The AmeriGlide Express Dumbwaiter

Dumbwaiters have been used for many hundreds of years. They were previously seen only in large houses and in many cases were seen as a status symbol. A dumbwaiter is like a mini-freight elevator that is used to transport household goods and supplies and have become very popular in medium to large sized homes.

Dumbwaiters are frequently used in commercial settings as well. They are common in large restaurants, hospitals, and hotels. They greatly improve productivity and are used to help cut costs and labor hours. In restaurants they are also used to ensure that food is delivered as quickly as possible.

When installing a dumbwaiter for the home, there are several considerations that must be factored in. They are easier to install in homes as they are being built, but can also be installed in existing homes. They require a straight shaft of about 2’ by 2’ that travels between floors. If you are installing one into an existing home, you will likely want to purchase a unit like the AmeriGlide Express. The AmeriGlide Express has been designed to greatly simplify installation. The car comes pre-installed on the track and the entire drive system is pre-installed on the car.

These innovations make installing the AmeriGlide Express much easier, but it can still be fairly complicated. Most people opt for a professional installation and the innovations made by AmeriGlide greatly reduces the time and cost of the installation.
