We discussed the benefits behind residential dumbwaiters and now we’d like to shed some light on commercial dumbwaiters as well. When some people think of dumbwaiters, they may visualize Victorian mansions, but they have a more significant purpose than merely lowering dishes down to cleaning staff, although they still serve this purpose too. Various organizations use them today to move supplies from floor to floor. Dumbwaiters are a quick and effective way to take away the strain that comes from lifting products, especially heavy products, to different floors. Here are the businesses that benefit the most from dumbwaiters.
Hospital and Doctors’ Offices
Hospitals tend to be huge buildings with various departments and floors. Medication does not necessarily weigh a lot, but it is life-saving. Time is essential when a person needs to heal or is on a strict schedule with their medications. Therefore a dumbwaiter makes sense because of how they quickly transport items from floor to floor.
Dining Establishments
Today, restaurants still use commercial dumbwaiters to lower dishes to cleaning staff or to raise food from the kitchen. For multi-leveled restaurants, carrying trays of food up and down steps can be challenging, even for a skilled foodservice employee. Most of us have been to a restaurant, where, unfortunately, an accident has happened and a waiter or waitress dropped dishes of food. Commercial dumbwaiters help to make moving dishes from floor to floor manageable, safe, and quick. If you’re a restaurant owner, you can look forward to less product loss due to accidents, as well as a lower risk of your employees potentially hurting themselves.
Offices and Banks
Depending on how many floors and departments a business has, it can be quite a challenge to move office equipment from one floor to another. Commercial dumbwaiters make this process more manageable and efficient.
Some banks host a vault below ground. Secure safe access ensures that only the right people are placing money and items from ground safety deposit boxes into a dumbwaiter and prevents wrongful access.
