The growth of the population and the number of vehicles in cities has meant that urban environments are becoming increasingly saturated. The availability of space has become a precious commodity for both city dwellers and companies with offices in these locations.

This has led to an unprecedented demand for innovative solutions to optimise available space. Among other tools, the vehicle lift The new parking facilities have emerged as a revolutionary response to the problem of the shortage of parking space for vehicles.

Car lifts revolutionise parking

Car lifts represent an efficient and versatile solution for maximising space in congested urban areas where traditional parking is limited or costly. These systems offer a smart alternative to conventional car park and garage entrances, making the best use of available space.

The driver simply drives his vehicle to the lift and, at the touch of a button, can access his parking space or the exit to the outside. This solution is a revolution in buildings or areas where space is very limited, such as in large city centres.

Optimisation of urban space 

The implementation of car lifts offers a number of significant benefits in the optimisation of urban space. Firstly, these systems allow the use of underutilised or small spaces, transforming them into efficient parking areas.

On the other hand, by minimising the need for horizontal space, vehicle lifts contribute to reducing road congestion and improving traffic flow in densely populated urban areas. The introduction of this solution makes use of reduced spaces and avoids leaving the car on the street itself.

Car lifts: An environmentally friendly solution

In addition to their impact on optimising urban space, car lifts also offer significant environmental benefits. They promote efficient use of space and reduce the need to build new parking structures. These systems also contribute to the conservation of the natural environment and the mitigation of uncontrolled urban sprawl.

Also, by encouraging sustainable parking practices, vehicle lifts can help reduce the carbon emissions associated with finding parking spaces in congested urban areas. A practical and sustainable solution for society in general and for users in particular.

Forklift models

Car lifts are divided into two groups according to their specialities, characteristics and requirements. Both are adapted to the needs of each location and each project.

Vehicle lift QHV

The QHV lift is synonymous with performance and reliability. Designed with advanced technology, and complying with the strictest safety regulations, it offers an optimal solution for vertical transport in buildings, offices, garages and any location where space is at a premium.

It can carry up to 6000 kg with up to 24 metres* of travel on the hydraulic model (30 metres on the electric model*). An efficient solution with added safety systems such as vehicle centring, dual switchboard or an emergency pump unit in the event of problems with the main engine.

ECH Vehicle Lift

The car lift model in accordance with the ECH machine directive stands out for its efficiency and versatility. Designed according to the highest quality and safety standards, it is a reliable solution for the vertical transport of vehicles in non-traffic-intensive environments and confined spaces. With a load capacity ranging from 2000 kg to 3500 kg, it is extremely robust and adaptable to a wide range of requirements.

Its compact double column design makes it an ideal choice for garages, car dealerships and other environments where an efficient and safe vehicle lift is required. It has a width of up to 3 metres and has the capacity for vertical transfer of the car and its occupants.

Innovation and versatility: Car lifts for all environments

Car lifts are suited to a wide variety of urban and residential environments, from large, old city centre buildings to small-scale residential complexes. With options ranging from automated systems to customised solutions, these vehicle lifts offer exceptional versatility to meet the specific needs of each project.

Whether optimising space in a residential garage or providing parking in a high-rise commercial building, car lifts offer an adaptable and efficient solution to space shortages in urban and residential environments.
