Stop carrying trays up the stairs. A dumbwaiter moves food, crockery, linen, files and stock between floors in seconds — quietly and safely. IET supplies, installs and maintains dumbwaiters and small service lifts across Qatar.
A dumbwaiter is a small goods-only lift in a compact shaft, sized for what a person would otherwise carry — plated meals, crockery, linen, files or stock — running between floors in seconds so no one takes it up the stairs.
The main decision is how it is loaded: a counter-level car sits at worktop height so staff slide trays straight in (the usual choice for kitchens), while a floor-level car suits trolleys and heavier stock wheeled in.
Everything else follows the job — a wipe-clean stainless car for food service, fire-rated landing doors, and a quiet drive our Doha team can maintain. Every unit is delivered to recognised safety standards.
Trays, crockery, linen and stock travel between floors in seconds, so staff stop carrying loads up staircases.
Load at worktop height for kitchens, or at floor level where trolleys and crates are wheeled straight in.
Stainless-steel cars built for food service and hygiene routines, and easy to keep clean.
A small footprint slots into a tight space, so the building rarely needs major rebuilding.
A quiet drive that runs without disturbing the service or dining area.
Fire-rated landing doors available to suit the building requirements.

Exact figures depend on model and are confirmed at survey.
We discuss what is carried, how it is loaded and your budget, then recommend the right model.
An engineer surveys the space, sets the loading height and cabin dimensions and returns a specification and price.
We install and commission the unit with minimal disruption to the space.
We hand over a tested unit and set up a maintenance plan to keep it running.
What a person would otherwise carry between floors: plated meals, crockery, linen, files and light stock — a typical 100 kg for food service, up to 300 kg depending on the model.
A counter-level car sits at worktop height so staff slide trays straight in, the usual kitchen choice. A floor-level car suits trolleys and heavier stock wheeled in. We set the right one for your use.
No. Its small footprint slots into a compact shaft or tight space, so the area usually needs no major rebuilding. The survey confirms the exact dimensions.
Yes. We use wipe-clean stainless-steel cabins that suit kitchen and food-service hygiene routines, with fire-rated landing doors to suit the building requirements.
Let us survey your space and specify the right dumbwaiter or service lift for it.
