GLE cabin lift
Improlift Plus
The Improlift Plus is a cabin lift with automatic sliding doors, built for homes and commercial premises where the space for a lift is at a premium. It carries 250, 325 or 400kg up to 21 metres, in a masonry shaft or in its own self-supporting structure, and needs a pit of just 120mm, or none at all with a ramp.

A lift with automatic doors, without the building work
The Improlift Plus travels inside its own self-supporting modular structure, which forms the shaft and takes up no more room than its own footprint, so there is no pit to excavate and no major building work. Where a shaft already exists, it can be installed in traditional masonry instead.
The structure comes in a wide choice of RAL colours and finishes, including glazed panels and stainless steel, and it can be installed indoors or outdoors. Cars are made from 750 to 1,100mm wide and 785 to 1,400mm deep, with automatic telescopic or centre-opening doors from 600 to 900mm wide.
A full height 2D optical barrier across the door opening gently stops the doors closing if it detects anything in the way, and the lift runs from a normal domestic single phase supply at Class A energy efficiency. An optional battery reserve lets it finish its journey if the power fails.
