On a sloping lakefront lot, the kitchen may be a full floor above the walkout level and the dock. See dumbwaiters for lakefront homes with a walkout.

Need to Carry People?

A dumbwaiter is for goods only. Our stair lifts and home elevators are the answer when someone in the house finds the stairs difficult.

Dumbwaiter FAQ

Where is a dumbwaiter usually installed?

Between a garage or basement and the kitchen is the most common route.

Can it serve more than two floors?

Yes, as long as the openings line up vertically.

Can a dumbwaiter be added to an older home?

Often, yes. Closets, a pantry or a former laundry chute can provide the route.

Is it safe for a home with children?

Yes. Doors are locked unless the car is at that level.
