NZ-Made Lifts Ensure Improved Accuracy and Shorter Lead Times

For the past 20+ years, Powerglide have built more than 450 elevators and installed them the length and breadth of NZ from their boutique factory in Mount Maunganui, New Zealand.

The person who manufactures each elevator for a project will also install it; there is no middle man. With intimate knowledge of the project they’ll deal directly with the designer and the builder to make sure everything runs as smoothly as possible.

Why choose an NZ-made Powerglide elevator?

Powerglide have shorter lead times than the 4-6 month delivery required for lifts manufactured overseas.
A pre-site visit just prior to manufacturing minimises variance between design and build measurements and any possible disruption to the build timeline.
By sourcing directly from other NZ manufacturers, they can source parts as and when they need them.
It's a way to support NZ manufacturing

For projects where a residential or light commercial lift is required, have a chat with the team at Powerglide first. With elevators starting from $36K, a high-quality, affordable NZ-made lift is very accessible.
