Custom Orion lift at Burleigh Pavilion, Gold Coast.
A custom Orion lift at Burleigh Pavilion on the Gold Coast. The shaft was tight and the structure already stood, so the lift had to be made for the venue rather than the other way round.
Project Overview
A custom Orion for a tight commercial shaft
Burleigh Pavilion, Gold Coast, Queensland
Burleigh Pavilion sits on the Gold Coast foreshore, and putting a lift into a working venue is a different job from putting one into a new house. The shaft was tight, the structure was already there, and the lift had to fit both.
The answer was a custom Orion, built in Brisbane at Aussie Lifts and installed into that existing shaft. This is commercial work: a venue lift for public access, not a home lift.
If you are planning a commercial lift for a venue, club or fit-out with similar constraints, this is the kind of brief the Orion is built for.
See the original install Reel on the @aussielifts Instagram.
The brief
Fit a commercial lift into Burleigh Pavilion where the shaft was tight and the building already stood. The venue needed the lift; the structure was not going to be rebuilt around one.
What we installed
A custom Orion, manufactured at our Brisbane factory and installed into the existing shaft. The Orion is the commercial model we build for venues and clubs when a standard residential platform will not do.
Key points
- Model: Orion (custom)
- Application: commercial venue, Burleigh Pavilion
- Shaft: tight, in existing structure
- Built: Aussie Lifts, Brisbane
Why a custom Orion
Commercial venues rarely have a clean empty shaft waiting. When the opening is tight and the building is already finished, the lift has to be designed around what is there. That is ordinary Orion work for us.
