Glynis Brown, Ronyar Kitchen Centre

And we never get bored of the soft close doors – they’re so cool!”

“Hydraulic lifts are extremely reliable. However, in the unlikely event a valve fails or develops a significant leak, there is a risk the electrical re-levelling may be unable to cope, and this can cause the lift to move with the doors open. Gate lock valves - available for any make or model hydraulic lift - will make sure this cannot happen by preventing the lift car from moving downwards.”
Warren Jenchner, Managing Director - Apex Lifts
