If you are a school, house of worship, or theater in need of theatrical or architectural lighting instruments, but your ceiling or building structure is not accessible - then the ViaLift is for you.

The ViaLift raises and lowers lighting instruments very simply at the touch of a button, thereby eliminating the need for lifts, ladders, catwalks, and expensive crew time for simple lighting maintenance work.

• Components: Each packaged lighting hoist consists of an aluminum main frame containing a cable collector and motorized winch, with electrical connector strip, raceway, or dimmer stick as specified, and a stage pipe batten for mounting your lighting fixtures. The ViaLift can be customized to your specific needs.
• Installation: The ViaLift has four individual 7x19 cables that mount directly to the building structure. Appropriate mounting hardware is included. The ViaLift's cable collector - fitted above the main unit - carries power and control for both lighting and lift. This is easily connected to your building's system by an electrical contractor.
• Control: For smaller installations of one to four units we recommend a key operated receptacle panel with a hand-held pendent which operates one unit at a time. For larger installations we also offer a touch screen computer system which allows the user to group units together and operate them at the same time. Multiple positions for each lift can be pre-set.
• Quality:
  • The ViaLift is designed, manufactured, and assembled in the USA.
  • Meets all NFPA Electrical Standards for Industrial Machinery.
  • Submittal drawings and specifications are available upon request.
  • One year limited factory warranty.
  • Yearly inspection by factory authorized technician is available.
