What We Install

Home Lifts

Compact screw-driven or platform lifts that need a shallow pit and little headroom, ideal for existing villas.

Glass Panoramic Shafts

Steel and laminated glass shafts that become an architectural feature.

Maintenance & Backup

Maintenance contracts, battery rescue for power cuts and stainless finishes for salt air.

Lifts for villas and penthouses in Chetumal

Licences come from Othón P. Blanco municipality with established procedures; condominium and commercial buildings add their own administration rules. We work with screw-driven, hydraulic and machine-room-less systems and choose the one that fits the house, the stops and the budget.

Shafts, power and maintenance in Chetumal

Chetumal is about four hours from our workshops but has good local suppliers, so materials are bought locally and labour costs are lower than in the north. Shaft, power feed and emergency battery are coordinated with the building permit, and maintenance visits are scheduled from day one.

Climate and exposure in Chetumal

Chetumal sits on a bay, so salt is milder than on the open coast, but heat and humidity are high and the city has been hit by hurricanes.

Water and utilities in Chetumal

The municipal network covers most of the city, with hard water that makes filters and softeners useful in bathrooms and kitchens.

Usually yes. Screw-driven and platform lifts need only a shallow pit and little headroom; we open the slabs, reinforce the structure and finish the shaft. A structural check comes first.
