What do I need to prepare to install a dumbwaiter in Malaysia?

You need three basic items: shaft space of 1000mm x 1000mm, clear vertical space between floors with no obstruction, and a power supply with isolator (3-phase 415Vac, 20 Amp). A site visit helps confirm if unsure.

How is the dumbwaiter installation process?

We carry out a site visit and take measurements. Upon receiving the deposit, we fabricate the dumbwaiter, install the system, test it, and hand over ready to use.

How long does dumbwaiter installation take?

Manufacturing usually takes 2-3 weeks. On-site installation takes only 2-3 days, including testing and commissioning.

What materials can be used to cover the dumbwaiter shaft?

Common shaft cover options include PU panel, cement board, and expanded metal. Custom materials or designs can also be reviewed on request.

What warranty and maintenance are provided?

We provide a 5 year warranty for the motor and a 2 year warranty for manufacturing defects. Servicing is recommended once every 4-6 months, with urgent breakdown service available.

Can the dumbwaiter carry more than 100kg or be custom sized?

Yes. Methodcon can design dumbwaiters with higher load capacity and custom lift sizes based on your requirements.

FOOD LIFT / DUMBWAITER (100KG MAX Weight)

In Malaysia, ground floor shop space can cost up to 50% more than the floor just above it. For example, one building in KL rents its ground floor at RM9,000/month, while the first floor above is only RM6,000/month.

With a dumbwaiter, you can move your kitchen, storage, or prep area to the cheaper upper floor — and still serve food fast. It only takes about 7.5 seconds to send food between floors.

Methodcon Dumbwaiter makes this easy to achieve.
