Jeeves dumbwaiters for homes and restaurants
A dumbwaiter is a very small freight elevator built to carry objects, not people. Restaurants, hotels, labs and hospitals have long relied on them, and today they are a popular addition to the home, where they move groceries, luggage, recyclables and shopping bags from floor to floor.
We install the Jeeves Econolift for homes and the Jeeves Pro for commercial buildings.
The Jeeves Econolift takes the carrying and lifting out of your day while staying within budget.
Our residential dumbwaiter is a space-saving answer when a home elevator is not an option.
The Jeeves Pro line is built for high-volume commercial use.
Hauling shopping bags, laundry baskets or firewood up a flight of stairs is tiring and, for many people, unsafe. Nationwide Lifts of New York fits Jeeves dumbwaiters in houses, restaurants and offices around Albany, Glens Falls and Poughkeepsie.
New construction and remodels are the ideal time to add one, yet plenty of our installations go into finished homes. A site visit lets us identify the best route for the shaft and prepare a written quote.
The price depends on capacity, the number of stops, the travel distance and how much carpentry the shaft needs. Our article on dumbwaiter cost sets out the main factors. If people need to move between floors too, consider a home elevator or the LUMA shaftless elevator.
Two stops is the most common arrangement, but a dumbwaiter can serve more floors as long as the stops line up one above the other.
Modern electric dumbwaiters are designed to run quietly, and most people find them no more intrusive than a household appliance.
If you regularly carry loads between floors, or the stairs are becoming difficult, yes. A route from the garage or basement to the kitchen is the most popular.
Yes. Commercial dumbwaiters move food, dishes, supplies and files between floors and save staff many trips on the stairs.
