Guldmann Hoists

The range of hoists from Guldmann now incorporates the NEW GH1

The Guldmann GH1 is a NEW strong, simple, ceiling mounted lifting module, it was developed specifically for the needs of home care and designed to meet the full range of day-to-day lifting needs in private homes, sheltered housing and care homes. It is a small neat design that will fit well in most locations. In use the GH1 is easy and intuitive to operate.

The GH1 provides safe and comfortable transfers, its compact size needs very little space and it is compatible with the Guldmann GH-rail systems and Guldmann Slings and accessories. The hoist can be personalised for the home environment, the side panels of the module can be fitted with a choice of four standard decor panels or customised by end users in the same way as the GH3 rails. Being easy to decorate helps the hoist system contrast, match or blend into the interior design.

Unlike the GH3, the GH1 hoist does not charge through the rail, but docks and charges through the handset. Recharging normally takes 2 – 3 hours, and on a full charge the GH1 module will complete in the region of 55 lifts (at 85kg each) this can last up to two weeks at 4 lifts per day.

The GH1 module is based on the innovative and robust technologies of GH3 lift system motors with a SWL of up to 205kg. The GH1 module is not only powerful but also fast utilising modern NiMH battery technology to power the hoist, allowing lifting and transfer operations to be carried out smoothly and quickly - leaving carers, more time to care.

Emergency stop and lowering are incorporated and simple to use.

Guldmann GH3

The GH3 ceiling hoist system is a state-of-the-art system meeting the changing needs of our customers in today's demanding professional healthcare environments.

This system has the big advantage that it is always ready for use – the lifting modules are continuously charged on the rail. These lifting modules move quietly using only a minimum of current. Transitions between rail sections are virtually unnoticeable, for maximum smoothness. Advanced digital systems provide numerous additional functions, including an integrated weighing system, service management and documentation of usage.

All these capabilities combine to make the GH3 ceiling hoist system the most cost-effective solution currently available for heavy-duty use in any professional care environment.

GH3 rails can be mounted on ceilings, walls or supporting pillars, with unsupported spans of up to 8 metres. Interconnecting elements such as gates and switch tracks make it easy to configure rail set-ups for virtually any building, space or requirements.

The discreet, modern design can be made to blend into any style of architecture, interior or décor – either in new structures or as a retrofit. GH3 lifting modules can lift users weighing up to 350 kg with one lifting strap and 500 kg with two straps. Lifting speeds are up to 60 mm/sec.

All Guldmann systems have proven to have an amazingly long service life. That’s why they have been designed so the new GH3 lifting modules can be used on existing GH2 rail systems.

Wealden Rehab

Wealden Rehab has over 15 years’ experience in the design, installations and servicing of ceiling hoist systems. We also supply other fixed and mobile healthcare equipment which makes us a perfect partner for projects where whole system design is required.

We work in the community for local councils, for hospitals and schools, and are the first choice for many specialist architects and case managers whilst we are often assist OTs working for individuals with catastrophic injuries.

We are also specialist contractors working with the ‘Changing Places’ campaign in the UK and have completed many projects up and down the country.

We are proud to have been chosen as the UK distributor for the Golift hoist system. The GoLift is currently the smallest hoist unit in the world which makes it particularly desirable for those environments with low ceiling heights.
The GoLift achieves its class-leading dimensions by utilising PZ lift motors (from the automotive industry), nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) batteries, and metal gear-trains. This design allows even the smallest unit to lift up to 318kg (50st) effortlessly.

Our modular GoTrack system components allow us to design and install a wide selection of track layouts so that environments are covered in the most efficient way. 3 different track profiles, XY (room cover) trolley systems, curves, gates and turntables are all within our portfolio.

The GoLift has been designed to be easy to clean – no sharp corners or nooks, and weighs just 4.6kgs making it easy to install and service.
The GoLift has an innovative control system – the handset is designed with capacitive touch. Like a mobile phone, the handset is operated by buttons which react to touch rather than needing pressure. This enable those with limited dexterity to maintain independence by operating the lift and lower process. The handset is also equipped with a magnetic clip and allows the controller to be docked on the spreader bar for easy access during the transfer.

For an on-site evaluation of the GoLift, a no-obligation survey or a discussion about how we can help you then call us, email us or visit us!
