ALMAS LIFTS manufactures specialized hospital lifts – stretcher elevators, bed lifts, and patient lifts – engineered around the unique demands of healthcare: deep cabins that accommodate stretchers and hospital beds with attendants, exceptionally smooth and jerk-free travel for patient comfort, precise floor leveling for trolley movement, and hygienic, easy-to-disinfect interiors. With 25+ years of experience serving hospitals, nursing homes, diagnostic centres, and clinics, we understand that in healthcare, an elevator is not a convenience – it is critical infrastructure that must work flawlessly, 24 hours a day.

A hospital lift is engineered around the stretcher and hospital bed, not just passenger count. Cabins must be deeper than standard lifts, doors wider, and – most critically – travel must be exceptionally smooth: sudden jerks that a healthy passenger barely notices can be harmful to post-operative patients, cardiac cases, and patients on drips and monitors. Leveling accuracy matters equally – even a small step at the landing makes trolley transfer unsafe.
Hygiene drives material choice: stainless steel surfaces, minimal joints, and washable finishes support infection control protocols. Finally, reliability is non-negotiable, which is why we equip hospital lifts with Automatic Rescue Devices and back them with priority AMC response. Whether you run a nursing home with one stretcher lift or a multi-specialty hospital needing bed lifts, passenger lifts, and service lifts, ALMAS designs to healthcare standards from day one.
A stretcher lift cabin typically needs 2000–2400 mm depth depending on your stretcher/bed sizes. Share your equipment dimensions and we’ll size the cabin with attendant space included.
A stretcher lift is sized for wheeled stretchers with 1–2 attendants; a bed lift is larger, moving full hospital beds with equipment and staff – typically 20–26 person capacity.
With an Automatic Rescue Device, the lift automatically reaches the nearest floor and opens doors during power failure. For continuous operation, the lift can be connected to your hospital's DG backup.
Yes – with priority breakdown response for healthcare facilities, scheduled preventive maintenance, and genuine spares to maximize uptime.
Involve your lift manufacturer at the architectural stage. Stretcher lift shafts sized correctly on the drawing cost nothing extra; correcting an undersized shaft after construction is expensive and sometimes impossible. Share your floor plans with our team early – we’ll advise shaft sizes, lift positioning for ward-to-OT-to-ICU flows, and the right mix of bed, passenger, and service lifts for your bed count. This consultation is free, and it routinely saves our hospital clients significant cost and redesign later.
