The Applications of a Dumbwaiter Make Everyday Chores Safer and Easier

When you have specific mobility needs, you may need extra help moving items between your home's levels. A custom home dumbwaiter can make your home more accessible and give you the independence you need. It also simplifies chores for people who support you by helping them transport laundry, groceries and other objects. With a residential dumbwaiter, you can stop carrying heavy items up and down stairs. As a result, you can stay safe from muscle strain, collisions and falls.

A dumbwaiter in your home can help you easily transport:

The Homewaiter can also work with commercial-grade swing and slide-up doors. Choose a variety of finishes for your dumbwaiter's collapsible cab gate, or buy it without a gate where allowed.
