    Vertical Conveyors, also called VRC鈥檚 or Vertical Reciprocating Conveyors, move materials in warehouses, loading docks, factories, industrial plants, storage facilities or anywhere that products need to move vertically from one level to another. Although often called freight elevators, they are not elevators and thus are exempt from restrictive elevator codes. Vertical Conveyors provide safe and efficient access to mezzanines, basements, balconies and between levels in multi-story buildings. They move weight from 1 to 200,000 lbs in a single lift and from as little as 4 feet to over 200 feet. Vertical Conveyors are custom built for your needs.

  • Rail Lifts

    A Rail Lift is suitable for loading dock and warehouse facilities that lack the space for a conventional dock lift. They are easy to relocate and install quickly. Rail lifts are a cost-effective, powered loading dock solution when a surface-mount lift is required. They are designed to meet capacities in most applications.
