Lift System Overview

Lake Shore Tram is the industry leader in providing technological improvements. The only system on the market featuring three braking systems, Galvanized aircraft cable, and two of the three cabling systems use continuous wrap.

We feature the state of the art "Soft" Start & Stop system, the same systems used in modern commercial elevators. This ensures a smooth, relaxing ride.

Lake Shore Tram uses a three-phase heavy-duty electronic motor that allows the passenger car to travel approximately 72 feet per minute, allowing you to reach the waterfront quickly and with ease. Other manufacturers use unreliable winch systems, which are very slow and can take as long as 10, 15, even 20 minutes or more to reach the waterfront.

Our Lake Shore Tram Lift System is built to last. With normal use, a Lake Shore Tram System will provide continuous enjoyment for 40+ years. In fact, many of the early systems installed during the late 1950's are still functioning today. However, since they no longer meet todays safety standards they should be replaced with a new, reliable Lake Shore Tram Lift System to protect your family's safety.

Lake Shore Tram Lift Systems are very economical when compared with a wooden step system to the waterfront. Even when using pressure treated lumber, a wooden step system will usually have to be completely replaced 1 or 2 times during the lifetime of our Lake Shore Tram Lift System.

A Lake Shore Tram Lift System will enhance your property and also improve the value of your property, when a safe, reliable system is in place to reach your waterfront. This is especially true for homeowners who have steep terrain to the waterfront. Your property can easily be changed from Lake-View property to Lake-Access property with the installation of a Lift System!

Lake Shore Tram provides a full two-Year to 15 Year warranty on all materials and workmanshipand 3 years on all electrical components. We also offer a service / maintenance contract to keep your Lift System operating at optimum performance.

Lake Shore Tram has 100's of Lift Systems installed in over 31 states and many international locations.
