The Value & The Costs of
Dumbwaiter
The Value
In spite of its outdated name, a dumbwaiter in your custom modern home doesn’t have to be a relic of the past—it can be a practical and luxurious addition to your space, with a range of applications to suit diverse lifestyles. Originally used to discreetly move food and beverages between different floors, dumbwaiters can also be used by busy professionals and families with multi level homes to effortlessly move laundry, groceries, or even heavy items such as suitcases or firewood from basement storage or a garage. In homes with entertainment areas or home theaters, a dumbwaiter becomes a convenient way to refill on snacks and drinks. You and your guests can enjoy uninterrupted movie nights or gatherings without the inconvenience of constant trips to the kitchen. With a simple push of a button, snacks and beverages are effortlessly delivered, enhancing the hosting experience and ensuring everyone's comfort.
The Costs
Costs will also vary dramatically if this is being retrofitted into an existing residence because the multi-floor cavity may interfere with existing structural elements. On the contrary, designing these into new, modern townhomes or residences requires planning but may ultimately reduce costs for the dumbwaiter itself. The costs of a modern dumbwaiter also depend on the intended use, size, and location. Additionally, you may choose between a manual or electric model, depending on what you want to use your dumbwaiter for—this, of course, will affect the costs of the dumbwaiter in your modern custom home.
