Residential Models
Automatic Brake (non-geared)

The ultimate in simplicity and value.  Whitco hand-powered dumbwaiters are virtually unchanged from the original turn-of-the-century designs.

Choose the residential non-geared models for lighter weight loads typically found in private homes. They will provide many years of trouble-free service to last the life of your home.  

The non-geared drive system is one-to-one, so for every pull on the rope, the dumbwaiter travels exactly that distance. For heavier loads and higher travels, consider the commercial geared models which will give you some mechanical advantage through the gearing.
