Elevator Lift for Seawalls, Piers and Docks

The Elevator Lift® from Golden Manufacturing is the perfect solution for owners who want the benefits of out-of-water boat storage, but either can't have or don't want piles installed on their waterfront. And with recent engineering enhancements, the lift has new configurations and capacities that make it even more adaptable for everything from a PWC to an offshore sportfish boat.

Made in the USA, the Golden Elevator Lift installs on seawalls, embankments or concrete piers, as well as on shoreline wood and steel piles. The lift is manufactured for both the specific location requirements—such as length of travel and angle of installation—as well as the boat itself. Depending on the overall and distributed weight of the vessel, the lift can have a single, two or four tracks. The enhancements include dual-track 24,000 and 27,000 lb. capacity models and a new four-track, 60,000 lb. version.

Golden manufactures the CE-approved Elevator Lift to ISO 9001:2015 standards using only fully welded 6061 T6 marine grade aluminum with 300 series stainless steel fittings and sacrificial zinc anodes. A robust box construction mates the track beam and drive connection. Heavy-duty UV-rated Nylatron wheels on stainless equalizer brackets provide exceptionally smooth operation, especially with heavier vessels.

The power behind an Elevator Lift lies in the reliable Golden Sea-Drive® (U.S. Patent No. 7,850,147). Incredibly safe, it simply cannot back drive and accidentally drop. Each unit provides 8,000 in-lbs. of torque. The 60,000 lb. Elevator Lift relies on the might of a Groves double reduction gear reducer.

Important for a vessel of any weight, custom bunking on the Elevator Lift ensures the hull is fully supported and doesn't cause strain. Carpeted wood or optional aluminum bunks installer-adjust to accommodate a wide range of shapes such as deep-V, steps and/or strakes, as well as inboard and outboard power. The Elevator Lift is backed by Golden Manufacturing's industry-leading warranty: five years on the structural parts, 10 years on the Golden Sea-Drive and two years on all other parts.
