Hercules Domino – 400kg Heavy Duty Materials Handling Stairlift Valet

Made in Italy – the highest quality automatic stairclimber trusted by Australia’s public sector and government for decades

The Domino 400 is designed, engineered, and built in Italy to the highest European quality standards, the preferred stairclimber of Australian public sector, government, and institutional clients where precision, reliability, and zero-damage operation are non-negotiable.

400kg Capacity. Fully Automatic. Zero Operator Effort: The Domino’s revolutionary automatic tilt feature keeps the load perfectly upright and centred above the tracks at all times — no manual balancing, no toner spills from photocopiers, no risk of loads shifting mid-climb. The operator simply controls movement with a proportional remote joystick while the Domino does all the hard work.

Available in Three Capacities:

  • 160kg – ideal for lighter institutional and government deliveries

  • 300kg – perfect for mid-range commercial and public sector loads

  • 400kg – maximum capacity for the heaviest government and industrial equipment

Revolutionary Auto-Balancing Technology:

  • Fully automatic load levelling – load stays perfectly vertical at all times

  • Centre of gravity always maintained above the tracks – balanced and safe on every staircase

  • Load spread evenly across multiple stairs – no stress concentration on individual steps

  • Automatic tilt can be switched off for exceptionally tight spaces – machine behaves as a conventional hand truck

  • Rotates on its own axis – tight landings and confined spaces are never a problem

  • Remote proportional joystick control – operator stays safely separated from the cargo

Non-Marking. Non-Scratching. Zero Surface Damage:

  • Unique hard-wearing non-scratching crawler tracks

  • Safe on marble, timber, tiles, stone, and the most delicate heritage surfaces

  • Non-marking tracks leave zero marks on any floor or stair surface

  • Safe for outdoor use over uneven surfaces on integrated big wheels or wheeled base accessory

  • The valet of choice for heritage buildings, government facilities, and prestige properties

Extraordinary Lithium Battery Life – 1,500 to 2,000 Steps Per Charge: The Domino 400 delivers the longest battery life of any stairclimber available for hire in Australia – up to 2,000 steps on a single lithium charge. For high-volume government deliveries, multi-storey building access, and all-day valet use, nothing comes close. Lead-acid battery option also available for locations where lithium batteries are not permitted.

Independently Powered Caterpillar Tracks:

  • Two independently powered electric motor tracks for maximum manoeuvrability

  • Navigate narrow corridors, tight landings, and confined spaces with ease

  • Climbs round steps, square steps, marble, timber, and outdoor uneven surfaces

  • Compatible with optional wheeled base accessory for outdoor traversal

Applications

The Domino range of 160, 300 and 400 kg lift capacity, all have automatic load levelling, ensuring the load is always kept in the horizontal plane, and above the tracks.

Keeping the carried load level is perfect for sensitive freight that cannot be tipped on its side such as multi-functional printers, medical devices, wood fire heaters, air conditioners, stoves and pizza ovens.

Maintaining the centre of balance above the tracks keeps the Domino stable, throughout the climb. The operator does not need to balance the load making it perfect for heavy and all tall items like vending machines, switchboards and commercial refrigerators.

Another advantage of the domino is it low centre of gravity, making it ideal for heavy irregular shaped objects, for example: electric motors, gearboxes, pumps, floor sander and safes.
