McGrath Industries Domoflex platform has recently been installed at the new JB Hi-Fi Hastings store, providing seamless access to a newly developed mezzanine level. Designed to integrate into a tight retail environment, the Domoflex proved an ideal solution.
Retail fitouts often present constraints around space, noise, and installation time. The Domoflex addresses these challenges with a lightweight, self-contained structure that requires no major building works, allowing it to be installed efficiently without disrupting ongoing store operations.
At JB Hi-Fi, this meant the lift could be introduced into an existing footprint with minimal modification, providing safe and efficient vertical access between the two shop floors.
Key Features That Made the Difference
The Domoflex stands out as a versatile and user-friendly system, particularly suited to commercial retrofits:
- No pit required – simplifying civil works and reducing installation complexity
- Electrical screw drive system – delivering smooth, reliable operation with low maintenance
- Machine-room-less (MRL) design – eliminating the need for additional plant space
- Quiet operation (<45 dB) – ideal for customer-facing retail environments
- Panoramic, open platform design – enhancing visibility and maintaining store aesthetics
