Project Background
A commercial tower in Riyadh required a heavy-duty cargo lift to move maintenance equipment, building supplies, and service materials between multiple levels. The lift had to be reliable in a demanding commercial environment and integrate with the building’s service operations.
Challenges
- High temperatures: Outdoor and partially exposed installation areas experience extreme heat
- Building integration: The lift had to fit within the tower’s service shaft dimensions
- Reliability: Continuous service use demanded dependable, low-maintenance equipment
- Safety: Public building use required robust safety features and compliance
Solution
GP LIFT delivered a heavy-duty hydraulic cargo lift engineered for commercial building service:
- Capacity: 5 tons
- Travel height: 12m serving five service levels
- Platform size: 2200×2200 mm
- Structure: Four-post heavy-duty design with full mesh protection
- Hydraulic station: With cooling for operation in high ambient temperatures
- Safety: Explosion-proof valve, interlock doors, and overload alarm
Custom Features
- Enhanced cooling package for reliable operation in desert heat
- Weather-resistant finishes for partially exposed areas
- Control panels at every level with emergency stops
- Full mesh enclosure for enhanced safety in a public building
Results
- Reliable service access across five building levels
- Handles heavy maintenance equipment and supplies with ease
- Operates reliably in high-temperature conditions
- Installed and commissioned within the planned schedule
“The cargo lift handles our heaviest service loads and runs reliably even in the heat. It has become essential to our building operations.” — Facilities Manager, Riyadh Tower Management
