Welcome
Wyncliffe Gardens is a vibrant residential neighbourhood in Cardiff. It features a mix of property types, including townhouses and blocks of flats. This community appeals to families and individuals, making reliable access essential for residents. Many residents live on upper floors, highlighting the importance of functional passenger lifts, especially for those with mobility challenges.
Project Overview
Green Elevator Services, a trusted lift solutions provider, approached us to develop and provide a comprehensive modernisation package for several four-floor passenger lifts serving multiple residential blocks at Wyncliffe Gardens. Given the extensive wear and tear since their original installation, these lifts required significant updates to ensure the residents’ safety, reliability, and longevity.
To address the critical need for reliable lift access, we collaborated closely with Green Elevator Services to assess necessary upgrades. Together, we identified vital components requiring replacement:
- Lift Control System
- Hydraulic Pump Unit
- Car and Landing Fixtures
- Door Operator
This proactive approach provided value for the client and allowed Green Elevator Services to replace components nearing the end of their operational life. By doing so, we aimed to minimise maintenance callouts for Green Elevator Services while reducing lift disruption for residents.
Package Specification
We supplied a suite of advanced equipment tailored to meet the project’s needs:
DMG PB4 Lift Control System: The PB4 is DMG’s most advanced lift control system, delivering unmatched performance and flexibility. We specify, build, test, and dispatch our stock PB4 controllers in an average of 14 days, ensuring a rapid turnaround for lift professionals and their clients. Lift professionals also benefit from its straightforward and quick installation, along with the ability to access settings and diagnostics through the embedded PlayPad or the Fusion App (coming soon). Equipped with robust hardware and cutting-edge software, the PB4 meets and exceeds EU Lift Directive requirements. Its continuous data processing helps detect and resolve potential issues before they escalate. This forward-thinking design minimises downtime, making the PB4 the ideal solution for modern lift modernisation projects.
DMG Car and Landing Fixtures: Our DMG ‘Luna’ series offers high-quality, stylish car and landing fixtures. Designed for easy installation, the surface-mounted panels utilise a quick-fixing method that eliminates the need for additional on-site modifications. This system provides a sleek finish while ensuring easy maintenance access.
Biofial Hydraulic Pump Unit: The Biofial hydraulic pump unit is manufactured in compliance with EN 81-20 and EN 81-50 standards, ensuring the highest safety and performance levels. Key features include low noise operation, a long product lifespan, and ease of maintenance. This unit suits high-speed elevators and guarantees smooth movement with a maximum speed of 1 m/sec, including overheating protection and an oil heater.
L&L Lift Door Operator: Our lift door operators are available in an extensive range of kits for compatibility with many different lift door types. The bespoke kits ensure suitability for residential and commercial environments, minimising wiring effort and installation costs. A maintenance-free DC motor guarantees lift doors’ safe, quick, and quiet operation.
