ABOUT US

Access Foundations and House Lifting offers a one-of -a kind solution for house lifting, foundation repair, house sliding, levelling and basement creation.
Exclusive to Access Foundations, the Atlas HL System offered in New Zealand and the South Pacific, is the culmination of ten years of research and development by our partners Kradle Lift/ Failsafe Houselifting based in North America. It's the safest, most efficient house lifting system available. House lifting can be hazardous, so when lifting a highly valued asset such as someone’s home off its foundations, you want the best equipment available. The core Atlas HLS 5.0 offers peace of mind confidence and the versatility to lift one, two or three story buildings ranging from 45 to 300m2

ABOUT

OUR SYSTEM

With clear span beneath the structure and height of up to 6 meters, excavation equipment such as midsize diggers and large bobcats can be used to offer time efficiencies and head room for specialist equipment, without the danger of collapsing wood stacking or stys. Further benefits of the Atlas 5 HL system is the ability to re-arrange the lifting towers and re-configure the beams to suit each dwelling differently. Most lifts can be undertaken without the complete destruction and excavation of the surrounding section, or even the removal or demolition of internal fittings, as the heavy duty lifting towers and beams are designed for heavy dwellings up to 3 stories. Once a house is lifted, those working onsite are able to move freely beneath it in order to demolish or build without any major obstacles in the way. When using the Atlas HLS 5.0, the house is always on structure and never becomes a live load on timber stys or cantilevered. For added security, safety chains are sometimes used to connect end tower pairs to each other and the Primary Lifting Beams.

The Atlas 5 HLS has also been utilised by the US Government on their offshore and Subarctic operations in Greenland. Forbes magazine recently stated that the Atlas System was a "New Paradigm" in lifting systems in 2019, due to the unique applications it can be used in. We are proud to offer this system in NZ  - you can read the full article here
