Bellezza Artisan Stone Surfaces in San Antonio, Texas, specializes in designing and manufacturing custom stone fabrications. Among other projects, they design and install marble and granite walls to cover fireplaces in private homes.
Heavy Lifting in Private Homes
The limited space in private homes presents a challenge and results in difficult and heavy lifting for the installation team. Moving a large stone wall from the truck, through the house, and into the living room where it needs to be installed is no easy task. The walls for fireplaces are made of marble and granite, materials that are both large and extremely heavy to handle. The installation of a fireplace wall typically takes three to four days, which means a prolonged disruption in the private homes.
As a result, Bellezza Artisan Stone Surfaces have been searching for equipment to assist with the heavy lifting and streamline their workflow. The equipment needed to be suitable for use in private homes, on delicate floors like wood and carpets, and compact enough to navigate tight spaces typical for private homes.
A strong lifter is the ideal solution
The team at Smartlift found the perfect helper. The SL 609 HLE allows the team to transport heavy stone walls through private homes and install them – all without polluting the air or damaging the floors. All Smartlift models are battery-powered, making them suitable for indoor use, and they are available with white tires that leave no marks on delicate wood floors or light carpets.
The robust multi lifter, SL 609 HLE, can lift up to 1,320 lbs and reach a height of 163 in. It is easy to transport alongside the large stone walls, taking up only 33 x 88 in during transport. When in use, the lifter is compact, making it perfect for manoeuvring in small rooms and through narrow doorways.
When the installation team now arrives at a house to install a fireplace wall, they are happy to complete the job without leaving with back pain or sore shoulders.
Additionally, it enhances customer service: with the help of the Smartlift, the entire operation is now completed in just one and a half hours, allowing the customer to enjoy their new fireplace the very same evening.
