With over 30 years of experience, RAM Elevators + Lifts is proud to help business owners and commercial property developers across North America create buildings designed to welcome and accommodate customers and tenants from all walks of life.

Below, we’ll highlight just a few of the many ways installing a commercial lift boosts your property, as well as the benefits of partnering with RAM. Read on to learn more.
Increased Property Value
One of the most direct benefits of installing a commercial lift is the increase in property value. With universal design and accessibility becoming even more of a priority and legal standard for new construction and significant renovations, a commercial lift is a great way to boost your portfolio value
Potential buyers and investors often look for accessible buildings equipped with modern amenities. The more compliant and accessible (more on this in a moment) your building is, the greater your overall value and marketability.
Improved Accessibility
As we mentioned above, accessibility is no longer a nicety in modern building developments but has become a requirement. Commercial lifts remove barriers for those with mobility needs and concerns, including seniors, wheelchair users, and anyone who may benefit from easier navigation. Our commercial Vertical Platform Lift (VPL) model helps keep your building as accessible as possible and promotes an inclusive environment that can enhance your business’s reputation and attract a diverse clientele.
Enhanced Customer Experience
Customer experience is paramount in any business, and ease of access and navigation is paramount to creating a welcoming and engaging environment for all. Clients and customers appreciate spaces that allow them to interact as needed with convenience and comfort and are far more likely to engage with your company if they feel welcome in your space. Modern lifts like Vertical Platform Lift (VPL) showcase your commitment to accessibility and inclusivity and serve as a silent confirmation that you put the needs of your consumer base first.
Increased Operational Efficiency
While accessibility and accommodation are the bedrock that informs many lift installs, operational efficiency is another common driver. If your business involves the constant transport of items and heavy loads (i.e. retail or warehouse spaces), having the ability to safely and efficiently move stock is crucial to operational success. Lifts remove many risks associated with multi-level transport, save considerable time by lowering the number of trips necessary for each load, and allow employees to work with confidence without needing to slow down. This improved efficiency often translates to cost savings, enhanced space utilization, and a higher standard of operational safety.
Future-Proofing Your Property
Commercial structures benefit from a “future-forward” design that focuses on efficiency both for today and tomorrow. As the needs of your business evolve, having a lift helps ensure that your space will always be ready to accommodate your customers by creating a space that is as adaptable and functional as possible. Lifts also help you future-proof the profitability of your space by making sure it is as attractive as possible to prospective buyers, which protects your investment in the long term should you decide to sell your development down the line.
