DOPPLER Solutions in Germany

A range of lift types is examined.

Germany is one of the largest consumer markets in Europe, in both population and purchasing power, as well as one of the largest economies in the world. Factors such as the rapidly growing construction sector and rising regulatory requirements offer immense growth opportunities in forthcoming years. Germany’s elevator and escalator market size is projected to expand at a compound annual growth rate of 3%-4%, according to market research. Trust, loyalty, familiarity, quality and security are core consumer values in Germany. It’s also worth noting that, due to competitiveness in the German marketplace, buyers can afford to be picky and demanding. To meet their expectations, DOPPLER offers its many years of experience and technical expertise to fulfill a variety of needs and requests. 

Lift Steel Structures

Older buildings may have appealing stairs and many floors, but sometimes lack a lift to facilitate transportation. The lack of a shaft in these buildings can be bypassed by retrofitting a lift in a steel shaft frame. DOPPLER’s steel structures are a flexible solution for all sorts of buildings — new and existing — when the walls are not considered strong enough to support a wall-mounted model or when constructing a load-bearing wall is out of the question.

The steel structure is built in a way that is well-suited to new buildings, where construction speed and costs are the main concerns. Steel structures are suitable for both interior and exterior installations. They have an orthogonal or square configuration, and the client can choose between glass and epoxy panels as cladding, depending on technical and aesthetic requirements.

DOPPLER takes a personal approach to each project to ensure all specifications are reflected in the delivered product and it is in compliance with the latest EU regulations. There is a wide range of colors and finishes to design these highly customized projects. Let’s embark on a journey to Germany and take a closer look at some of DOPPLER’s solutions there.

This interior, square, steel, self-supporting shaft structure incorporating multi-colored glass cladding enriches the aesthetics of this furniture store in Hilden. It complements the store’s style and is harmonized with the surrounding elements. This project blends comfort, safety and design.

This exterior, square, steel shaft structure combined with glass cladding was installed in a private residence in Holzhausen. The transparency of the glass allows light to diffuse into the panoramic cabin and produces an elegant ambiance, while protecting the lift hoistway. It’s a functional and stylish solution.

This private practice office in Biedenkopf was equipped with an exterior, square, steel shaft structure combined with glass cladding. It’s an example of safety meeting aesthetics.

This clothing store in the central market of Dusseldorf required a square panoramic lift for the comfortable transport of people. The metal structure is integrated into the indoor environment, thanks to the possibility of different customization options implemented in harmony with the cabin. Thus, the lift becomes an integrated interior design component. The steel structure is a self-supporting structure with adjacent entrances (90°).

An interior, square, steel shaft structure combined with steel plate cladding was installed at this industrial building in Haan to facilitate cargo transport. This lift was built to withstand every hardship and satisfies even the most demanding functionality requirements.

Goods and Car lifts

Other commonly requested products in Germany are goods/cargo and car lifts. They are highly customized, enabling clients to fit the product to their needs and requirements. Goods lifts play a vital role in the transport of heavy loads. There are a lot of different types of goods lifts for multiple uses. Car lifts provide a solution for transporting vehicles between floors or when more parking options are needed but space is lacking. Below are some DOPPLER goods/cargo and car lift projects in Germany.

A DOPPLER cargo lift was installed at a public vocational school in Biedenkopf to facilitate goods transport and ensure safety, riding comfort and functionality.

This car lift was installed in a business service center in Grunwald. The construction of the DOPPLER car lift was thought out to the most minuscule detail to facilitate the transportation of every vehicle with safety, ensuring secure entry and exit.

Conclusion

The German market is demanding and a great example of where the need for customized and special projects is widespread. DOPPLER works to support German customers’ technical specifications and aesthetic preferences to provide the desired solutions.
