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.

GH3 – Discreet, smooth and safe
The GH3 concept is the seventh generation of Guldmann ceiling hoist technology, this breakthrough system is the culmination of 27 years of accumulated know-how and 5 solid years of specialist R&D work.
A completely modular system that provides maximum flexibility with minimum components, rapid cost saving installation and considerable versatility. GH3 rails can be mounted on ceilings, walls or supporting pillars, with unsupported spans of up to 8 metres. The 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.
The GH3’s contemporary yet timeless design blends in well with both modern architecture and existing buildings, making it easy to specify solutions for both new projects and retrofits into legacy spaces.
If your ceiling hoist could talk what would it say?
The GH3+ range offers the care lift management (CLM) technology allowing you to access vital information; time of lifts, how long transfers are taking, the height of the transfers and the weight of the transfers. This tool helps follow-up on work injuries or other situations in which the data history is of interest, improving working environments related to the processes.
GH Combi-lock
The system is used to lock the rails together when two rail systems are linked, resulting in a combined rail system between rooms making it possible to provide an easy, swift and comfortable transfer of a person up to 350kg. The Combi-lock is easy and safe to use, with its simple lock system that automatically connects when the rails are correctly positioned it easily meets any need whilst blending in with surrounding architecture.

Lisclare
Lisclare has been providing moving and handling solutions throughout the UK and Ireland for over 10 years.
Room-to-room transfers, such as from bedroom to bathroom, are easily achieved using the Roomer™ 5200 Cassette Unit.
The user is transferred in a controlled, comfortable & safe manner through a standard door opening without the need for mechanical gate systems or modifications to the room structure.
The Roomer cassette is suspended from one of two belts, only one of which is ever lifting / lowering. To traverse between rooms:
1) Bring the cassette to the centre of the doorway.
2) Connect the “free” tape to the track you wish to traverse to.
3) Rotate the drive switch through 180 degrees
4) Press & hold the “up” button (The manoeuvre can be paused at any time)
5) Listen for the original tape clicking free
6) Remove the original lift tape from the original track - The transfer is complete - The total time is around 3-5 seconds!
There is no requirement for an inter-linking section of rail between adjacent rooms when our Roomer cassette is utilised. The person being lifted is transferred horizontally between the two rooms, safely, smoothly and efficiently. This has several advantages in that the door headers can be installed as per any “standard” installation and the need for specialist “full height” doors is negated with additional cost and time savings. Additionally, because we do not use an interlinking track section between rooms, the fire/smoke integrity of the rooms is not compromised unlike most other overhead systems currently available- the advantages are therefore obvious.
Simple and cost effective installation
No structural modification to the door or doorway is required
Variations in ceiling height is not an obstacle
One cassette unit serves multiple rooms
No need for turntables
Smoke boundary integrity is NOT compromised
Our unique spreader bar also has 3 settings; small, standard & bariatric, which enables clients of different sizes to be lifted using the same cassette.

GH1
Day-to-day lifting

When and where needed
GH1 ceiling and wall-mounted rails are available for particular spans and lifting weights. There is also a free-standing rail system that's ideal for here-and-now lifting needs, and can be set up – and taken down again – in only 10 minutes.
The GH1 lifting module quickly and safely lifts users weighing as much as 205 kg, operated by an easy-to-use hand control.
The lifting module is quickly recharged by placing the hand control in the GH1 recharging dock. A fully charged lifting module can cope with more than 55 lifts of 85 kg.
Both the GH1 lifting module and the rail systems blend easily into the décor of any space in which they are used. The lifting module is delivered with a choice of 4 different covers as standard.
