |
Service & Delivery On time delivery and installation of the elevator. We installed the dumbwaiter. |
Our client wanted an elevator and dumbwaiter. Used local suppliers in the past however we thought we would go shop this hard because of the overall expense. Found Ameriglide online we are glad we did. They manufacture their own elevators and dumbwaiters and sell direct to builders and contractors cutting out the middle man. Quality of the products is great and the price is outstanding. |

Pros Easy to install, low price point. |
Cons |
If you're looking for a dumbwaiter that will work for a two-story home, the Express Plus is exactly what you need. No other dumbwaiter compares in price to the Express Plus. Custom car sizes are available at no extra charge. Installation is quick and easy. Everything you need in a residential dumbwaiter. |
